The dire assessment from the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) made it very clear this past year: To avoid the worst impacts of the climate crisis, a significant shift to clean energy sources must be well underway by 2030.

The globe has actually made the shift from one leading kind of energy to another a number of times. The substitute of fossil fuels with renewables marks the following historical shift. Yet, to make certain sustainability and worldwide climate security, this latest energy transformation requires to occur much faster.

Researchers have discovered a carbon-based cathode material that could replace cobalt in lithium-ion batteries, offering higher energy density and faster charging times.

Another study has highlighted the advantages of combining solar with agriculture. According to the paper, growing chiltepin pepper, jalapeno and cherry tomato in dryland areas of the U.S. under the shade of PV modules is not only possible, but can lead to a better harvest.

While the rest of China’s solar manufacturers take on ever more debt to expand their production lines as fast as possible, Comtec said it is ready to sell off fabs for the right money and will instead focus on project sales and lithium battery and EV business opportunities.

Even more US mentions adopted or progressed new energy-saving targets, but COVID-19 slowed down various other performance efforts, according to the '2020 State Energy Efficiency Scorecard'.

Pre-holiday upkeep in China, virus risks tighten up market Battery prices to stay flat if upstream provides in a timely manner: EVE

RWE is investing EUR 24 million in a battery storage project in Eemshaven, the Netherlands, with an installed power capacity of 35 MW and a storage capacity of 41 MWh. The project is an important step towards integrating wind energy into the Dutch energy system and further expands RWE's advanced battery storage portfolio.

Six months later, GTM gets an exclusive update from APS and Fluence on an event that’s forcing a new look at grid battery engineering.

Scientists at MIT state the enormous hydropower sources of the Canadian district could be utilized as storage space to level the supply of periodic renewables generation in New England as well as New York state.

The government has been seen as slow to act on climate change, while Labor offered an ambitious carbon reduction policy.

Roof covering surfaces covered with solar systems are not enough to meet power demands, particularly in non-residential structures. "However, because surface area mounting on the exterior is critically identified in terms of aesthetic appeals as well as preparation and setup, facade surfaces typically remain extra," discusses Katharina Klemt-Albert, head of the Institute for Construction Management as well as Digital Building at Leibniz Universität Hannover (LUH).

President Joe Biden signed a proclamation to impose a 200% tariff on aluminum imports from Russia, citing threats to national security. This tariff will affect solar panel frames, racking, and structural mounts used in photovoltaic arrays.

Scientists from the University of Surrey have actually exposed the considerable renovations they are making in perovskite-based solar cells. Perovskite solar cells have revealed significant capacity within the effectiveness restriction of the extensively used solar cells currently on the market by soaking up light in a more comprehensive range of wavelengths.

NJR Clean Energy Ventures (CEV) has begun construction on an 8.9-MW floating solar setup in Millburn, New Jersey, that will be the biggest floating array in the USA.
