Over 500 solar panels are being installed on the roof of one of the University of Huddersfield's largest buildings as part of a major carbon reduction scheme across the institution, in response to the climate emergency.

To increase the performance of solar panels, a team of researchers has created a bifacial, or two-sided, tandem solar cell, built by bringing together the best of the perovskite and silicon technologies.

Electricity generation from renewable energies is growing on a daily basis and, to integrate their variable nature, energy storage systems are growing in parallel. IDTechEx have investigated the evolution of the energy storage market, forecasting its growth in the next ten years, in the new report: "Batteries for Stationary Energy Storage 2021-2031".

The Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility has been connected to the power grid and began operation. At 300 megawatts/1,200 megawatt-hours, the lithium-ion battery storage system, located on-site at Vistra's Moss Landing Power Plant in Monterey County, California, will be the largest of its kind in the world.

The UK has the largest wind farm market, beating other world leaders such as Germany and China - so much so, that 20% of the UK's energy comes from wind turbines. However, there is currently an even bigger drive to increase wind energy use in Europe.

VALID is a 3-year project designed to develop a Hybrid Testing Platform for accelerated testing with methodologies by combining the virtual and physical environment, reducing cost in the product developing process, tackling scaling challenges and lowering uncertainties once fully demonstrated in the ocean.

Department of Transport Abu Dhabi (DoT) has rolled out 175 e-paper bus stop displays across key locations and city landmarks.

Wednesday 13 January 2021 - This webinar, presented by IDTechEx Chairman Dr Peter Harrop, explains how, of the trillions of dollars being spent on smart cities, the advanced materials part is rising to hundreds of billions yearly.

A team of researchers from has created a novel film that is very effective in evaporating sweat from our skin to keep us cool and comfortable when we exercise, and the moisture harvested from human sweat can be used to power wearable electronic devices such as watches, fitness trackers, and more.

IDTechEx currently have a number of energy harvesting related webinars available to watch on-demand. These include presentations on triboelectrics, self-powered electronics, photovoltaics, hydrogen economy and smart cities.

GE Renewable Energy has announced a 1050 MW order for Pattern Energy's Western Spirit Wind farms in New Mexico. The 377-turbine order will power the equivalent of more than 590,000 homes.
