The deployment of a vanadium flow battery at a fire station run by Native Americans illustrates the role that the energy storage technology can play in ensuring that nobody is disadvantaged by the shift away from fossil fuels.

Tracker company Nevados supply Ampliform’s near-term project pipeline of 700 MW as well as its longer-term pipeline of 2 GW of projects under development.

Also on the rise: Linton Crystal to move PV equipment manufacturing back to the U.S. EV battery has 50% more energy density than traditional lithium-ion, 10-minute charge. And more.

The utility solar project will result in capital investment of $1 billion and supply clean power to roughly 120,000 homes. The facility is expected to create more than 900 construction jobs and is expected to reach commercial scale operations by December 2024.

Solar currently provides less than 1% of Ohio’s electrical needs. That is expected to change, however, as nearly 8.8 GW of mostly utility-scale solar is expected to be installed over the next five years, making Ohio one of the top five solar states in the country.

Also on the rise: World’s largest used EV battery power facility in California. Enel adds 2 GW of North America renewable capacity in 2022. And more.

An Ohio water station will enhance its ability to deliver safe and clean water during extended grid outages.

Utility-scale solar and wind projects developed by Enel totaled 1.98 GW last year, while power purchase agreements reached 630 MW. The company added three major North American businesses last year.

The largest UL-certified facility was expanded by 750 former Honda Clarity and Nissan Leaf EV batteries, bringing its total storage capacity to 25 MWh.
