Solar PV capacity will overtake wind within five years, according to a new forecast, but wind power generation will outpace that of solar. More than 85% of new non-hydropower renewable capacity will be installed in just ten markets, over the next decade, but expansion will also be supported by a…...

National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) researchers estimate that installing floating solar photovoltaics on the more than 24,000 human-made U.S. reservoirs could generate about 10 percent of the nation’s annual electricity production. Their findings, published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, reveal for the first time the potential for floating PV…
Wind turbines are designed to generate energy, not store it. When winds are sufficient, the power goes straight to the transmission grid. But if the grid gets more energy than it can handle, electricity prices drop and turbines are shut down. The reverse is also an issue. When winds are…
Renewables provided almost one-third of the UK’s total power output in Q3 2018, a record high for that period of the year, boosted by the summer’s heatwave and high wind speeds. That performance also lifted the total share of power from low carbon sources to 56%, another record high for…
Rarely thought of as being the crusaders of the green power transformation, chief financial officers looking to lower energy costs could find themselves at the forefront of a renewables revolution. The commercial and industrial sector accounts for two-thirds of the world’s end-of-use of electricity and as the appetite for more…
The European Investment Bank (EIB) has granted its first EIB Green Loan to Endesa. This financing aims to make it easier to invest in energy efficiency and renewable energy sources. Although the EIB has financed a number of projects of this kind in its long history of combating climate change,…
Apologies for the delay in posting this blog. We have all been working tirelessly behind the scenes to finalise the merger between WREA (was) and World of Renewables to form your new body – WoREA. Our name, The World Renewable Energy Association, remains the same but our website and new…
RenewableUK is highlighting the record amount of offshore wind capacity installed this year. More than 2 gigawatts (GW) went operational in UK waters during 2018 – enough to power over 2,300,000 homes all year round. In 2018 eight new offshore wind farms were officially opened, bringing the annual total of…
