EDF Renewables is to purchase the installer, which has around 30MWp of rooftop solar in operation, and become its tactical companion. SkyX means to establish an additional 200MWp of rooftop solar and also distributed power jobs for C&I consumers in Vietnam over the next three years, improving the recent success of Vietnam's rooftop PV market. Last year Vietnam experienced a boom in rooftop solar installs that coincided with a connection deadline for subsidies in the country. Greater than 9GW of rooftop solar was set up in Vietnam in 2020, around 6GW of which was mounted in December alone. The rush prompted worries over the stability of the grid during height solar generation hrs, with curtailment orders becoming a lot more frequent. Vietnam's authorities have actually given that delayed on enacting a replacement feed-in tariff system consequently. PV Tech Premium wrote thoroughly on the subject at the time. Nonetheless, investment appetite for solar and various other renewables in the region remains high, and also earlier this year research study firm WoodMackenzie forecasted that solar as well as wind financial investments in the Asia Pacific area are to double this years. Don Lam, co-founder at VinaCapital, said the investment manager recognised the important role clean energy would certainly play in Vietnam numerous years ago, prompting the launch of SkyX Solar in 2019. Samresh Kumar, chief executive officer as well as founder at SkyX Solar, added that it was now the company's objective to companion with more C&I business in Vietnam to enhance its build-out plans. "EDF Renewables, a subsidiary of EDF, is just one of the world's leading renewable energy firms, so I could not be more pleased that they have actually selected to partner with and invest in SkyX. Their competence as well as sources will enable us to further broaden as well as bring our world class remedies to much more customers in Vietnam," Kumar stated. "The potential for renewables in Vietnam is enormous, and also we are eager to increase our footprint in the nation drawing on our international knowledge in roof solar options," Yalim Ozilhan, Southeast Asia supervisor at EDF Renewables, claimed.

EDF Renewables and also Network Rail have authorized a power purchase agreement (PPA) covering output from the 50MW Bloy's Grove solar farm in Norfolk, which got planning authorization in June this year. The agreement will certainly cover around 15% of Network Rail's yearly consumption of non-traction power being made use of in workplaces, depots and railway stations throughout the country. This improves the existing traction supply partnership in between Network Rail and also the bigger EDF Group in the UK. The PPA remains in line with Network Rail's commitment to sourcing 100% of non-traction energy from renewable sources by 2030 as part of its ecological sustainability approach. Jo Lewington, Network Rail's primary environment and sustainability officer, said: "Rail is currently in a solid position in terms of its green qualifications, but it's vital that we do whatever we can as a company to boost air quality, minimise our use fossil fuels, as well as transition to an industry powered by green, renewable, low-carbon energy. " Our vision is to offer the country with the cleanest, greenest form of public transport as well as this agreement marks an additional crucial action towards attaining our objectives." Rail Minister Wendy Morton said: "Our railway has long been the foundation of traveling throughout the UK and, as one of the greenest forms of transport, it is set to play a central role in reducing emissions as well as aiding us accomplish our world-leading decarbonisation goals. " This very first of its kind agreement is a huge moment not just for Network Rail yet the rail market overall, instating a journey which will see Britain's preferred transport come to be even greener, cleaner as well as much more sustainable." Natural Power supplied technical assistance to Network Rail throughout the vendor identification as well as negotiation process for the business power purchase agreement for 49.9 MW of solar power from EDF Renewables UK.

EDF Renewables, collaborating with environmental working as a consultant Nature Positive, is looking for academic partners to provide a programme of ecological research to understand the environmental benefits of solar farms. Concentrating On Longfield Solar Farm, a new solar farm suggested by EDF Renewables and also Padero Solar on roughly 380 hectares of intensive arable farmland near Chelmsford in Essex, the research study would be the very first to look at the positive effects large-scale solar farms can carry biodiversity, soil health and wellness as well as carbon, wildlife habitats and also farmland management in the UK. The study programme will certainly connect into the existing strategies as well as dedications consisted of as part of the recommended Longfield Solar Farm to supply significant biodiversity improvements through habitat reconstruction and also management. Along with affecting these strategies as well as monitoring their outcome, roughly 50 hectares within the solar farm will be readily available as an experimental area, whilst maximising solar energy generation. Especially, it is hoped research studies at Longfield Solar Farm will certainly further understanding on the prospective impacts of solar arrays on wild animals and also biodiversity degrees in habitats under as well as adjacent to ranges, along with soil wellness as well as soil carbon storage. Expressions of passion are being sought till 29 July 2022 from researchers to supply 3 work packages taking a look at the effect of solar farms on biodiversity, habitats on solar farmland and also the influence of solar farmland administration on soil qualities. Mark Lang, from Nature Positive, stated: "Whilst solar farms have actually become increasingly important in satisfying the nationwide need for renewable energy, the potential benefits they can have in improving biodiversity as well as giving other community solutions have to date been badly comprehended. " It is wished the research study will add to the cumulative understanding of exactly how solar farms can be effectively taken care of to enhance biodiversity, influencing present finest technique in the quickly growing solar sector."

EDF Renewables and also Total Eren, two globe leaders in renewable energy, have actually revealed that EDEN Renewables India, their similarly possessed joint endeavor dedicated to the Indian solar PV market, has been granted 3 solar projects for a total of 1,350 MWp (1.35 GW) in Rajasthan, India. EDEN Renewables has actually developed itself among the leaders in the Indian market, with a profile of capabilities under advancement, under construction and operational amounting to greater than 2,200 MWp spread over the states of Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. Between April as well as July 2020, EDEN Renewables India has actually won: ▪ 2 450 MWp solar PV projects during the last tenders arranged by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI VIII and SECI IX);. ▪ one 450 MWp solar PV project throughout the last tender organised by the National Hydro Power Corporation (NHPC), for which a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) has been authorized with NHPC at the end of August 2020. With the scheduled manufacturing of greater than 2,300 GWh each year, these solar PV plants will generate the power called for to meet the annual electrical energy needs of virtually 2 million individuals in India.
