SK Specialty has agreed to purchase electricity from 50 MW of renewable energy assets located in South Koreas Chungcheong province from 2024 to 2044 at an undisclosed price. Germany deployed 3.8 GW of PV power in the first half of 2022 . In June alone, new photovoltaic systems totaling 612 MW were connected to the German grid. The countrys cumulative operational PV capacity reached 59.9 GW at the end of June. Global energy storage deployment may reach 500 GW by 2031 . A study by consulting firm Wood Mackenzie predicts that the United States and China will account for 75% of world demand in a highly consolidated market. Third is Germany and fourth is Australia. Construction begins on the worlds largest underground hydrogen storage project . Mitsubishi Power Americas and Magnum Development are to break ground on a 300 GWh underground storage facility in the US state of Utah. The project will consist of two caverns with a capacity of 150 GWh to store the hydrogen generated by an adjacent 840 MW gas turbine combined cycle plant. Indias state-owned Central Electronics Limited Ltd is seeking 3 million multicrystalline solar cells . Manufacturers have until August 16 to submit bids for the supply of 3 million multicrystalline silicon solar cells with five busbars. The cells are needed with a maximum power of 4.68 W and 4.63 W. Italy publishes new national guidelines for agrovoltaic plants . Guidelines for the design, construction and operation of agrivoltaic plants are published by the Italian Ministry of Ecological Transition, in coordination with the Council for Research and Analysis of Agricultural Economics (CREA), Gestore dei Servizi Energetici SpA (GSE ), the National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA), and Research on the Energy System (RSE). Toshiba launches photovoltaic-powered hydrogen refueling station in Japan . Located in Niigata, the capital of Niigata Prefecture in the Chubu region, the system is capable of refueling about eight hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in three minutes. It is also capable of supplying electrical energy using the hydrogen produced with renewable energy within the station. In Spain, a fire breaks out in the largest solar plant in the Basque Country . Last Sunday, firefighters were able to extinguish a fire that broke out in the transformation center of the Ekian photovoltaic park, 24 MWp, located in the Arasur Industrial Park, Álava, in the Basque Country. The Spanish group Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF) announces the start of dynamic tests on the track of the hydrogen-powered demonstrator train of the FCH2Rail project , developed by the consortium of companies formed by CAF, DLR, Toyota, Renfe, ADIF, CNH2, IP and Stemmann-Technik. |
