Coinciding with National Skills Week, the NSW government has announced a $2.9 million grant to develop the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone’s workforce, one day after a new Powering Skills Organisation report says an additional 42,000 energy workers are needed to meet 2030 targets.
Transgrid has completed a three year build of the largest substation in the Southern Hemisphere, rubber-stamping grid reliability and the sharing of renewable energy across three states linked by its Project EnergyConnect.
Western Australian renewables infrastructure provider Pacific Energy has flicked the switch on a 26 MW hybrid energy power system that includes the first off-grid solar farm to supply power to a mine site in New South Wales.
Victorian-headquartered renewable energy developer ACEnergy has tapped China-based battery manufacturer CATL to supply 3 GWh of battery energy storage systems in Australia.
The New South Wales-based lithium ion battery company Energy Renaissance has gone into administration, just months after celebrating a decade in business.
A Sydney start-up working to get its liquid hydrogen-powered, long-range plane into commercial operation has landed $3 million in federal government funding to further develop the technology and showcase its full potential in real-world environments.
New South Wales grid operator Transgrid expects renewable energy to expand from 40% of the state’s electricity supply today to 90% in 2035, when it anticipates almost all coal-fired power plants will have closed.
Plans for a 141 MWdc solar farm to be developed alongside a 480 MWh battery energy storage system in central New South Wales have joined the queue for federal environmental approval.
UNSW researchers have investigated the impact of two types of soldering fluxes on TOPCon solar modules under damp heat conditions and have found that “no-clean” soldering fluxes can cause severe corrosion of front silver-aluminum contacts. The researchers have also found that denser metallisation structures and lower aluminium content improve corrosion resistance.
A breakthrough technology to “mine” silver from decommissioned solar panels has been mastered by Macquarie University researchers, and in partnership with Lithium Universe, will see the resource repurposed in electronics and solar panel industries.
