Energy Update
An energy storage system set to be the largest ever built in the Netherlands is to be co-located with wind and solar assets in a microgrid at Wageningen University & Research test center in Lelystad.
The project will store the equivalent of the annual energy consumption of more than 9000 households a year and will be the first large-scale energy storage project based on lithium iron phosphate chemistry in Europe.
Lockheed Martin said it will invest $9 million toward the construction of a Canadian solar and storage project, in conjunction with $10 million from the Government of Alberta.
TC Energy’s Saddlebrook Solar + Storage Project includes a solar generating facility that is expected to provide up to 102.5 MW of power, or enough electricity to power around 30,000 homes. The project will feature utility-scale storage with an expected output capacity of 6.5 MW/40 MWh.
Dominion Energy signed a contract with Siemens Gamersa Renewable Energy to supply 176 wind turbines for the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind Project (CVOW).
The 2.6 GW project is the largest offshore wind farm currently under development in the United States. Once finished in 2026, CVOW would generate enough energy to power 660,000 homes.
Massachusetts awarded bids to two offshore wind projects, which are expected to generate a combined 1600 megawatts (MW) of electricity.
The projects include a 1200 MW proposal from Vineyard Wind and a 400 MW proposal from Mayflower Wind. That brings the total offshore wind capacity purchased by the state to 3200 MW, or enough to power 1.6 million homes, Gov. Charlie Baker’s administration said.
The U.S. Department of Energy announced that 35 teams advanced as finalists in its Solar District Cup Collegiate Design Competition for 2021-2022.
The U.S. Department of Energy is finalizing a $39 million award to Heliogen, Inc. for the California-based company to roll out its artificial intelligence-powered solar technology.
It comes on the heels of the DOE’s announcement of the award in November.
(Mon, 20 Dec 2021) EIA recently released a retrospective list of our top 12 notable accomplishments for 2021, highlighting our products and programs from this year.
Azure Power signed its largest Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) for a capacity of 2,333 MW of grid-connected solar power projects. The deal follows a 600-MW PPA signed in November under the same tender, which has a total capacity of 4 GW.
(Fri, 17 Dec 2021) Annual state-level estimates of electricity end-use consumption, prices, and expenditures based on electricity sales and revenue.
The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) announced new at-large and elected board members.
Solar and Storage companies Enphase Energy, Freedom Forever, Nautilus Solar and Array Technologies are among those becoming SEIA at-large board members. Representatives from 15 companies were elected to the board.
