This allows renewable energy to flow to homes and business across Canberra when demand is high and solar generation drops. Construction is now underway on concrete bases for the batteries and the main switching building. This stored energy will be used to support our electricity grid. The Big Canberra battery. . This goal was reached in 2020 when the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) — home to the nation's half a million-strong capital, Canberra — had enough renewable electricity to make coal and gas obsolete. This 250MW/400MWh lithium-ion battery facility – equivalent to powering 100,000 homes for 4 hours – exemplifies how grid-scale storage bridges renewable energy gaps. . Batteries will play a key role in the electricity system by reinforcing the quality of the grid's supply and boosting the penetration of renewables at times of low electricity production, which is a key milestone in the energy transition.

Thanks to a simple yet powerful technology called balkonkraftwerk, or balcony solar system — half a million balconies across the country are now mini power stations. Here's what can be learned from their surging popularity in Germany. Transitioning to renewables is critical when it comes to confronting the climate crisis, and Germany is seeing this. . Balcony solar emerged around a decade ago, but didn't catch on until four or five years ago, thanks in part to years of lobbying by solar and clean energy advocates for policies to foster its adoption. . Find out how Germany is investing in large solar projects to help achieve its 2030 target of generating 80% of its electricity from renewable sources. Unlike rooftop photovoltaics, the technology doesn't require users to own their home, and anyone capable of plugging in an appliance can set it up. Most people buy the simple. .

We are happy to announce that our first investment in new renewable energy, an innovative solar plus battery storage project in Kern County, is now producing power. This project was built by developer Terra-Gen at Edwards Air Force Base with union labor. The project has secured interconnection at the Metcalf substation at 115 kv and is gen-tied via a City of San Jose public easement. It guarantees delivery of 62 megawatts (MW). . The solar farm portion of the Kern County project was built to generate 62 MW at capacity. The Californian city of San José aims to produce enough clean electricity to power nearly 65,000. .
