Leap, a leading platform for launching and scaling virtual power plants (VPPs), has announced its entry into PJM Interconnection LLC (PJM), the largest wholesale electricity market in the United States. This expansion enables Leap’s technology partners with distributed energy resources (DERs) in PJM territory to unlock new energy market revenue streams while helping reduce ...
Hawaiian Electric is in the process of notifying customers nearing the end of their seven-year enrollment period in certain company legacy rooftop solar export programs that they will soon be transitioned to the new Smart Renewable Energy program.Smart Renewable Energy is the next phase in Hawaiian Electric’s push to bring more customer-sited renewable energy ...
This week marked the release of ‘Enabling New Pumped Storage Hydropower: A guidance note for decision makers to de-risk investments in pumped storage hydropower’ by the International Hydropower Association (IHA).Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH) is the largest form of renewable energy storage, with nearly 200 GW installed capacity ...
This milestone is therefore welcome news for UK gigafactories and the country’s electric vehicle and power storage industries. A secure domestic supply of battery-grade lithium will provide significant environmental and economic benefits, as well as reduce the UK’s exposure to global supply chain disruptions. ...
Researchers at Linköping University have developed it with the vision that the cheap and durable battery should be able to be used in countries where the availability of electricity is limited. The study is published in the journal Energy & Environmental Materials. ...
It is a unique renewable energy source providing baseload electricity, heating, cooling, storage, as well as lithium and other mineral extraction. ...
Itron, Inc. and Schneider Electric are collaborating to improve energy and grid management for utilities as homeowners and businesses increasingly adopt distributed energy resources (DER)—like rooftop solar, battery energy storage, electric vehicles and microgrids—at the grid edge. In a stepwise approach, the companies will integrate their ...
However, rapid progress to a lower carbon economy is under threat from the failure of companies to develop and source sufficient green skills, according to the Green Skills Outlook – new research from Economist Impact, supported by Avangrid’s parent company and Europe’s largest electricity company, Iberdrola. The research explores the impact of the green transition on global ...
At the time, these battery projects from AGL, Origin, Neoen, FRV, Risen and TagEnergy represented a tenfold increase in grid-forming electricity storage capacity operating in the National Electricity Market. As Australia’s electricity system switches to higher rates of inverter-based generation such as wind and solar, new ways ...

One joint project works to improve and decarbonize methods to extract critical minerals needed for renewable energy generation, energy storage and high-tech electronics. Another effort will develop solutions to electrify process heating, a major pathway to decarbonizing heavy manufacturing. Researchers from INL and ASU have previously collaborated on efforts ranging from solar ...
New data show California is surging forward with the buildout of battery energy storage systems with more than 6,600 megawatts (MW) online, enough electricity to power 6.6 million homes for up to four hours. ...
Schneider Electric and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) recently announced the deployment of a distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) on Microsoft Azure to more effectively maintain grid reliability, and accelerate customer adoption of distributed energy resources (DER) such as electric vehicles, energy ...
EVLO Energy Storage Inc. (EVLO), a fully integrated battery energy storage systems and solutions provider and subsidiary of Hydro-Québec, has announced its first utility-scale storage project in the United States. ...
Through its partners, Leap notes that it will bring new value to tens of thousands of electric vehicle, energy storage, and smart building customers in New England.The programs also introduce simplified pathways for customer participation. ...
The landmark policy also requires RPS-eligible sources and zero-carbon resources to supply 100 percent of California's electricity retail sales and electricity procured to serve state agencies by 2045. To keep the state on track, last year Governor Gavin Newsom signed SB 1020 (2022), establishing interim targets of 90 percent clean electricity by ...
Department of Energy (DOE) announced a $38 million funding opportunity for National Laboratories to advance key research and development priorities needed to build a grid that can deliver resilient, reliable, flexible, secure, sustainable, affordable, and equitable electricity. Funding from this Grid Modernization Initiative (GMI) lab call will be used to develop and support the ...
Grid-tied electric vehicles are batteries on wheels that can support grid resilience. ...
Located on the shores of Loch Lochy, between Fort William and Inverness, the Coire Glas project is expected to require a capital investment of over £1.5 billion to construct and, if approved for final delivery, would be the first pumped hydro storage scheme to be built in the UK in 40 years. The project, which received planning consent from the Scottish Government in 2020, would ...
With EV sales projected to exceed 50 percent of total auto sales by 20301, utilities are facing both a rapid rise in electricity demand and an enormous opportunity to tap flexible capacity. ...
