bi-facial PV modules in Australia and the largest semi-scheduled solar farm participating in the National Electricity Market to utilise string inverters. These technologies represent an innovative step towards maximising energy production per hectare, which in turn maximises plant availability and ...
Objections Voiced to Plans for 16.2-Hectare Solar Farmjason, Jason Lock
Boralex Inc.has commissioned its first floating solar farm, in Peyrolles-en-Provence, in the French area of Bouches-du-Rhône. The facility consists of more than 43,000 photovoltaic panels for a total installed capacity of 12 MW AC, assembled into a 12-hectare island in the “Chapeliers”...
The solar farm will produce close to 75 GWh per year, and 60% of that will be allocated to Solvay under a 20-year corporate power purchase agreement (PPA). Solvay selected the land for the project. The whole surface spans 172 hectares and includes two rehabilitated settling ponds from Solva...
Walla Walla Solar Farm is a planned 300MWac solar photovoltaic (PV) project in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. The project is being developed by Fotowatio Renewable Ventures Australia (FRV Australia). This is the company’s fourth solar development project in New South Wales that secured dev...
Spark New Zealand forged a ten-year deal to purchase all power generated by Genesis Energy’s first solar farm, providing as much as 60 per cent of the operator’s annual electricity requirement and advancing its sustainability goals. Genesis aims to complete the construction of a 63MW solar ...
The 287-hectare facility, operated by CHN Energy’s subsidiary Guohua Energy Investment Co Ltd, has a power generation capacity of 400 MW and energy storage capacity of 60 MW/120 MWh. The on-site hydrogen production and refueling station has a capacity of 1,500 cubic metres per hour ...
South Australian utility SA Water is set to flick the switch on the “world’s largest” portable solar array, as work has started on a 12 MW prefabricated PV system at the Happy Valley Reservoir near Adelaide.
Plant energy is produced by crops specifically grown for use as fuel that offer high biomass output per hectare with low input energy. The grain can be used for liquid transportation fuels while the straw can be burned to produce heat or electricity. Plant biomass can also be degraded from ce...
