The Tech Council of Australia (TCA) has today (25 February) launched the Consumer Energy Tech Alliance (CETA), aiming to support the uptake of solar PV, battery storage, and smart technologies with its integration into the energy grid.
Construction has started on a 400MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) that will be co-located with Acen Australia's 720MW New England solar PV power plant in New South Wales, Australia.
A high breakage rate in thin PV module glass is a vulnerability that is not yet widely understood due to inadequate testing regimes, according to the IEA PVPS.
