LONGi Solar’s Post

We’re working with members to bring forward target dates for 100% renewable electricity. TSMC, one of the world’s largest #semiconductor manufacturers, has increased its ambition by bringing forward its #RE100 target date to 2040 📆 In this new blog, we speak to TSMC about #increasingambition, working with suppliers and subsidiaries on #renewables, and what #TSMC would like to see from policymakers to help further unlock the company's renewables aspirations 🎤: https://lnkd.in/evP46e3z 20 #RE100 members have now brought forward their targets by a combined total of 248 years. That's 28.3 TW/h per year switching to 100% #renewableelectricity sooner than initially planned - greater than the annual electricity demand of #Nigeria.

EU BACKS PORTUGAL'S NEW WAVE ENERGY PROJECT The Ondas de Peniche (ONDEP) project has been awarded €19 million from the EU's Horizon Europe funding program to deploy a 2 MW wave energy array in Peniche, Portugal. The project, set to begin in October 2024 and run for five and a half years, will install four WaveRoller wave energy converters connected to the grid. Led by AW-Energy Oy - "Plug into wave energy" as the main technology provider, ONDEP aims to address technical challenges for large-scale wave farms and establish a European supply chain to support GW-scale wave energy deployment. The project involves 14 partners from across Europe, coordinated by Queen's University Belfast. ONDEP's goals include demonstrating a Levelized Cost of Energy below 100€/MWh by 2035 and unlocking potential for 11 wave energy farms across eight countries by 2030. ⚡ Follow MPS (Modern Power Systems) for all the latest news daily from the global power generation industry ⚡ #MPS #power #waveenergy #renewables #sustainability #energytransition

NEPRA - National Electric Power Regulatory Authority has approved K-Electric's Request for Proposals (RFPs), allowing them to pursue open competitive bidding for their 200 MW Site Neutral Hybrid Power Project at Dhabeji Grid. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dAHEt7mA This progressive move underscores K Electric ’s imperative to enhance affordability and sustainability within its power system, resonating with the findings of RF-PRIED’s recent study “Examining K-Electric's Cost of Inaction in Deploying Renewables”. To diversify its electricity generation mix by integrating renewable energy sources, KE needs to act fast and seize the occasion. Read the KE Whitepaper here: https://lnkd.in/dvrSmvRA

Ministry of POWER has disbanded the Alternative Energy Development Board & merged it with infamous PPIB, that is 100% responsible for current economic & energy woes. Not even enemies of Pakistan could have done this kind of damage to our country economy. Pakistan has been deprived since 2016 of cheap & fuel free wind and solar electricity at $¢4.0-5.0/kWh (Rs.10-12/kWh). People are forced to buy electricity at $¢12/kWh (Rs 35+25% taxes). Our industrial & commercial businessess are collapsing, rural areas faces 10-20 hours of load shedding. Those in buerecrracy & politicians responsible for this "act" should be tried under"article 5" of constitution.

The India Energy Storage Week (IESW) is well underway! The International Conference and Exhibition started today (1st July) concluding Friday 5th July in New Delhi and is organised by the India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA). Edina CEO, Adam Bloom, will participate in the 'Energy Storage Tender and Projects in India' panel session on Wednesday 3rd July discussing Battery Energy Storage project challenges and considerations. Edina is an EPC contractor for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and has over 70MWh of contracted BESS projects in the UK and almost 40 years of grid interfacing expertise. We will use the opportunity to meet with commercial and industrial end-users looking to produce and consume their power and cooling on-site using MWM Gas Engines. BESS can complement renewable and low-carbon technologies as part of a wider energy transition solution to improve cost savings, carbon positioning, enhanced energy resilience and asset flexibility. #India #IESW24 #BatteryEnergyStorage #Microgrids #BESS #Trigeneration #EnergyTransition #GastoPower #PowerTheFuture

This #FootprintFriday, we share exciting news of a new Solar energy efficiency world record! Researchers at Longi, the world's leading solar panel manufacturer, have set a new world record for solar energy efficiency! Achieving an incredible 34.6% power conversion efficiency with their tandem perovskite-silicon solar cell, Longi has surpassed the previous record by 0.7% and outperformed standard silicon solar cells by over 7%. Perovskite, often dubbed the 'miracle material,' shows immense potential to revolutionize renewable energy, and this breakthrough brings us closer to more efficient and sustainable energy solutions. With current silicon solar panels hitting their physical limits, next-generation tandem cells like these are crucial for better harnessing the Sun’s energy. This record-breaking achievement was announced at the 17th International Solar Photovoltaic and Smart Energy Conference in Shanghai, alongside a transformative partnership with Saudi energy firm ACWA Power. Join us in celebrating this remarkable milestone in our journey towards a greener, more sustainable future! #RenewableEnergy #SolarPower #Innovation #Sustainability #GreenEnergy #Longi #Perovskite #CleanEnergyFuture
