Renewable energies are about to surpass nuclear power on U.S. electrical grid Renewable energies are “within striking distance” of surpassing nuclear power in terms of the amount of energy contributed to the electrical grid in the U.S., according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF). The U.S. generated 18 percent of its electrical power from renewable … Continue reading Renewable energies are about to surpass nuclear power on U.S. electrical grid→
Solar PV Plus Batteries A Game Changer In The Switch To Renewable Energy? I’ve assumed for some time that there will be many components to the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, and of course, that is true. But suddenly things are crystallizing around some combination solutions. A key solution seems to be … Continue reading Solar PV Plus Batteries A Game Changer In The Switch To Renewable Energy?→
Low gas prices, renewable energy squeeze Bonneville Power Administration BPA’s hydro and nuclear resources are facing the same pressures as coal plants in other parts of the country: cheap natural gas has made it difficult to compete, while wind and solar comes online amid stagnant demand. BPA has provided the region’s lowest-cost power for years, … Continue reading Low gas prices, renewable energy squeeze Bonneville Power Administration #BPA→
EIA: Wind to beat hydro as leading US renewable resource in next 2 years Because the weather is hard to predict, so too are wind and hydro generation. “Because few new hydro plants are expected to come online in the next two years, hydroelectric generation in 2018 and 2019 will largely depend on precipitation and … Continue reading EIA : Wind to beat hydro as leading US renewable resource in next 2 years→
Natural gas killed coal – now renewables and batteries are taking over To avoid dangerous climate change, we can’t rely on natural gas replacing coal Over the past decade, coal has been increasingly replaced by cheaper, cleaner energy sources. US coal power production has dropped by 44% (866 terawatt-hours [TWh]). It’s been replaced by natural … Continue reading Natural gas killed coal – now renewables and batteries are taking over→
Renewable Energy Is Much Faster To Install & More Scalable Than Nuclear Power Myth: We need to build more nuclear power if we want to cut electricity emissions quickly and turn off coal and natural gas power plants. Short answer: Renewables can grow fast because they can be installed practically everywhere rapidly and simultaneously. Renewable … Continue reading Renewable Energy Is Much Faster To Install & More Scalable Than Nuclear Power→
New York pushes energy storage to solve renewable power’s biggest problem New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo this month announced an ambitious plan for deploying energy storage, a technology that can mitigate renewable power’s most persistent problem: how to use it when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing. “This is the clearest and … Continue reading New York pushes energy storage to solve renewable power’s biggest problem→
This is how coal dies — super cheap renewables plus battery storage Solar, wind, and battery prices are dropping so fast that, in Colorado, building new renewable power plus battery storage is now cheaper than running old coal plants. This increasingly renders existing coal plants obsolete. Two weeks ago, Xcel Energy quietly reported dozens of … Continue reading This is how coal dies — super cheap renewables plus battery storage→
NV Energy seeks up to 330 MW of renewables, and possibly battery storage NV Energy has issued a request for proposals that could add up to 330-MW of new renewable energy projects to be built in Nevada. This additional commitment to renewables, which includes the potential integration of battery energy storage systems, will provide enough … Continue reading NV Energy seeks up to 330 MW of renewables, and possibly battery storage→
