Great article about Paired Power by Emily Newton published in EEPower featuring the immense value of PairTree EV charging infrastructure. A snippet from the piece: "Numerous arguments surrounding building up charging infrastructure revolve around the antiquated grid’s ability to sustain a predominantly electrified population. PairTree eliminates this argument by installing an awning-like solar canopy above chargers, which uses renewable power from the sun to fuel the unit. This off-grid infrastructure will best support microgrids." https://lnkd.in/ghPyp5WA

Companies selling off-grid street lighting products are facing scrutiny for unrealistic assertions about the year-round viability of their solar-only products. Kight Off-Grid achieves all year round reliability with its dual energy technology which simultaneously harnesses both solar and wind energy, feeding an advanced, next generation battery technology. Kight’s testing concludes that solar only street lighting, even with its superior battery technology, doesn’t work reliably once you get into the winter period and dual energy input is required. The UK's shortened winter daylight hours creates a challenge for solar only solutions needing to provide P4 class of street lighting throughout the longer hours of darkness at this time of year.

Upgraded power lines are here to support increased loads from electrification and renewable energy by modernizing existing powerlines with advanced wires, avoiding having to build new lines. These new wires have lighter, stronger composite cores, allowing them to carry twice as much power on the same poles, significantly reducing permitting and construction costs. Successful implementations, such as in Texas, have led to faster and cheaper renewable energy projects, potentially quadrupling grid capacity by 2035 and enabling the U.S. to reach 90% renewable power. However, broader adoption is hindered by a lack of awareness and regulatory barriers that favor traditional, less efficient upgrades.

Today we are pleased to announce a new partnership with Norgesnett AS that is set to reward the ‘grid aware’ charging of its customers. As part of our Spark by Volue initiative, our collaboration has seen the launch of eNabo. The solution will allow Norgesnett’s customers to receive lower grid fees if they charge their electrical vehicles (EVs) with surplus solar energy in their neighbourhood. “Many of us have become familiar with smart charging of electric cars, meaning we charge at times when electricity in the spot market is cheapest, typically at night. The problem with this type of first-generation smart charging is that it does not take into account the strain on the local power grid. It's not 'grid aware.' That's the element we're introducing now together with Norgesnett," says Kjetil Storset, Head of Spark by Volue. “Today’s announcement supports our ambitions for the delivery of a resilient and balanced grid. By leveraging distributed energy resources, we are facilitating a more intelligent use of the power grid. Not only will this enhance grid stability, but it will reward consumers, creating value for our partners like Norgesnett in the process,” adds Kjetil. “We all support the green shift, but for us as a grid company, solar panels on roofs and electric cars also pose a challenge. When a lot of solar energy flows onto the grid from private homes on sunny days, while more and more people choose to charge their electric cars at night, it creates increasing strain on the local power grid," says Vidar Kristoffersen, CEO of Norgesnett, which has around 100,000 grid customers. "We are passionately committed to keeping grid fees as low as possible, and for that, it's important to think innovatively, which we contribute to here," says Kristoffersen.

In a step forward in energy independence, Solar United Neighbors (SUN) has unveiled a groundbreaking model policy for Distributed Power Plants (#DPPs), also known as Virtual Power Plants (#VPPs). These innovative systems coordinate small-scale solar and battery setups to provide flexibility when the electric grid needs it most—helping to prevent power outages and reducing reliance on power plants. “Distributed Power Plants are a game-changer for utilities grappling with rising energy costs and the need for more resilient energy…SUN’s recommendations provide a framework that, if implemented, could save consumers billions in energy costs over the next decade.”—Meghan Nutting, Sunnova EVP, Government and Regulatory Affairs Discover how DPPs can reshape our energy future by creating a more reliable, affordable, and cleaner grid.
