🌍 All developed economies have set the goal of carbon-neutrality by 2050. ⚡ Achieving a high proportion of renewable energy production in the UK is only possible with suitable energy storage infrastructure, to bridge periods of low power generation from wind or solar energy.  🔋 In our new article, Professor Robert Dryfe, explores how long duration energy storage technologies, like batteries, could solve this challenge and makes recommendations as to how policymakers can support their roll out. 📰 Read it here - https://lnkd.in/ebjcEfVQ

The integration of hybridization is a pivotal element in expediting the shift towards sustainable energy. Hybrid energy systems, complemented by energy storage solutions, are reshaping the renewable energy landscape by effectively addressing the variability and intermittency inherent in renewable sources. These systems combine multiple renewable sources to one grid connection point and can provide a more consistent power output. EDP embarked on the path of hybrid energy systems several years ago. In 2022, we introduced the first floating solar park in Alqueva, Portugal, which integrates solar and hydroelectric energy sourced from the Alqueva dam, alongside a battery storage system.

*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*

Solar energy has evolved from its humble beginnings to become a cornerstone of the global energy system. Starting with the first practical silicon solar cell in 1954, the sector experienced a surge in innovation and investment, especially after the oil crisis of the 1970s. Today, solar modules have efficiencies of over 22% and their costs have halved since 2022. The International Renewable Energy Agency reports that solar energy is the fastest growing renewable energy source and that global capacity will reach 2,167 GW by the end of 2024. Advances in perovskite and quantum dot solar cells as well as bifacial and floating power plants promise even higher efficiencies and innovative applications. Read the article to find out more about the exciting advances and future potential of solar energy. https://lnkd.in/dZGeebDx
