What is Renewable energy integration, challenges, why it is needed

Baua Electric

what is renewable energy integration ? Renewable energy integration refers to the process of efficiently incorporating renewable energy sources into existing energy systems. Energy Storage: Renewable energy sources are often intermittent, meaning they don’t produce energy consistently.

Wärtsilä and partners to cooperate in wind-to-hydrogen-to-electricity project; other power-to-X fuels

Green Car Congress

The project will be based in Vaasa and will focus on enabling a new way to store renewable energy. The system will use renewable energy to produce hydrogen to be stored and reprocessed. The solution is not limited to the use of hydrogen—the letter X refers also to other fuels, such as synthetic methane, methanol and ammonia.
