Solar energy storage: The decade of action has just begun

Spain´s second renewable energy boom

Since April 2019, the new decree regulating the conditions of energy self-consumption, (“autoconsumo”), has simplified substantially the administrative, technical and financial procedures making renewable energy accessible to the entire population.

The first sun2rope solar energy project finalised in a Kenyan Safari camp

To supply the eco resort with renewable energy, seven rows of 168 highly efficient polycrystalline photovoltaic modules, with a total capacity of 54 kWp are installed at this stage. Once the site is completely finalised and commissioned, the generated energy is intended to charge the batteries of the energy management and storage system sun2safe and inter alia for hot water treatment and for charging the sun2move e-bikes of the safari camp.

Domiciliation Service: Why should I incorporate in Switzerland?

Switzerland’s location in Western Europe and direct neighborhood to economically strong countries such as Germany, Austria, Italy and France offer great opportunities to enter the European market. Although the country is not a member of the European Union, it is perfectly suited for trading across the borders. Due to several bilateral agreements, there are almost no barriers to market accessibility and the country has become a major trading partner of the European Union.

Renewable energy is booming: The energy market revolution has just begun

Worldwide, there are several factors which are responsible for this expected development. On the one hand, there is Greta Thunberg and her #FridaysForFuture movement which made people around the globe rethink their original convictions. On the other hand, there is a substantial development in the sector of energy prices which allows companies and private households to receive clean energy instead of energy from fossil fuels in a much more competitive manner.

Reduced energy costs dispense with fossil fuels in Africa

Crude oil, natural gas and coal are the fossil fuels, which play vital roles in the African energy system and economies. The energy budget of the continent consists of over 80% fossil fuel usage. Between 2014 and 2016 only 18% of public finance went to renewable energies, over 60% to fossil fuels. While several years ago, there were a few plausible reasons for using fossil fuels in affluent African countries, arguments like the low costs have become void in the meantime.

New utility-scale PV plant planned for British Virgin Islands

Experienced in pioneering and realizing clean energy projects in the Caribbean meeco has successfully entered the final round in a PV energy tender for Tortola, located in the heart of the British Virgin Islands. A renowned investment group jointly with the Government has planned a utility-scale PV project in the Cox Heath area in the west of Tortola in order to shave-off energy costs and to initiate the energy transition as a part of its National Energy Transition Strategy.

Heavy solar investments in Saudi Arabia & the United Arab Emirates (UAE)

Recently, several newspapers and online magazines reported about ambitious targets both countries intend to follow up in the near future. The Renewable Energy Project Development Office in Saudi Arabia expects to allocate 2.2 GW of solar capacity this year. By 2030, the National Renewable Energy Program plans to install an overall of 58.7 GW of renewable energy in the country. These targets are part of the National Transformation 2020 Programme and the KSA Vision 2030. A first step will be the installation of a giant 2.6 GW clean energy project in the Makkah Region.
