Two Saudi Arabian scientists, Professor Alberto Boretti and Dr. Wael Al-Kouz Prince Mohammad Bin Fahad University, together with Dr. Stefania Castelletto, an Associate Professor from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) University, Australia, announced in a recent publication of IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science that contrary to claims that 100% renewable energy is possible in Saudi Arabia using PV single-axis and battery storage, the assumption is impractical and not feasible.

The glut of home-generated electrical power there holds lessons for the future of distributed energy generation.

VivoPower International PLC has actually completed the electric benefit the 39MWdc Molong Solar Farm, situated outside the town of Orange in New South Wales, Australia.

With renewable energy, led by solar power, potentially composing 80 percent of the development in power generation over the following years, FIMER has actually introduced its new PVS- 10/33-TL three-phase string inverter solutions for industrial and also commercial applications.

Normally, individuals trying to live off the grid use lithium-ion battery systems-- such as Tesla's Powerwall 2-- to save the Sun's power so it can be made use of when it's most required.

A new research study shows how scientists at The Australian National University (ANU) attained a world record in solar cell efficiency.

Scientists in Australia have developed a formula to determine the exact size and also density of quantum dots essential to produce record efficiency in photovoltaic panels.

It will acquire the 45% risk for a nominal sum of A$ 540 ($ 410) and also supply a finance of A$ 3.24 million ($ 2.45 m) to the project to money prices for creating the project, a statement claimed.

The Asia-Pacific region will certainly remain to be the globe's leading centre of lithium-ion cell production for the following decade, yet it won't just be cost decreases in batteries that will certainly drive a 30% decrease in front-of-meter battery storage in key markets China, Australia as well as South Korea.

Renewable resource developer Neoen last month released its prepare for a brand-new project in New South Wales, Australia, called the 'Great Western Battery' which will certainly be amongst the nation's largest battery power storage system centers to date.

Firms have signed framework agreements with AGL to increase project timetables

Single-axis tracker vendor Sunfolding has revealed the consultation of former Renewable Energy Systems Americas president Glen Davis as its brand-new CEO.

Australian AGL Energy Limited has actually picked Wärtsilä, Finland, as one of both providers for their as much as 1,000 MW grid-scale energy storage plans.

Australia has "just months" to settle a redesign of its National Electricity Market (NEM) so customers can profit of raised sustainable generation capability, according to the regulator that gives oversight for energy security and also integrity in the nation.

Australian energy storage space company Redflow has announced the first customer trial of its new Gen3 flow battery system.
