MOL forges offshore wind and green hydrogen partnership

Japanese shipowner Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) has partnered up with EDF Renewables, a subsidiary of France’s utility EDF, to cooperate on the development of the offshore wind sector and to pursue opportunities in green hydrogen. MOL established its offshore wind business in 2021 and has since been growing its marine renewables footprint with a number

New York releases offshore wind solicitation for clean energy development

New York has released its third competitive offshore wind solicitation, seeking enough clean, renewable energy to power at least 1.5m homes in the state. The procurement, administered by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), includes the first phase of a $500m investment in offshore wind ports, manufacturing, and supply chain infrastructure

India plans to operate solar, wind power with green hydrogen RTC power source

The Indian government is planning pilot projects to operate solar and wind power bundled with power from green hydrogen. The Union power ministry is expected to assign state-run NTPC Ltd and Coal India Ltd to run the pilots. The planned pilots will be cleaner than the previous RTC projects as thermal power will be replaced

EU requires 400 GW of energy from renewable sources to reach netzero

The European Union’s plan to hit carbon neutrality by 2050 and support a 1.5°C limit on average global warming will require the continent to install 400 gigawatts of new solar and wind per year between 2025 and 2035. It has to ramp up hydrogen production, and develop viable carbon capture technology, according to a study

Scaling up green energy production helps India reduce dependence on coal

Record green energy output reduced Indian dependence on coal in May, despite 23.5% growth in power demand, contributing to a rise in utilities’ coal inventories. According to government data released recently the share of renewable energy sources in power output rose to 14.1% in May from 10.2% in April. Coal made room for it, dropping

The simple technology that will bring an end to fossil fuels

The world is turning its back on fossil fuels to save the planet and, in recent times, to hurt Putin and his horrific plans. But, there is a massive problem. Renewable energy, like solar and wind are erratic, and the mega batteries we use to overcome this issue are costly and massively impact the environment.
