pv power plants

The Australian Energy Market Commissioner (AEMC) has released a final determination to enable virtual power plants (VPPs) to compete directly with large-scale generators in Australia’s energy market.

The portfolio comprises 780MWp of solar PV and battery energy storage system (BESS) assets at “various stages of development.”

With the close of this deal, LS Power takes ownership of 44 solar PV and wind projects across North America.

Energy generation and storage developer Estuary Power has closed a US$340 million financing package for a 185MW solar-plus-storage project being constructed in Lincoln County, Nevada, US.

The Western Australian government has awarded AU$16 million in funding to bolster clean energy projects, including solar PV and BESS projects.

Renewable energy developer Acen Australia is seeking Federal government approval for its 100MW Cooma solar-plus-storage project in New South Wales.

Lumea, the commercial entity of Australian transmission system operator Transgrid, is set to connect one of New South Wales’ largest solar PV power plants to the National Electricity Market (NEM).

Maxeon opened the case in June 2023. The case concerns shingled solar cell technology patents used in Maxeon’s Performance line modules

The plant, located in the Murcia region of Spain, is one of Europe’s “largest” operational solar PV installations.

The demise of SunPower and the ongoing struggles of Maxeon dominated the news in Q3 2024, along with forecasts of a lengthy industry downturn.
