Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) announced that it has contracted with subsidiaries of NextEra Energy Resources and Abengoa Solar for delivery of a total of 500 megawatts (MW) of clean solar power. The agreements are among several solar deals recently signed by the utility with independent developers for a total of 830 MW. NextEra’s proposed [...] The Solar Technology Acceleration Center (SolarTAC) is an integrated, world-class test facility where the solar industry can research, test, validate, and demonstrate solar technologies. SolarTAC’s mission is to increase the efficiency of solar energy products and rapidly deploy them to the commercial market. Located near Denver International Airport in Aurora, Colorado, the 74-acre SolarTAC site [...] Abengoa Solar and E.ON Climate & Renewables have today formed a partnership that will see them jointly own and operate two 50MW Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) plants. The plants which are already under construction are located in Ecija (Seville), Southern Spain, one of the best areas in Europe in terms of solar radiation. The 50:50 partnership [...] Baxi is part of the Baxi Group, one of Europe’s leading heating and home comfort specialists. The company has developed a Micro-CHP unit, the Baxi Ecogen, a free Piston Stirling engine which will generate useable electricity as well as heat for the home. Baxi Ecogen is a microgeneration unit that generates 1kW of electricity per hour that [...] Abengoa Solar announces the signing of a power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) to supply the electricity generated by the new solar plant “Mojave Solar.” The project will generate 250 megawatts (MW) of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) and is to be located in an unincorporated area of San Bernardino County, between Barstow [...] Abengoa The event was attended by the President of the Regional Government of Andalusia, José Antonio Griñán Martínez, and the Minister of Innovation, Development and Science, Cristina Garmendia. The new plant can produce enough clean energy to supply 10,000 homes, preventing the emission of some 12,000 tonnes of CO2 every year. Their Majesties, Don Juan Carlos [...] Abengoa Solar has announced that they intend to build the first Solar Thermal installation integrated with a Coal Plant owned by Xcel Energy. The demonstration project is intended to increase power plant efficiency while lowering CO2 emissions. This is the first time that solar energy will be used to increase the efficiency and lower the [...] Munich, Germany, Abengoa Solar recently signed an agreement to join as a founder member the Desertec Industrial Initiative, a project born under the auspices of the Club of Rome and other institutions. This project seeks to develop renewable energy production in the desert regions of Northern Africa and the Middle East for both local use [...] |
