Porsche, Siemens Energy and partners advance climate-neutral eFuels development; Haru Oni pilot in Chile

Green Car Congress

Electrolyzers will use wind power to produce green hydrogen. The Haru Oni pilot project in Magallanes Province takes advantage of the excellent wind conditions in southern Chile to produce climate-neutral fuel with the aid of green wind power. Enel is a co-funder of the plant, with a focus on wind power and electrolysis.

DOE awarding $35M to 11 projects for hydrokinetic turbine development; ARPA-E SHARKS

Green Car Congress

Projects are encouraged to apply concurrent (as opposed to sequential) design methodologies: control co-design, co-design, and designing for operation and maintenance. These methodologies will significantly decrease the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of the final HKT design. Westergaard Solutions, Inc. University of Virginia.

Self-Generation Nation – Solar Sales Soar Amid Escalating Energy Costs

My Energi

Even prior to the catastrophic impact caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, prices were creeping up and unprecedented demand was beginning to put pressure on available supply. In 2021 alone, wholesale costs soared by upwards of 250%. But why solar? While popular, solar is just one solution. But fortunately, there’s another way.
