Our New Energy’s Post

Congratulations to Foivos Maniatis and Ignacio Moreno Roche on winning the Nordic Energy Challenge 2023! Their proposal “Heraclitus2” was selected by the jury with the following motivation: "The winning proposal manifests an essential solution for making the Nordic energy system more resilient, using an innovative software algorithm that can enable smart and flexible operation of hydrogen microgrids to meet the future energy demands of, e.g., remote communities in the region.   Foivos and Ignacio underline argumentatively how their solution can strengthen local and regional security through stabilising national power grids, extending the reliance on decentralised energy production and increasing regional self-sufficiency by utilising the Nordic renewable energy sources to a greater extent. In addition, the solution is already being tested as a demonstration project in Norway, underlining its demand and feasibility. We look forward to following up on the development of this exciting proposal, which, in addition, can add more value by making the consumers become prosumers." Nordic Energy Research would like to thank all applicants for participating in the Nordic Energy Challenge and wish them the best of luck in future commitments!

Already missing the thrilling energy of the two-day Volue Energy Networking days event in Berlin. Grateful for the opportunity to moderate, shape discussions, and collaborate with insightful speakers in the breakout rooms about Europe’s power sector’s future. There we discussed the European electricity market design with Vincent Thevenin and Gunnar Aronsen from TSO and market perspectives, as well as the changes that hydrogen and battery technologies bring to it with Konstantin Lenz and Maliha Raihan Pranti. **Key Takeaways** from the freshest analysis we produced at Insight by Volue: - Green hydrogen's potential won't suffice for all needs. - Weather dependency impacts green hydrogen production. - Flexible capacity gaps affect renewable revenue. - Electrolysers stabilize hourly price profiles. - Battery expansion is vital for renewable integration. - Predicting hydrogen prices and multi-market battery revenue mitigates uncertainty for market planning. These discussions shed light on diverse pathways to a sustainable energy future. Heartfelt thanks to all presenters for their contributions! #RenewableFuture #SustainabilityLeadership #MarketDesign

Greece Gets Crafty with Solar Power: Daytime Discounts to Balance the Grid! Solar power is booming in Greece, but sunshine surpluses are causing midday grid headaches. To keep things bright, Greece is exploring some innovative solutions: Daytime Discounts: Thinking of switching on the laundry during lunch? Greece might reward you for using power when the sun is shining! Smart Appliance Subsidies: #SmartHomes to the rescue! Greece might offer incentives for appliances that can automatically adjust energy use based on these new tariffs. This win-win could be a game changer for solar power integration! Bye-bye, Grid Instability: Balancing solar generation with consumer demand will create a more stable grid. Hello, Renewable Energy Future! Greece's approach could inspire other countries embracing solar power. Greece is leading the charge in smart solar solutions! What do you think of this creative approach? https://lnkd.in/ezzz7KT9 #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #ClimateAction

Obsolete satellite antennas in the Swiss Alps will be repurposed into giant solar panels, to generate much-needed green energy in Switzerland. #Switzerland #solarenergy #renewableenergy #greenenergy #Alps https://lnkd.in/eUDKnnh2

Recap of the Conference Session | Addressing the Challenges of Europe's Solar & Storage Boom at KEY 🌞🔋 We would like to thank 🙏 KEY - The Energy Transition Expo for hosting our Conference in Rimini today. 🙏 Saif Islam, Dirk Kaisers, Filip Sypko, Jim Chen, Emilio Manzoni, Petra Zelenická, Edoardo Pulvirenti, Giovanni Buogo, Jacky huang, Dr. Lin ZeBo and Andrea Tedesco for their valuable expert insights. 🙏 Daniel Fuchs, Chief Customer Officer at EUPD Research Energy, for moderating our energizing conference and representing our companies at this successful trade show. Here are some key takeaways from the event: ✅️ 2023 was another record year for the EU-27 PV installations with the market installing a total of around 59 GWdc, leading to a YoY growth of 44%. This record number can mainly be attributed to comparatively higher energy prices and the EU member states to reach their climate targets. ✅️ Germany followed by Spain, and Italy, were the top 3 PV markets in the European Union in 2023 with total newly installed capacity of ~27.6 GWdc injust these three markets (47% of the EU market in 2023). ✅️ The top five leading countries, Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland and the Netherlands, have installed ~36 GWdc in 2023. This accounts for a substantial 62% of the total capacity in 2023. ✅️ The Netherlands boasted the highest PV capacity per capita in the EU-27 states, standing at 1,318 watts. Germany, Luxembourg, and Spain followed closely in the rankings. Let's keep driving the energy transition ahead! 💪 #Event #KEY #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #Italy

It takes 100,000 TWh to electrify the world. Currently around 3,000 TWh is produced by wind and solar, so we need 30x to reach 100%, according to Henrik Stiesdal in his closing statement of todays conference #FremdtidensEuropæiskeEnergipolitik. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), wave energy has a potential of about 29,500 TWh. Wave energy thereby has the potential to fill part of the void that still exist. We at Wavepiston Bring Wave Energy to the World. Good discussions about the need for electrification and EU’s trilemma: green transition (#GreenDeal), energy security (#RepowerEU) and competitiveness in manufacturing and supply chain (#NetzeroIndustryAct). But besides all the good plans there is also a big demand for implementation power. Thank you for a great conference, Danish Industry Tænketanken EUROPA Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners Green Power Denmark Ps: blown away by todays moderator: Lykke Friis. Knowledgeable and quick witted!

The energy landscape in Italy is about to explode, and if you're a financial player or a developer, you don't want to miss the (proverbial) boat.   Terna SpA, the nation's electric grid system and transmission operator, predicts that Italy will need 15GW of total capacity by 2030, of which 9GW/71GWh needs to be LDES. And, after the official EU approval (back in December 2023) of Italy's €17.7 billion state aid for this large-scale energy storage rollout, the future looks brighter than ever.   This is a hot topic right now, and unlocking this huge opportunity comes with some unknowns and questions needing sound, intelligent and well-informed answers, such as: "Where are the most favourable market conditions?"; "How will opening up new markets for batteries such as frequency response help drive deployment?" or "What are the expected long-duration energy storage mechanisms appearing in Italy?" and others.   Well, we can confidently say that Energy Dome has some great answers…   Our COO - Energy Storage as a Service, Ben Potter, will be in London on 20-21 February at the Energy Storage Summit - London (Novotel London West) organised by Energy-Storage.news / Solar Media Limited to debate these and other intriguing topics in a panel aptly titled: "Unlocking Opportunities in Italy's Energy Storage Landscape", which will take place on 20 February at 14.40.   During the panel, Ben will also explain in detail why our technology (i.e. the CO2 Battery) is eligible for the LDES Italian auction and very well positioned in terms of competitiveness and technical benefits; he'll also talk about our first-of-a-kind 20MW-200MWh CO2 Battery that'll reach COD in Q3 2024.   So, next week, come down to the Energy Storage Summit - London to learn more about the future of the Italian Energy landscape, Energy Dome's offering and the trailblazing parts they're playing in long-duration energy storage. #EnergyDome #OurWorldCantWait #sustainability #longdurationenergystorage #innovation #CO2Battery #decarbonization #LDES #renewables
