At Agritechnica, suppliers of agrivoltaic systems presented solutions on how farmers can utilise their land multiple times. They also showed future scenarios of how modern agriculture can develop in the course of the solar energy transition.
The project pipeline is expected to further increase to 20 gigawatts by 2025. Most of these are solar plants. However, Q Energy also wants to expand its share of storage and enter the hydrogen market.
For its "Power-to-Hydrogen-to-Power" project, Innio has ordered two electrolyzers from H-Tec Systems that provide a total output of 2 megawatts and which are used to convert green electricity into green hydrogen.
The Siemens Group has now handed over the project on Terceira in the Azores to the Portuguese energy provider EDA. Innovative software and a power buffer with 15 megawatts of output increase the share of green power while improving the flexibility and resilience of the power grid.
The Swiss MET Group has launched a power-to-heat project at its Dunamenti gas-fired power plant in Százhalombatta, Hungary, with an electrode boiler that can use surplus renewable electricity to generate hot water for heating purposes.
The innovative project Green H2-Hub Haren in the Emsland region in northern Germany uses H-Tec Systems electrolysers for sector integration.
The ASCA solar films can be used in a wide range of applications – from individual small projects to facades in commercial housing construction. Here is a solar tree that charges e-bikes:
BYD Headquarters officially launched the "Zero Carbon Industrial Campus” in Pingshan, which will become the first zero-carbon HQs of Chinese automobile brands.
German companies Q Cells and Tesvolt have agreed to join forces when it comes to the provision of green energy to corporate customers:
The Earth's surface temperature could be 1.5 degrees higher than in the pre-industrial era by 2030. It is the time to act, IPCC scientists agree with environmental and energy groups.
Corfu is one of the greenest islands in Greece due to its fertile vegetation. But there is also something going on in terms of sustainability. In April 2021, Sunfarming GmbH commissioned two photovoltaic systems on the Greek island.
Fronius is launching the Wattpilot EV charger, which is aimed at all EV drivers, regardless of whether they have their own photovoltaic system or not.
Last year, 38 per cent of the European electricity grids were filled with green electricity. That was one per cent more than fossil power plants contributed.
To finance the international solar pipeline for the Clean Capital Energy Group (CCE), the company successfully placed its first corporate bond.
