📰⚡ It is rare to see renewable energy associations and heavy industry players agreeing on matters of energy policy – however just this is currently happening regarding discussions to split the German electricity market into two or more separate “bidding zones”. Southern industries fear rising prices, while northern wind energy producers are afraid of falling prices. Supported by some grid operators, they caution against the split. Proponents argue that lower prices in high-production regions could attract energy-intensive industries like electrolysers. Various economic arguments have been presented on both sides. So, what is the legal background for this discussion and who will decide? Partner Dr. Christine Bader shares her insights in our latest article as part of our 'Heavy Industries Go Light' article series: https://lnkd.in/eUZRm_MW #WFW #EnergyTransition #Renewables #Power

📉 Trends in Renewable Energy PPA Prices: A Comparative Analysis 🌍 LevelTen Energy’s latest report highlights notable shifts in renewable energy PPA prices. In Europe, solar PPA prices fell by 27% in Q2 2024, averaging €62.83/MWh, influenced by political uncertainties and legislative changes. The wind sector also saw a 29% drop. Conversely, North American PPA prices have remained stable, with solar PPAs averaging US$53.68/MWh due to a steady political environment. 🌞 This data underscores the impact of political climates on renewable energy markets. How do you think political shifts will influence renewable energy trends in the coming years?

#SolarEnergy Boom in the #US The U.S. solar energy industry is flourishing following several favorable climate policies and greater consumer interest in solar power. The public and private sectors have invested heavily in the uptake of solar energy installations over the past five years, with significantly more growth expected to come over the next decade and beyond. https://buff.ly/3YF67ig #EntraConsulting #oil #gas #energy #shale #renewableenergy #petroleo #energia #electricidad #energiasrenovables

Synhelion and Plug Power push Western green fuel Green fuels have a fundamental problem – cost, which looks set to relegate them into the 2030s or even 2040s. This is all the more true in the West, whereas places like Xinjiang or Gujarat could start producing cost-effective fuel out of solar and wind power much earlier. The past week has seen some major announcements from Synhelion and Plug Power, for projects in Spain and Australia respectively – so can they make green fuels turn a profit already in the latter half of the 2020s? #solar #wind #greenfuel #renewables

Power sectors globally are shifting away from fossil fuels; capturing renewable energy to power energy networks. For the first time, wind and solar have overtaken fossil fuel generation, providing 30% of the European Union’s electricity. A report from climate think tank Ember found EU power plants burned 24% less coal and 14% less gas from the first half of 2023 to the first half of 2024. We’re excited to see more renewable energy generation coming online globally, as well as growing investment in long duration energy storage; the solution to making clean energy dispatchable and on demand 24/7.

The valuation of renewable energy plants requires careful analysis of market trends and potential risks. In particular, exogenous shocks on the commodity markets or in the demand for electricity have had a strong influence on the price of electricity in the past. But climate change also has an impact on the revenues of renewable energies. In our blog post from Montel, we describe in more detail how we can use our power price scenario swarms to support decision-making in a volatile energy market. 📄 See the blog articel here: https://lnkd.in/eWg6qUGn #renewableenergies #electricityprice #powerprice #montelanalytics

⭕ The German government coalition collapsed. ⭕ The German Chancellor asks the Parliament for a Vote of Confidence (meaning in this very case, intentionally, asking for a Vote of No-Confidence to pave the way towards early elections). ❓ What does it mean for energy transitions investments in Germany? What does it mean for the energy transition plans already initiated or in planning? 💡 See below Katrin Andrä Tibor Fedke Dr. Carsten Bringmann
Potential of the energy transition for investors in Germany – Noerr Insight No 8: Reappraisal after coalition collapses (Full article: https://lnkd.in/gMGUxkFt) In our briefing German energy transition: Potential for investors we gave a detailed overview of the opportunities and risks of the energy transition in Germany for domestic and foreign investors. In our series of Insight articles we then looked in detail at the opportunities and challenges in the offshore wind, onshore wind, photovoltaics, renewable energy storage, electricity grids, hydrogen and geothermal energy sectors and examined the legislative plans of the coalition government. Now that the coalition government has collapsed, many of the legislative plans already initiated or in planning have been called into question.

It's our mission to reduce the carbon emission! ☀💨 In 2021, we received the support from Energy Aid to install solar power plant and wind turbine. Since then, 10% of our electrical power needs's been supplied from renewable energy. ✔ It's estimated that we have avoided burning 17,3 ton of coal. Not only better for the environment, the system also helps the ASRI clinic operations keep running when the main power source went out. We're committed to maintain the system and we wish to improve it and achieve net-zero emission in the future 😁 Be our supporter! https://lnkd.in/g6zC8hEE #RenewableEnergy #ReduceCarbonEmission #GreenEnergy #SolarPower #WindPower
