China is looking to boost its energy storage market and projects as it adds growing renewable power capacities. At the end of last year, the Chinese authorities issued a unified nationwide policy to boost the energy storage industry that has been lagging behind other countries despite the fact that China is leading global investments in
By 43 votes to 32, the Assembly of the State of California has approved a measure requiring all energy used in the sunshine state to be from renewable sources by 2045. At present, 44% of energy already is, with 9% coming from nuclear energy, 34% natural gas and 13% coal and other hydrocarbons.What’s particularly interesting
A household just outside Berlin has become the recipient of the 100,000th grid-connected residential battery energy storage system in Germany.Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, Thomas Bareiß attended an official event to mark the system’s commissioning in Eichwalde. Bareiß hailed the event as an “important milestone” that Germany has
Power outages pose great risks for corporate bottom lines and many have already suffered the economic brunt of unforeseen weather and grid events in 2018. Traditionally, commercial and industrial (C&I) businesses have deployed batteries to improve the energy efficiency of their operations while supporting sustainability initiatives.
The British public is in favour of a significantly decarbonised, decentralised energy system and wants the government to support the transition to such a system, a new survey has found.Environmental law firm Client Earth tasked YouGov to gauge the views of more than 2,000 people as part of its Climate Snapshot poll and uncovered huge
