A new study shows the benefits of coordinating the siting of solar farms, wind farms, and storage systems, taking into account local and temporal variations in wind, sunlight, and energy demand. This ...

Such systems create electricity. Even if power is turned off to the home, and incident commanders at fires typically have dispatchers call the electric company to do this right away, solar panels and ...

A research team led by scientists from India's Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering has developed a tree-type of PV-wind power system for off-grid applications. “A hybrid tree is a synthetic ...

Wind energy infrastructure doesn’t produce power if the air isn’t moving, and solar doesn’t generate power if the sun’s not out. But that doesn’t mean that either source of energy is "worthless" ...

Wind, solar and other renewables hit a new high last year but the government is still some way off its clean power target.

Renewable energy is no longer a distant vision of the future – it’s happening here and now. With solar installations set to cross 1 terawatt by 2025 and wind energy already playing a vital role in ...

An offshore solar farm is being deployed close to an existing wind farm as part of a project in the Dutch North Sea. The developers have recently installed an anchoring system that will hold the solar ...

‘Homegrown energy sources, such as wind and solar, take on more strategic value in a world faced by frequent crises,’ explained Dr Chris Rosslowe. Image: Arno Senoner, Unsplash. Expanded ...

Electricity is not a policy construct. It is physics – and the physics have not changed since Michael Faraday and the steam ...
