This is confirmed by both the study on the ´New ecological transition challenges for Italian companies´ presented at the 11th edition of the States General of the Green Economy and promoted by the National Council for the Green Economy, at the opening of Ecomondo, and the study entitled ´Disruptive energy scenarios for Italy´ for renewable ...
The U.S. Department of Energy this week (Aug 30) released three reports showing record growth in land-based wind energy, significant expansion of the pipeline for offshore wind projects, and continued decline in the cost of wind energy generation - laying the groundwork for significant future gains as the Biden Administration pursues rapid acceleration of renewable energy deployment to reach its ...
Since 2014, RES has been operating battery energy storage projects. The utility-grade batteries at Minety will store electricity from the national grid at times of low demand and high renewables generation, with the stored energy exported back to the grid at times of high demand and lower renewable electricity generation. ...
That was not always so. One of the largest wind farm repowering projects in Brandenburg, Germany, threatened several times to fail because of the complexity of the task. ...
Recently (10/22), the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced the selection of 13 projects to receive a total of $28 million to advance wind energy nationwide. While utility-scale, land-based wind energy in the United States has grown to 96 gigawatts, significant opportunities for cost reductions remain, especially in the areas of offshore wind, distributed wind, and tall wind. The funding ...
The strategy will ensure that renewable energy accounts for 70% of all electricity use in Ireland by 2030 - more than double current levels. Key to the new strategy is upgrading the power system so that it can handle world-leading levels of renewable energy, supplied through a combination of offshore and onshore wind, along with ...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has released annual market reports documenting data and trends in wind installations, technologies, costs, prices, and performance through the end of 2018 for three sectors: utility-scale land-based, offshore, and distributed wind."Onshore wind energy ...
Electricity demand in the Middle East will triple by 2050, accelerating the growth of renewable energy and triggering the diversification of economies away from fossil fuels.These are some of the findings of DNV GL’s Energy Transition Outlook 2018, which provides an outlook of the global energy landscape up to 2050.By 2050, solar PV will be the ...
By 2030, Orsted aims to install more than 30 GW of capacity, including onshore wind, solar and energy storage projects. "We expect the global market for renewable energy to more than triple towards 2030," Henrik Poulsen, Orsted CEO and President said in a statement. ...
GE Renewable Energy has recently introduced a new onshore turbine platform, Cypress, along with the next model from the platform, GE’s 5.3-158 turbine. ...
Petrobras, Total and Total Eren have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop Brazil’s renewable energy sector. The state-controlled Brazilian firm will work with the French companies to analyse the joint business opportunities in the nation’s solar energy and onshore wind energy segments. ...
The wind farm’s output will allow it to supply clean energy to the equivalent of almost 11,000 homes. ...
Each of the new Zuidwester turbines can generate as much electricity as all 50 turbines of the old wind farm combined. The new Enercon onshore wind turbines are the largest in the world with a hub height of 135 metres and a capacity of 7.5 megawatts (MW) each. ...

Wind energy will likely continue to play a leading role in reaching the EU’s renewable energy targets. However, in some areas wind turbines face social opposition based in large part on the visual impact of wind turbines in the landscape. ...
Dr. Daniel Laird will join the Energy Department's National Renewable Energy Laboratory on Oct. 12 as director of the National Wind Technology Center (NWTC), the country's premier wind energy technology research facility. Laird, who earned his Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the University of Madison-Wisconsin, is relocating from the Energy Department's Sandia National Laboratories in ...
The Canadian province of Nova Scotia, on the country’s Atlantic seaboard, has ended a programme which gave citizens an incentive to produce renewable energy. The decision, which will initially mean lower prices for energy users, is at odds with widespread warnings that renewable energy must rapidly replace fossil fuels. ...
So wind energy should be poised for wider acceptance and tremendous growth. ...
