The facilities will be located in the municipalities of ...
While China is adding the biggest volumes of renewables, India is growing at the fastest rate among major economies.In terms of technologies, solar PV alone is forecast to account for a massive 80% of the growth in global renewable capacity between now and 2030 – the result of the construction of new large solar power plants as ...
As part of the Biden-Harris Administration's Investing in America agenda, the U.S. Department of Energy, through its Loan Programs Office (LPO), this week announced the closing of a $72.8 million loan guarantee to finance the development of a solar-plus-long-duration-energy-storage microgrid. The microgrid will be located on the Tribal lands of the Viejas (Baron Long) Group of Capitan Grande Band ...
This week, Governor Gavin Newsom announced California has surpassed 150,000 public and shared private chargers installed statewide, including 137,648 Level 2 chargers and 14,708 fast chargers. This announcement comes just weeks after California posted its second highest ever market share in zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) sales. “When it comes to zero-emission vehicle infrastructure, California has ...
Who doesn’t want to save 100% on their electricity bill? Everyone does, but how? Generating electricity through alternate ways like solar PV system can ultimately reduce the electricity bill by up to 90%. But what Solar components like solar inverters and batters should common man select? This is a commonly asked question. And we have come up with the solution. FoxEss Pakistan ...
The U.S. Department of Energy is amending its list of categories of projects which, because they typically do not have significant environmental impacts, qualify for the simplest form of environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). DOE is simplifying the environmental review process for certain energy storage systems such as battery systems, transmission line upgrades, ...
EDF Renewables North America this week announced a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA) for a portion of the Bonanza Solar and Storage project. The carbon-free electricity generated by the 125 MWac solar photovoltaic (PV) system and 65 MW 4-hour Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is guaranteed to begin delivery to SCPPA’s participating ...

As inverter-based resources, including modern wind turbines, solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage systems, continue to drive grid transformation, they may also introduce potential risks to the system, as documented by NERC in multiple disturbance reports. As part of its Inverter-Based Resource Strategy, NERC is dedicated to identifying and addressing these challenges, sharing risk ...
Tensile roof structure Italy-based tensile structure specialists for the solar PV industry A+ Sun Systems last month realized the completion of a new PV plant in Italy with the use of the company’s new SunNet Roof tensile structure. The SunNet Roof installation took just two days to complete and consists of a tensile structure of steel cables that required no ballast and no roof drilling. ...
Global additions of renewable power capacity are expected to jump by a third this year as growing policy momentum, higher fossil fuel prices and energy security concerns drive strong deployment of solar PV and wind power, according to the latest update from the International Energy Agency. The growth is set to continue next year with the world’s total renewable electricity capacity rising to 4 ...
Harnessing Africa's solar energy to produce 50 million tons of green hydrogen a year by 2035 can help secure global energy supply, create jobs, decarbonize heavy industry, enhance global competitiveness and transform access to clean water and sustainable energy. The analysis has been commissioned by the European Investment Bank, the International Solar Alliance and the African Union, with the ...
Duke Energy has been awarded a $22 million utility energy service contract by Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune for the design and construction of a microgrid at the military base.
