THE company behind behind a landmark orbital solar farm has reached a key milestone in its mission to power homes with limitless green energy from space. Space Solar has managed to light up an LED sign of its name by beaming power through the air in a special anechoic chamber at Queen’s University, Belfast. 1 It will even save households money on their energy billsCredit: Alamy The ability to beam power through air alone marks a big step forward for the company. Space Solar wants to commission a 2,000 ton…

The solar eclipse on April 8 will have hordes of Americans’ heads craning skyward in their eclipse glasses. But this rare event might lead you to have more worries than just the possibility of damaging your vision.  With an energy ecosystem increasingly fueled by the power of sunlight, the sky going dark at midday is a big deal. “The impacts on solar generation are actually quite significant,” Barry Mather, chief engineer at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, told CNET. Fortunately, because solar eclipses are extraordinarily predictable, grid operators have had plenty of…

Fluvius, Belgium’s electricity grid operator, says it will compensate residential PV systems at €10.60 ($11.49) per kVa if they are not reconnected within 30 working days after a curtailment event. April 5, 2024 Emiliano Bellini Image: MPMPix, Pixabay Fluvius said it has started paying compensation for the curtailment of energy from residential PV systems. The company said it received 5,042 complaints from residential PV array owners last year, as their inverters were not immediately reconnected after curtailment incidents. The company added that it is testing advanced voltage regulators that respond…

Abstract This article offers a PV-PEMFC-batteries energy management strategy (EMS) that aims to meet the following goals: keep the DC link steady at the standard value, increase battery lifespan, and meet power demand. The suggested multi-source renewable system (MSRS) is made to meet load demand while using extra power to fill batteries. The major energy source for the MSRS is photovoltaic, and fuzzy logic MPPT is used to guarantee that the PV operates at optimal efficiency under a variety of irradiation conditions. The suggested state machine control consists of 15…
