Norway defining new rules for energy communities

The Norwegian government says it is creating a new regulatory framework for energy communities. The new provisions will allow PV systems up to 5 MW in size to sell power and share surplus energy within specific industrial areas.

What happens when fire hits PV systems deployed on sloped roofs

An international research team has observed how fire propagates in PV systems installed on flat roofs and has found that a certain amount of energy is needed for a fire to start and propagate in the cavity below the solar panels.

Digital twin for autonomous aerial monitoring of PV power plants

An international research team has created a digital twin that purportedly enables analysis of different scenarios on PV plants’ aerial monitoring. The new tool is claimed to reduce the risk associated with real-world experimentation and help identify the most effective strategies to improve PV system monitoring.

The Hydrogen Stream: HiiROC, Siemens tie up on thermal plasma electrolysis

HiiROC and Siemens have signed a memorandum of understanding to make advanced control technologies and ensure the safe automation of hydrogen production.

New research estimates average long-term green hydrogen price at $32/MWh

New research from Norway has found that deploying around 140 GW of green hydrogen generation capacity by 2050 could make green hydrogen economically viable in Europe. Reaching this scale may help balance system costs effectively while increasing renewable integration, making green hydrogen a self-sustaining technology without subsidies, according to the scientists.

The Hydrogen Stream: TE H2 to secure land for 1 GW Chbika project in Morocco

Morocco and TE H2 have agreed to reserve land for the Chbika hydrogen project in Morocco. They aim to build 1 GW of solar and wind capacity to annually produce 200,000 tons of green ammonia for the European market.

The Hydrogen Stream: Statkraft advances green H2 plans in Germany

Statkraft says it is progressing with its 200 MW electrolysis plant in Germany, while Neste says it will not invest in its 120 MW electrolyzer project in Finland.

Statkraft aiming for up to €107 million in EU funding for hydrogen production in Germany

The Norwegian energy company wants to build 200 MW of electrolysis capacity in the German state of Lower Saxony. The waste heat generated is to be used for district heating. The EU has now asked Statkraft to enter into negotiations on funding.

The Hydrogen Stream: More H2 projects put on hold

Repsol has told pv magazine that it has frozen 90% of Spain’s hydrogen projects nearing final investment decisions, while Statkraft has confirmed that it has revised its plans for its hydrogen project in Norway.
