Energy regulators must address the rise of bundled distributed generation technologies, EV charging infrastructure and cyber security or risk impeding the clean energy transition, a new report from the Council of European Energy Regulators has said.The report, published last week, identifies five particular trends that stand to shape the emerging future energy market. The CEER
According to the latest U.S. Energy Storage Monitor report, home energy storage system deployments reached record highs in the first quarter of 2018.The report, issued by GTM Research and the Energy Storage Association (ESA) earlier this week, concluded that 35.8 megawatt-hours (MWh) of grid-connected residential energy storage systems were deployed in the first three months
The 36 megawatt-hours of residential energy storage installed in the United States during Q1 is the latest in a year of accelerating growth rates, driven by policies in California and Hawaii.
With thousands of others, I enjoyed the inaugural Fully Charged Live event at Silverstone last weekend.
As promised, we showed our faces at Fully Charged Live at Silverstone on Saturday. This was the first exhibition and conference launched by Robert Llewellyn off the back of his Fully Charged YouTube show, but I’m sure not the last.
Every new home in California is going solar by 2020. If solar-energy companies have their way, those homes also will come with batteries.Companies like Tesla and SunRun are starting to bid on utility contracts that would allow them to string together dozens or hundreds of systems that act as an enormous reserve to balance the
Energy storage could make rooftop solar more viable across the country and be an added revenue source for solar installers.
We’re going to be at the Fully Charged Live show this Saturday at Silverstone – and we’d love to see you there! I first met Robert Llewellyn (star of Red Dwarf and Scrapheap Challenge) 5 years ago when I gave him his first ride in a Renault ZOE, as I had one of the first in
Battery power has the potential to transform the electricity industry – but that doesn’t mean energy storage is completely straightforward…As dawn broke on the first day of the 21st century, the fundamental issue the electricity industry had faced since its beginnings remained intact: despite some pioneering attempts to store hydro-electric generation there was no way
This is about Days 6 and 7 of owning a PowerBanx home battery, and a summary of the result of a week running our house with one. On Day 1 I explained how it charges up from our solar panels during the day and then empties during the evening to
