The 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry awarded to 3 scientists who developed lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. But why batteries? Olof Ramstrom, a member of the Nobel Committee for Chemistry, said that Li-ion batteries have had a […]
Recent blackouts in Northern California made people think about alternative solutions which let them be more independent of public electric utilities, even for a short time interval during a day. Here is the right place […]
This year, the Nobel Prize in chemistry has got to the developers of Lithium-ion or Li-ion battery. The laureates of the prize are John B. Goodenough, M. Stanley Whittingham, and Akira Yoshino from left to […]
It is quite stunning to reuse the old batteries of electric vehicles (EVs) to construct a stationary storage system (SSS). In Germany, as a part of a joint project company, Groupe Renault, The Mobility House, […]
In spite of all their advantages, solar and wind energies have a major disadvantage, that is, being variable. In other words, the power output of solar/wind farms severely dependent on the weather conditions that increase […]
One of the most energy-demanding sectors is transport & logistics. Electric Vehicles (EVs) as an alternative to conventional vehicles could help us meeting our goals & obligations. As the Solar EV revolution progresses to the […]
ABB, the multinational tech firm, unveiled its CO2-neutral and energy self-sufficient factory in Luedenscheid, Germany. The photovoltaic system with 275 kWh battery storage backup fully power up the factory & also any additional energy will […]
One of the problems of conventional solar plus storage projects on any scale is the space issue. Yotta Solar, an energy storage developer in Texas, has put forward a creative solution that is so easy […]
The world’s largest technology investor, SoftBank’s Vision Fund, has made its first investment in an energy storage company, betting US$110 million on Swiss start-up Energy Vault. Energy Vault’s storage solution was created based on the […]
At the forefront of technological innovation, there is a limit to the amount of electricity that can be delivered to the grid from intermittent renewable energy sources. Renewable energies such as solar and off/onshore wind […]
