Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have created a new iron flow battery design offering the potential for a safe, scalable renewable energy storage system.
[pdf] A California sunset glows over Monrovia while 500 megawatt-hours of stored solar energy quietly feeds the local grid. That’s the Monrovia Shared Energy Storage Project in action – and it’s rewriting the rules of how communities handle electricity.
[pdf] Their hybrid system combining aerosol suppression and water mist curtains reduced fire response time to 8 seconds flat, saving an estimated $2.3 million in potential damages [1]. As we cruise toward 2030, the industry's flirting with quantum-enabled sensors and blockchain-based safety logs.
[pdf] This research study evaluates the use of a supercapacitor module as a fast-response energy storage unit to improve energy self-consumption and self-sufficiency for renewable energy systems applications..
[pdf] South Africa’s electricity minister has said the largest solar-plus-storage project, with a combined solar generation capacity of 540MW, and 225MW/1,140MWh of battery energy storage system (BESS) technology, in the Southern Hemisphere is evidence of efforts to mitigate the country’s difficult energy security situation.
[pdf] • 1980 - The at University of Delaware develops the first exceeding 10% efficiency using Cu2S/CdS technology.• 1981 - is founded by in Freiburg, Germany. In 1954, Calvin Fuller and his team at Bell Laboratories developed the first practical photovoltaic cell while working on a project to explore semiconductors for telephone systems.
