A solar project in Nevada by McCarthy. On August 4 Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo sent a letter to sec. from interior Doug Burgum who asks for guidance on changes in the development of solar energy in federal countries, according to E&E News. The Governor said that the interior memo department announced that the secretary himself would revise from solar and wind rental contracts, transit rights, construction and operation plans, subsidies, consultations and biological opinions about public countries, frozen solar projects already deep in the development frame. “The memo has not only stopped developing solar energy on federal countries in Nevada,…
The entire Eland Solar + storage project, which has been developed by Arevon Energy, is now fully operational. The two-phase moose project, located near Mojave in Kern County, is one of the largest solar storage facilities in the country, with a total capital costs of more than $ 2 billion. Eland consists of 758 MWDC Solar accompanied by 300 MW/1,200 MWh of energy storage. Eland 1 reached a commercial operation at the end of 2024 and moose 2 recently started with full operation – together the two phases 1.36 million solar panels and 172 Lithium -iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. “We…
The Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has launched an inspection program from 2025 aimed at energy consumption on 41 large polys silicon producers to curb the output. August 8, 2025 Vincent Shaw and Valerie Thompson The Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (Miit) has launched an inspection program from 2025 that focuses on energy consumption in 41 large polysilicon producers. The agency expects that the checks, which must be submitted on 30 September, will curb the output by sharpening the standards for energy consumption and significantly influence production capacity and supply. China Southern Glass (CSG) said…
The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) says that by 2050 US hydrogen production will increase by around 80%, mainly of natural gas with minimal use of electrolyzer, while important players in industry promote large -scale green hydrogen projects and expand the support of hydrogen vehicles on world markets. August 8, 2025 Sergio Matalucci The eiaAn agency of the US government said that in most scenarios for the American hydrogen market, production will rise by around 80% in 2050 compared to 2024, with the most hydrogen (Heper) coming from natural gas via steam methaan reform (SMR). “In most cases we project…
A research team of Temple University in Philadelphia analyzed the worldwide synergies and considerations from land conversion to agrivoltaisches and other multi-use solar energy landscapes worldwide. They discovered that co-located solar systems should be specifically adjusted to offer optimum performance and to minimize negative effects.
