Con Edison wants projects totaling at least 200 MW in New York City and Westchester County. O&R is looking for projects totaling 10 MW.
The project is on land leased from Edwards Air Force Base. Mortenson is the EPC contractor, First Solar is supplying the solar modules, and LG Chem and Samsung are supplying batteries.
Maui’s electric power grid is expected to operate with 100% solar and wind on an instantaneous basis as early as 2024, and NREL is helping the island plan to reliably supply electricity.
The 250 MW solar + 180 MWh storage project in southwest Indiana will be connected to the utility’s existing Petersburg Generating Station.
The two companies led the initial effort to impose tariffs and now claim they have been unable to complete plans to adjust to import competition given the pandemic, alleged “predatory” pricing, and other factors.
Also on the rise: Three startups that aim to change the solar and clean tech sectors, battery companies join effort to improve cycling performance, solar PV shipments rose in 2020 as demand grew and costs fell, and more.
The 30 MW of solar capacity is slated to be completed in 2022, with another 20 MW under development with Swinerton Renewable Energy.
The Photovoltaics Report published by Fraunhofer ISE said that Europe had just 1.25 GW of solar wafer production capacity at the end of 2020.
Also starting up: Edgehog secures funding for its self-cleaning, anti-reflective glass; and Maana Electric looks to the Moon for its shipping container-sized PV module factories.
By targeting a specific organic material used in lead batteries, the group hopes to improve charging efficiency, which would result in longer battery life.
