The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) says 20.2 GW of electricity generation capacity was added in the United States during the first half of 2024. Solar energy led the way, with significant deployments in energy storage as well.

According to the US Department of Energy’s EIA, the United States connected 20.2 GW (AC) of utility-scale power plants to the grid during the first half of 2024. This capacity includes 12 GW of solar, which represents 59% of the total additions.

The Commission has launched discussions with the two Cypriot communities in Cyprus about the results of an EU-funded pre-feasibility study concerning the possible establishment of the first-ever bi-communal solar power plant in Cyprus.

Discussions were officially launched with a meeting with the representatives of both Cypriot communities, chaired by Mario Nava, Director-General for Structural Reform Support at the European Commission.

The pre-feasibility study, funded under the EU aid programme for the Turkish Cypriot community and carried out in collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme, envisages a solar power plant of 36MW capacity located in the buffer zone, using photovoltaics and batteries with a storage capacity of 3 hours.

The European Commission is targeting 90% renewable electricity by 2040 in the EU and sees energy storage as one of several key areas of investment to get there, according to a leaked draft.

The European Commission has targeted a 90% share of EU electricity from renewables by 2040 – mostly solar and wind – and complemented by nuclear energy, according to a leaked draft first obtained by French media Contexte.

Under these conditions, the European Union will require “substantial” investments in expanding its power grid, while upgrading to smarter and more flexible grids.

Mono Steel is also in the second phase of Snowy 2.0 Hydroelectric Power Plant, one of the biggest projects in Australia. Mono Steel’s task in this project is to produce the steel structures of the 2nd phase designed for renewable energy…

Continuing its mega project in America, Mono Steel is going to the other side of the world, to Australia this time. Mono Steel, which was appreciated for its performance and quality workmanship in the 1st phase of the Snowy 2.0 Hydroelectric Power Plant Project, which was partially completed in 2020,
It is justifiably proud of taking part in the 2nd stage as well.

Australia finally has a net zero target. Even without being legislated, it matters as a signal. It will effectively be bipartisan, a rare and valuable thing in Australia’s climate policy. Of course the long-term goal could be used to deflect from the fact that not much is being done to put Australia on a low-carbon pathway right now, but it must be taken at face value if we are to stand a chance.

How can Australia become net zero?

For the first time since the creation of the Innovation Fund, the European Union is investing 118 million euros into 32 small innovative projects located in 14 EU Member States, Iceland and Norway.

The grants will support projects aiming to bring low-carbon technologies to the market in energy-intensive industries, hydrogen, energy storage and renewable energy. In addition to these grants, 15 projects will benefit from project development assistance worth up to 4.4 million euros, with the aim of advancing their maturity.

Energy storage is set to take an increasingly central role in the global economy, growing almost tenfold over the next decade and a half, new research suggests.

The total energy storage market is expected to grow to $546 billion in annual revenue by 2035, up from just $59 billion in 2019, according to a report released by Lux Research.

Meanwhile, the stationary storage market will surpass the electronic devices market as early as 2023, when it is projected to become a $30 billion industry of 52 GWh in installations.

As countries look to decarbonize transport, increasing the use of electric cars is proving key to that effort. And batteries are the key challenge to making those electric cars work. Now, a new study says that those batteries may also be the key to reducing the power sector’s emissions by increasing efficiency.

The study by Element Energy, commissioned by energy companies Enel and Iberdrola, carmaker Renault and the NGO Transport & Environment, said that a smart deployment of electric cars which charge at low-demand times and batteries that feed back into the grid at high-demand times would reduce the need to build additional grid storage and power plants.

2019 promises to be an exciting year for clean tech. An increasing number of countries, companies and regions are embracing sustainable energy generation and the landscape is rapidly evolving.</h1
Here are 6 renewable energy trends to watch in the coming year.
1. Energy Storage

Energy storage plays an important role in balancing power supply and demand, and is key to tackling the intermittency issues of renewable energy. Pairing a storage system with a renewable energy source ensures a smooth and steady power supply, even when weather conditions are not optimal for energy generation.
