utility-scale solar

From 26 August to 1 September, Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM) saw the highest rooftop and utility-scale solar PV contribution across the 2024 winter period.

The Bureau of Land Management has proposed using 31 million acres of public land for the development of solar PV across 11 US western states.

India’s cumulative installed solar capacity stood at 87.2GW by the end of June 2024 and accounts for 19.5% of all power capacity installed.

According to data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) latest report “Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory”, solar PV accounted for 59% of all additions.

Over the next two to three years, the companies aim to build solar PV projects of at least 20MW capacity in Germany.

This project is a private-public collaboration between the utility, the Basque Energy Agency (EVE), the regional council of Alava and the cooperative Mondragon Group.

Singaporean renewables energy company Nexif Ratch Energy (NRE) has confirmed the start of commercial operations at a 74MWp solar PV project in Camarines Sur, South Luzon, the Philippines.

India added around 12.2GW of new solar capacity in the first half of the year, according to figures from JMK Research.

SMA Solar has published its latest financial results, reporting sales of €759.3 million (US$829.4 million) in the first half of the year.

AEMO has confirmed that demand in South Australia and Victoria hit a historic low, as solar PV achieves winter record levels on NEM and SWIS.
