curtailment

Public policy think tank the Australia Institute has released new research arguing that reconfiguring off-peak hot water systems could mitigate 4,000GWh of curtailed solar PV and wind energy on the National Electricity Market (NEM).

Stelios Psomas, policy advisor at HELAPCO looks at the current state of the solar PV market in Greece and what role energy storage plays.

Solar and storage are playing a key role in Japan's push towards energy security, according to Uranulzii Batbayer and Aniket Autade of Rystad.

Ahead of Large Scale Solar Southern Europe next week in Athens, Greece, PV Tech spoke with some of the panellists present at the event about the solar Greek market, including its challenges (curtailment, grid), policy support, and new technologies (agriPV, FPV, or green hydrogen).

How VPPs could help reduce solar PV curtailment in California, while also helping financially to install a solar array and storage.

For the second year in a row, solar PV outpaced wind in global electricity growth generation in 2023, according to energy think tank Ember.

More than a quarter of the European Union’s (EU) electricity (27%) came from solar and wind in 2023, according to new analysis from energy thinktank Ember.

Switzerland-based institutional investment group SUSI Partners has entered a development deal for two large-scale solar-plus-storage hybrid power plants in Chile.

Solar curtailments in California, the US, have never been higher in 2023, as solar generation outpaces transmission capacity upgrades, according to a report from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA).

SolarPower Europe and 19 renewable associations have published an open letter to the EU, calling for a more effective European power grid.
