RenewSys enhances encapsulant production capacity to 3GW in the middle of an 'exciting time' for Indian solar production

• Indian PV encapsulant as well as backsheet supplier RenewSys has brought its encapsulant manufacturing capacity approximately 3GW with the appointing of a brand-new line in Bengaluru, India, with the business eventually targeting 11GW of capacity via a "phased manner".

Canadian storage space gamer Amp Energy has disclosed that its 800MW battery portfolio in Scotland has actually safeguarded intending consent.

The portfolio results from be operational in April 2024 and will certainly consist of 2 400MW battery facilities, each providing 800 megawatt-hours of energy storage capacity.

Complying with appointments with stakeholders and also regional councils the two sites in central Scotland that form Amp's Scottish Green Battery Complex obtained intending permission from the Scottish Government Energy Consents Unit earlier this month.

The 400MW batteries will be the two biggest grid-connected battery storage space centers in Europe.

The projects will offer reliable grid stability solutions and power administration across the central belt of Scotland consisting of Glasgow and Edinburgh.

The projects are to be located in Hunterston as well as Kincardine.

Over the coming years they are expected to enable as much as 1750 gigawatt-hours per year of additional renewable energy to be generated in Scotland as well as delivered to other regions of the UK, equivalent to allowing 500MW of overseas wind release.

The Hunterston and also Kincardine projects are additionally taking part in National Grid's Scottish Stability Pathfinder 2 tender, which seeks to deal with voltage and stability concerns encountered by the UK electrical power grid.

Amp's facilities will certainly release grid-forming inverter innovation alongside two new synchronous condensers setups which also assist with grid stabilisation.

Amp founder and primary investment officer Paul Ezekiel claimed: "Amp's advancement of tactically situated, transmission-connected utility-scale batteries is helping the GB transmission network driver to offer UK people with a steady and safe and secure carbon complimentary electrical energy system."

This financial investment continues Amp's growth right into Europe that includes growth and possession of solar and wind with large-scale energy storage space facilities in Spain and the UK, alongside development of numerous green hydrogen projects that complement its Asia-Pacific green hydrogen growth tasks.

The Scottish Green Battery Complex will certainly be optimized and also dispatched by Amp X, Amp's proprietary AI-powered digital energy platform.
