The sun rises underground

London Underground operator Transport for London has appointed SSE Solar Solutions to build, operator and maintain dedicated solar generation, as part of a pledge by to meet its full 1.16TWh energy use from renewable sources.

Electric Boilers Speed Up Europe’s Clean Energy Shift

Across Europe, high-voltage electrode boilers are quietly becoming a key part of the continent’s clean energy transition. In countries like Finland, these systems are being deployed to support decarbonization goals, reduce emissions from heating networks, and help stabilize power grids increasingly powered by variable renewable sources. As the EU advances its Green Deal and REPowerEU […] <p>The post Electric Boilers Speed Up Europe’s Clean Energy Shift first appeared on CCR-Mag.com.</p>

Battery Energy Storage Systems: Powering a Sustainable Future

As the world transitions towards cleaner energy solutions, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) have emerged as a game-changer in electricity management. These systems store surplus energy and release it when needed, helping stabilize power grids, optimize energy costs, and integrate renewable sources like solar and wind. By addressing energy intermittency and reducing dependency on fossil […] <p>The post Battery Energy Storage Systems: Powering a Sustainable Future first appeared on CCR-Mag.com.</p>

Tech Vision - Can Carbon Capture Save Our Planet 04082021

Prior to the industrial revolution, the earth’s atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration was chilling somewhere around 280 parts per million. If we want to keep our planet habitable, respectable climatologists all agree, we need to keep that number below 350 parts per million. In order to meet the International Panel on Climate Change’s target, removing 10 gigatonnes of C02 net from the atmosphere by the middle of this century, a vast industry needs to be built
