Renewable Energy
Renewable energy (also called green energy) is energy made from renewable resource, renewable natural resources that are replenished on a human lifetime, human timescale. The most widely used renewable energy types are solar energy, wind power, and hydropower. Bioenergy and geothermal power are also significant in some countries. Some also consider Nuclear power proposed as renewable energy, nuclear power a renewable power source, although this is controversial, as nuclear energy requires mining uranium, a nonrenewable resource. Renewable energy installations can be large or small and are suited for both urban and rural areas. Renewable energy is often deployed together with further electrification. This has several benefits: electricity can heat pump, move heat and Electric vehicle, vehicles efficiently and is clean at the point of consumption. Variable renewable energy sources are those that have a fluctuating nature, such as wind power and solar power. In contrast, ''contro ...

Gigawatt
The watt (symbol: W) is the unit of power or radiant flux in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 1 joule per second or 1 kg⋅m2⋅s−3. It is used to quantify the rate of energy transfer. The watt is named in honor of James Watt (1736–1819), an 18th-century Scottish inventor, mechanical engineer, and chemist who improved the Newcomen engine with his own steam engine in 1776, which became fundamental for the Industrial Revolution. Overview When an object's velocity is held constant at one meter per second against a constant opposing force of one newton, the rate at which work is done is one watt. \mathrm. In terms of electromagnetism, one watt is the rate at which electrical work is performed when a current of one ampere (A) flows across an electrical potential difference of one volt (V), meaning the watt is equivalent to the volt-ampere (the latter unit, however, is used for a different quantity from the real power of an electrical circuit). ...

Asian Renewable Energy Hub
The Australian Renewable Energy Hub, formerly Asian Renewable Energy Hub (AREH), is a proposal to create one of the world's largest renewable energy plants in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. After several revisions of the original project concept, in January 2023 the Government of Western Australia approved a revised set of seven projects, totalling 26 GW of wind and solar capacity that would be used to produce green hydrogen, to be exported by converting it to ammonia. History The Asian Renewable Energy Hub was first proposed in 2014, with plans for the project concept changing several times since then. The project initially aimed to supply power via an undersea power cable (to Indonesia and perhaps on to Singapore) with a capacity of 15 gigawatts (GW), using four cables, each long. However, having explored the potential of exporting green hydrogen via the manufacture of ammonia, it was able to aim for an extra 11GW. The Government of Western Australia gave enviro ...

Western Green Energy Hub
The Western Green Energy Hub is a proposed renewable energy hub for the southern coast of Western Australia, Australia consisting of 70GW of wind and solar capacity. It is estimated to cost $100 billion AUD in construction and be one of the largest energy infrastructure projects in the world. Design It is proposed to be built on a site area of 15,000 km2 in Dundas Shire, South-East Western Australia, on traditional Mirning land on the Great Australian Bight near Eucla, extending towards the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, taking advantage of the area's immense wind and solar energy potential with optimal diurnal profile and an estimated 70% utilisation factor. The Western Green Energy Hub will produce 3.5 million tonnes of green hydrogen Green hydrogen (GH2 or GH2) is hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of water, using renewable electricity. Production of green hydrogen causes significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions than production of grey hydrogen, which is derived ...

Australia-Asia Power Link
The Australia–Asia Power Link (AAPowerLink) is a proposed electricity infrastructure project that is planned to include the world's largest solar plant, the world's largest battery, and the world's longest submarine power cable. Initial plans forecast that a new solar farm in the Northern Territory of Australia would produce up to 20 gigawatts of electricity, most of which would be exported to Singapore, and at a later point Indonesia, by a 3 GW HVDC transmission line. A large battery would store energy in order to level energy availability as sunlight varies throughout the day. AAPowerLink has been developed by an Australian company Sun Cable, initially backed by Andrew Forrest and Mike Cannon-Brookes. It was projected to begin construction in mid-2023, with operation starting in early 2026 and completion by late 2027, and estimated to add 8 billion to the economy of the Northern Territory. The project collapsed in January 2023, after Sun Cable was placed into volunta ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Grand Inga Dam
The Grand Inga Dam (French: ''Barrage du Grand Inga'') is a series of seven proposed hydroelectric power stations at the site of the Inga Falls, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. If built as planned, the 40–70 GW project would be the largest power station in the world. Location The project would be located across the Congo River, approximately , upstream of where the river empties into the Atlantic Ocean. This is approximately , southwest of Kinshasa, the capital and largest city of the DR Congo. This is the site of the Inga Falls and is the location of the 351 MW Inga 1 Hydropower Station and the 1,424 MW Inga 2 Hydropower Station, approximately upstream of Matadi, the country's largest port. Overview The project would involve building a dam across the south of the Bundi River valley where it meets the Congo, then diverting the Congo from above the waterfalls into the north of the valley to create a huge reservoir. It is anticipated that the vertical drop, th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
