Utility Scale PV

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.

The solar park is planned to have a capacity of 3 MW and sell power to the local grid under a 20-year PPA.

The funds will be used to support innovative agrivoltaic projects and may cover up to 70% of a project’s upfront costs.

Iberdrola has built apiaries at its Andévalo and Núñez de Balboa solar power plants in Spain. The company wants to build more beehives at its other PV facilities throughout the country.

The French utility and Macquarie’s unit Cero Generation have each acquired a 45% stake in France-based agrivoltaic specialist Green Lighthouse Development (GLHD).

Highview Power plans to develop up to seven projects with a capacity of 50 MW / 300 MWh each in Asturias, Cantabria, Castilla y León and the Canary Islands thanks to an estimated investment of $1 billion.

According to a new study from the LUT University, hybrid wind-solar plants offer the ideal profile to reduce the costs of green ammonia. Although natural gas will be able to provide lower prices over this and the next decade, beyond 2040 ammonia generated by wind and solar may reach a price of between €300 and €330 per ton.

Anson Zhang, the CEO of Australian solar distributor One Stop Warehouse, entered the retail electricity market in 2020 by launching Discover Energy. The move confused many people, but he said the decision was driven by an interest in data.

The project is the first solar-powered green hydrogen facility in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

In the 2020-21 fiscal year, India installed 3.5 GW of utility-scale solar projects, down about 39% year on year.
