Future clean energy investments stalled by outdated national electricity market
Clean Energy Investor Group research finds the national electricity market is an outdated design – built for an era of coal and gas – and hinders investment in modern large-scale energy projects like wind, solar, and batteries.
Pumped hydro energy storage potential equates to 2 trillion EV batteries: study
A new paper co-authored by Australian National University Professor Andrew Blakers discusses the potential for long-duration pumped hydro energy stations built on non-river locations, which, with batteries, can solve world’s energy storage needs.
Future energy systems must compensate rooftop solar generation fairly
The most important energy cost is not what a corporation pays to produce or generate it, but what a consumer pays to buy it. That’s why the delivered cost of rooftop solar and batteries – and the other benefits these technologies provide to the system – need to be factored in when making investment decisions.
