CS Energy has completed the largest solar project in New Jersey. CS Energy designed, procured and installed the power plant, creating a tailored worksite. The project owner, Ben Moreell solar farm and Department of the Navy (DON), leased approximately 170 acres of underutilized land for the development of a 28.5 MW ground-mount project at Naval Weapons Station Earle (NWS Earle), in Tinton Falls. At construction height, CS Energy’s team of local workers safely installed a 4,000 solar panels every day. CS Energy will install a separate meter solar system directly connecting to the NWS Earle utility grid, supplying renewable energy to…

VSUN has introduced a new half-cell module with a power output of up to 450W, produced by a 166 mm ‘large-format’ silicon wafer, the manufacturer’s multi-busbar technology and PERC half-cell technology. This version of VSUN 450W+ has a recorded conversion efficiency of 20.37 percent. The VSUN450W+ could help investors reduce costs and offer higher ROI ( return on investment) with both lower BOS (system balance) costs and lower LCOE (levelized cost of energy), and it could also become the best option for investors in global scale power stations, the company explained.

In a letter to the Dutch Lower House of Parliament, Finance Minister Hoekstra presented his preferred scenario for meeting TenneT’s capital requirement as a result of rising investments (due to the energy transition) and persistently low-interest rates. Participation by the German State in TenneT is the government’s preferred scenario, which has led to the conclusion that a minority stake of the German State in TenneT Holding or TenneT Germany will be worked out. According to the government, this scenario fits best within the formulated political objectives and preconditions. The objectives are holding on to the advantages of TenneT’s cross border…

Siemens Gamesa has launched the world’s biggest offshore turbine, the SG 14-222 DD with a capacity of 14MW, a 222 meter rotor diameter, 108 meter long blades, and 39.000 m2 sweeping area. The 14 MW capacity allows one SG 14-222 DD machine to produce enough energy annually to power around 18.000 average European households. In addition, approximately 30 SG 14-222 DD offshore wind turbines could cover the annual electricity consumption of Bilbao, Spain. The first prototype will be ready in 2021, while commercially the turbine will be available in 2024. “We’ve gone bigger for the better. Safely and sustainably providing…
