ENERGY NEWS // This ESI Africa article discusses the growth of battery storage in 2023. Battery storage deployment doubled in 2023, outpacing other energy technologies. The growth is due to strong support for electric vehicles (EVs) and incentives for battery storage. Batteries are seen as a key technology for reducing reliance on fossil fuels by enabling the use of renewable energy sources. However, the article acknowledges that there are risks associated with battery storage, such as the need to increase the supply of critical minerals used in battery production Read more: https://bit.ly/3y8VKbm #Rubicon #Energy #Solar #Sustainability #SustainableTechnology #SolarEnergy

Did you know that the UK wasted 1.35 TWh of renewable energy between October 2022 and January 2023 due to a lack of energy storage? During this time, wind turbines were switched off to avoid overloading the grid. This occurred despite the fact that they could have generated enough electricity to power 1.2 million homes. Unfortunately, the UK is not an isolated case. Long-duration energy storage technologies, such as Carnot Batteries, are critical for supporting the widespread deployment of renewable energy sources.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) U.S. renewable energy consumption by source and sector chart illustrates renewable energy that is consumed (used) in the United States. The data are from EIA’s Monthly Energy Review (MER). The chart does not show energy production, nor the losses associated with energy production. a Each energy source is measured in different physical units and converted to common British thermal units (Btu). Noncombustible renewable energy sources are converted to Btu using the “Captured Energy Approach”. b Industrial, commercial, and electric power sectors include primary energy consumption by combined-heat-and-power (CHP) and electricity-only plants in the sector.

The solar based hydrogen generation industry refers to the industry involved in the production of hydrogen gas using solar energy as the primary power source. This process typically involves the use of renewable energy technologies, such as photovoltaic (PV) cells, concentrated solar power (CSP) systems, or photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells, to harness sunlight and facilitate the electrolysis of water. The goal is to split water into its constituent elements, hydrogen and oxygen, where the hydrogen is captured and used as a clean and sustainable energy carrier. The solar based hydrogen generation market plays a crucial role in the broader context of the energy transition, offering a pathway to produce hydrogen sustainably and support a cleaner energy ecosystem. It aligns with global efforts to reduce carbon emissions, enhance energy security, and promote the use of renewable resources.

My first published article is finally out :) We've recently published an article about E-methanol production, where the production facility was optimised using different electricity source alternatives. The selected time horizon (2018-2022) shows significant changes in spot-electricity price volatility and on the optimum dimensioning of the facility. Renewable energy sources seemed to provide less variability in the optimum dimensioning from year to year, especially when both solar and wind power are used, although they resulted in higher e-methanol production cost. The open access article is available in International Renewable Energy Storage and Systems Conference (IRES 2023) proceedings. https://lnkd.in/dWmJAW4h

✳️The share of renewable energies in electricity production has increased considerably. In 2023, approximately 54% of the electricity generated came from renewable sources, mainly wind power (28%), photovoltaics (12%), and biomass (8.6%).   Renewable energies, particularly wind and solar power, are subject to significant fluctuations due to their weather-dependency. This leads to variable input into the grid, which must be balanced by other flexible power sources. The increase in renewable energies requires greater flexibility and resilience of the energy system. This involves both technical adjustments and regulatory measures to successfully manage the energy transition. Challenges include ensuring a constant power supply and avoiding grid congestion, which can be addressed through a combination of storage solutions, flexible power plants, and improved grid management.   Do you want to learn more about this topic?
