Wind power has become a fundamental pillar of the world’s energy mix, generating over 2,300 terawatt hours (TWh) of electricity each year as of 2023, or around 10 per cent of the world’s total supply.
Battling Revenue Erosion: Sharper SOC Accuracy Can Lift BESS Earnings by 11 %
For lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries—now powering more than 80 % of new BESS builds—SOC error margins of 10-20 % points are routine because LFP’s flat voltage profile makes precise measurements tricky.
A Foundation for Success: Navigating Bedrock & 180-mph Winds
Bahamas Solar & Renewables took a non-traditional path to build their first solar site by bypassing the use of an EPC. Instead, they hired local contractors to execute their civil and electrical work. This initiative ensured economic support for the local community.
Inspection of critical infrastructure using intelligent drones
A research group at the University of Klagenfurt has designed a real-time capable drone based on object-relative navigation using artificial intelligence. Also on board: a USB3 Vision industrial camera from the uEye LE family from IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH.
