Contact Energy Ltd’s Post

When Contact slips an all-hands meeting in the calendar at late notice you know its going to be big news. As the caffeine started working its magic we heard that the go button has been pressed on construction of Te Mihi Stage 2, the new geothermal binary plant of 101MW which will come online in 2027 ⚡ It's all go, as next week as we officially open our new geothermal power station at Tauhara which at full capacity will operate at 174MW. A renewable energy project that will provide secure, baseload, reliable power to Kiwi homes and businesses, and an important long-term asset for NZ. But wait there more..... soon after, Te Huka 3, one of the world’s largest single unit binary geothermal power stations, is expected to come online for its 30-day reliability run. Both new geothermal power stations will produce clean, low carbon renewable electricity and operate around the clock, unaffected by weather or fossil fuel supply. Together Tauhara and Te Huka 3 will generate enough renewable energy to power the equivalent of 260,000 New Zealand homes. Geothermal energy is an important renewable energy source and provides invaluable baseload generation. Let's get after it 🌏 🌟

A significant development for both sustainable generation and energy security.

*RENEWABLE ENERGY DAY* The Day is observed *20th August annually,* to honour *Late PM Shri Rajiv Gandhi's contributions to renewable energy and sustainable development and also to raise awareness about the importance of renewable energy sources,* such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power. First observed by the *Ministry of New and Renewable Energy in 2004.* *"Enery Transition Now-Fast,Smart,Resilient"* *#renewableenergyday* *#sustainabledevelopment* *#energytransition* *#MJCAS*

Sustainable Energy

🌱 Renewable Energy! 🌞 Let's spark a conversation about renewable energy and its incredible potential in shaping a sustainable future for all of us. From solar and wind power to hydroelectric and geothermal energy, there are so many exciting developments happening in this space. We're curious to hear your thoughts: - What renewable energy technologies are you most excited about? - How do you think we can accelerate the adoption of renewable energy on a global scale? - What role do you see businesses and governments playing in driving the transition to renewable energy? It would be great to share ideas, insights, and inspiration as we work towards a cleaner, greener planet together!

Canada's renewable energy landscape is growing, and the future looks bright! ☀️ I was just checking out this fantastic resource from the University of Alberta: an updated map showcasing the growth of renewable energy and battery energy storage systems across Canada. It's truly inspiring to see the progress we're making, with Alberta and Ontario leading the charge! What also caught my eye is the HUGE untapped potential for solar energy in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario. There are massive opportunities waiting to be seized! Check out the map for yourself and see how Canada is powering towards a sustainable future: https://lnkd.in/guSH6-UA #renewableenergy #solar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy

The #energytransition has led to the curation of new technologies to develop low-carbon projects and drive progress towards ever-growing #netzero targets. The latest geothermal systems have the potential to be used far more widely than before, poising geothermal energy as the next best low-carbon solution. But which #oilandgas operators are investing in geothermal? And what’s the commercial potential for geothermal energy? Find out with our insight and report: https://okt.to/CTWZl7 #geothermalenergy

Check out this article by Gökhan Demirel, at Rödl & Partner Türkiye, as they share a brief overview on the latest feed-in tariff (FIT) 📈 subsidy for renewable energy projects in Türkiye. These updates are based on YEKDEM, a Renewable Energy Resources Support Mechanism 🌱. With the FIT being revised on a monthly basis ☝. With Geothermal Plants ♨ having a higher rates among the green renewables, this highlights Türkiye's support to encourage further geothermal development in the country 🙌.
