Why virtual Power Plants are the Future of Solar Energy
Renewable energy sources like solar are volatile, meaning there is not enough energy production to meet demand when the sun doesn't shine.
However, when the sun does shine, solar panels can feed so...
PV Power Plants on Flat Roofs
Designing and planning rooftop PV plants is one of the most challenging steps towards the realization of your dreams of having green energy produced by sunlight. Hardly any rooftop project is more...
Islands need resilient power systems more than ever. Clean energy can deliver
Small and remote islands are subject to an array of energy challenges. As they are often isolated from mainland power grids, many face difficulties balancing supply and demand. They tend to be heavily dependent...
New UK Government plans big push on wind
The UK’s new Labour Government has great ambitions for accelerating the deployment of wind energy, both onshore and offshore. To deliver on their new goals they will need a massive overhaul of...
Immediate Actions Needed to Unblock Grid Capacity for More Wind Energy
The EU wants to increase its wind energy capacity from 220 GW today to 425 GW by 2030 and 1,300 GW by 2050. Wind is key to energy security, affordable electricity and...
Can Floating Solar Power Plants Cover the Entire Energy Consumption of a Country?
Certain countries have huge potential when it comes to floating solar power plants, and new research shows that some of them could be entirely dependent on this energy source.
Researchers from Bangor and...
