An Industrial Microgrid in Costa Rica Offers Cost-Reduction and a Path to Carbon-Neutrality
A hybrid energy system at a manufacturing facility not only helps reduce energy costs and emissions, but also has far-reaching carbon reduction benefits, and positions Costa Rica as a leader in the fight against climate change.
Renewable Energy Grid Integration Week
The Renewable Energy Grid Integration Week from 27 Sept – 1 Oct, 2021 comprises three high-quality conferences on grid integration of renewable energies and attracts participants from all over the world. In 2021, the 5th E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium, 11th Solar & Storage Integration Workshop and the 20th Wind Integration Workshop will be held virtually with an on-site option in Germany.
New UL capability advances design of utility-scale hybrid power systems that provide clean, stable electricity
HOMER Energy by UL’s new front-of-the-meter modeling software combined with expert UL analysis helps energy developers evaluate the profitability of utility-scale solar, wind and storage systems
5th International Hybrid Power Systems Virtual Workshop
The Virtual 5th Hybrid Power Systems Workshop that is held virtually from 18-19 May 2021 has a focus on Hybrid Power Systems, Micro-Grids and Island Power Systems. Participants will benefit from numerous presentations on international case studies and lessons learned.
Webinar: Energy storage applications for C&I in the Americas
In these recent years, microgrids systems have emerged to supply sustainable energy. In this webinar, Sinexcel and Elum Energy will present the latest control solutions for solar panels combined with battery energy storage (BESS). HOMER Energy, a company that produces microgrid modeling software to optimize and simplify microgrids, will bring his point of view by moderating this session.
Message from the Founder: Thoughts on the Texas Energy Crisis
This month’s newsletter features a close look by the founder of HOMER Energy by UL at contributing causes of the Texas Energy Crisis, as well as a news story on the February event, and an article about a promising financial innovation for mini-grids in Africa. And please join us for our upcoming webinar: “Microgrids and Hybrid Power Everywhere: Optimizing the New Energy Wave” on March 25 and the Middle East and Africa Renewables Summit this week where I will moderate a panel discussion on March 10.
Results-Based Financing Models Provide Path Forward for Mini-Grids in Africa
Mini-grids could provide energy access to the approximately 580 million people without power in Africa while fulfilling decarbonization and climate goals. However, financing these projects often proves challenging. In order to secure funding, project developers are increasingly looking to results-based models.
Webinar – Microgrids and Hybrid Power Everywhere: Optimizing the New Energy Wave
The landscape of decarbonization and the clean energy transition is changing rapidly and speeding the adoption of more complex hybrid power systems. Join HOMER software creator Peter Lilienthal as he discusses key components of hybrid power systems, design considerations, and why techno-economic feasibility and decision analysis are critical for microgrid and hybrid power system design.
