On the weekly clean power news and views, we bring you the latest cleantech and clean energy news, thought leaders, and innovators. Our motto is ‘Speeding the Energy Transition!’
This week John Weaver and I discuss,
1. The Two Falcon Heavy rockets that landed within moments of each other this week.
2. Sunnova's plan seeking to develop ‘electricity micro-utilities’ in California for 500-2,000 customer communities - ~7.7 kWdc+10-20 kWh batteries per house, neighborhood battery of 2 MWh+300 kW solar
3. The visualization of a house with solar plus a car charger
4. Rhode Island launched an RFP for 1 GW of offshore wind - and this one facility could meet 50% of the state's electricity demand - 1 GW of wind will generate ~3.9 TWh/year at a 45% capacity factor.
5. The demand for ESS Inc's - iron flow battery now driving the business plan as manufacturing capacity finds it tougher to keep up
6. The bus charging station (the largest one in the nation) is turning into a community energy resource
7. A cool looking “solar chair” used for a pavilion at an event - modules a colored for good visual representation (look like dragon scale modules)
