The massive Oneida Energy Storage project in Ontario will store surplus energy during off-peak periods and provide grid-balancing services to reduce renewables curtailment.

The replacement program could cost around $350 million. New batteries will incorporate manufacturing process improvements.

Canada-based Enertopia filed provisional patents for technology that it said could boost PV system output by 10% or more and reduce panel heat stress.

Trina Solar broke ground on its Thai Nguyen plant in December, and completed construction in five months.

Berkeley Lab’s Renewables and Wholesale Electricity Prices tool allows users to compare pricing trends across locations, regions, and timeframes, down to the nodal level.

Separating generation from storage usually delivers higher value, but it may also deliver higher costs, the report said.

Maxeon has signed an agreement to supply nearly 1.8 million PV modules over a four-quarter period from the second quarter of 2022. Project completion is planned by the end of 2023.

Using Department of Energy laboratories, scientists learned at the atomic level that a liquid-like motion in perovskites may explain how they efficiently produce electric currents.

According to the International Energy Agency, most of the global reductions in CO2 emissions between now and 2030 would come from technologies available today. In a recent report, the agency sets what it described as a “cost-effective and economically productive” pathway resulting in an energy economy “dominated by renewables like solar and wind.”

HyDeal LA includes the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and aims to overcome green hydrogen’s high cost by launching a commercial hydrogen cluster at scale.
