HDF Energy (Hydrogène de France) has signed a tripartite agreement with Indonesia’s PLN and PT SMI to fund €2.3 billion ($2.6 billion) of hydrogen projects, while Thyssenkrupp Nucera says it will conduct a front-end engineering design [FEED] study for a 600 MW hydrogen electrolysis plant in Europe.
Solar led Spain’s power generation in May with 4,867 GWh, or 23.5% of the total, followed by hydro at 17.3% and wind at 16.7%, according to data from grid operator Red Eléctrica de España (REE).
Researchers in Spain have developed a new method to estimated potential-induced degradation (PID) in solar modules used in PV-driven water pumping systems. The proposed approach can detect PID from the open-circuit voltage measurement of the system’s PV module strings.
Scientists in Spain studied electricity demand data for the Kobe refugee camp in Ethiopia to optimize several minigrid scenarios, also integrating the use of electric pressure cookers. Their analysis showed that introduction of the cooker required an increase in PV capacity of up 68%.
The European Commission has selected projects for €992 million ($1.1 billion) of EU public funding, while the Japanese government has agreed to provide $4.80 in subsidies for hydrogen fuel cell trucks.
The Sunbox Industry product, aimed at the commercial and industrial (C&I) segment, offers a modular, scalable, and intelligent solution, according to the manufacturer. It can be scaled from 100 kW/172 kWh to 3 MW/15 MWh.
pv magazine spoke with Garikoitz Sarriegi, senior project manager at Kiwa PI Berlin Ibérica, about the Reuters report published on Wednesday that devices susceptible to spying and sabotage had been found in inverters and batteries from China.
New research from Spain has sought to understand if dimethyl ether and ternary mixtures of carbon dioxide, dimethyl ether and butane could represent an alternative to propane in heat pump systems. Their analysis has shown dimethyl ether could be the best alternative to R290, as it offers the highest coefficient of performance values for both cooling and heating, and avoids issues related to temperature glide.
Spain’s ecological transition minister has confirmed that the problem was not a reserve or coverage issue, nor was it due to the size of the grids. The government is also analyzing whether the fluctuations felt in Europe half an hour before the blackout were related to the incident.
