As wind and solar equipment ages, an established grid connection can make a project attractive for repowering, though permits still need full review.
Noria Energy is bringing single-axis tracking to floating solar with Airon. The system aims to deliver more output from the same project footprint on the water.
Researchers are testing a process that turns arsenic mine waste into high-purity metal. It could limit cleanup risks while creating a fresh source for industry.
Desalination has always traded a water problem for an energy one, but energy recovery devices and solar integration are shrinking that trade fast.
WBCSD finds more than 2.5 terawatts of renewable and storage projects stuck in grid queues worldwide, while curtailment climbs in most markets tracked.
Aptera’s solar EV generated more than 4 kWh of usable energy in independent daily testing. Results suggest 40-plus miles of solar range in favorable conditions.
Casablanca is advancing a 126 MW waste-to-energy plant near Mediouna. The facility is designed to process 1.5 million tonnes of non-recyclable waste each year.
Enphase is taking its microinverter model into commercial storage. The IQ Battery C80 scales to 2 MWh for solar, demand management and grid programs nationwide.
Generator, battery and microgrid costs tell only part of the resilience story. Outage duration, critical load and fuel access can change the economics.
New research is shifting space-based solar power from theoretical generation toward harder questions about power beaming, regulation and grid integration.
Georgia Transmission awards a new 230-kV switching station in southwest Georgia as rising loads and new generation drive grid investment statewide.
Nigeria's distributed energy programs target 465 MW of new capacity as $1.3 billion in investment commitments build a power market beyond the grid.
Thousands of gamers are pooling subscription revenue to support a 110 MW Texas solar project. The deal tests a new route into clean energy procurement at scale.
Viridi's RPS 150 finished live-grid testing at ORNL. The project examined how well energy storage works with grid controls under changing real-world conditions.
Port of Brisbane added battery storage and solar to its cruise terminal, testing whether ports can shift from generating clean power to managing grid demand.
Finance leaders face new capital risk: the July 4 tax credit deadline passed while a court fight over the solar and wind safe harbor rules remains unresolved.
Tantangan Solar is now generating power in Mindanao. The 99 MW project pairs solar with battery storage to boost grid flexibility and renewable power supply.
Siemens' new microgrid pairs solar power with battery storage at its Wendell, North Carolina plant. It is built to keep critical production moving in an outage.
New Hampshire has signed a law directing its Department of Energy to assess transformer vulnerability to geomagnetic and electromagnetic disturbances.
New IRP filings from 23 U.S. utilities show a shift to scenario-based forecasting as data centers drive demand, raising planning risk for facilities leaders.
