The Hydrogen Stream: Chile selects electrolyzer companies for local assembly
Chile’s economic development agency Corfo has selected three companies – two Chinese and one Spanish – to build electrolyzer production facilities in the country. The projects, set to begin operations by mid-2026, will assemble alkaline and proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers ranging from 50 kW to 5 MW.
Mastering complex PV projects for commercial and industrial buildings
K2 Systems will share their extensive experience in planning commercial and industrial (C&I) projects using examples of successful past projects, including rooftop solar at a Swiss football stadium and other special industrial references as well as a mid-scale aluminium made ground mounted solution in Germany.
‘Without energy storage, renewables are not serious power plants’
Chinese inverter and energy storage maker Sungrow invited 300 guests from 20 European countries to its ESS [energy storage system] Experience Day event in Munich, Germany. Discussions focused on energy storage, projects, market figures, and the energy transition. The conclusion: More storage and grid expansion are needed.
Exploring hydrogen for energy development in remote communities: Comparing Canadian and Malaysian prospects
Researchers at the University of Waterloo in Canada investigated hydrogen as a potential decarbonization strategy for remote communities in Canada and Malaysia.
