To cut U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in half within a decade, the Biden administration’s goal, the U.S. is going to need a lot more solar and wind power generation, and lots of cheap energy storage.

North Carolina’s predominant utility is backing away from a long-held plan to double the size of its largest pumped storage ...

Alaska is warming faster than any other US state, according to the US Department of Agriculture. The state has unique energy needs due to its size, diverse landscape, and remote, rural nature, and ...

There is much talk these days about energy storage. As more and more wind and solar power enters the electrical grid, there is an increasing need to be able to store excess energy and have it ...

Pumped hydro storage is one of the oldest grid storage technologies, and one of the most widely deployed, too. The concept is simple – use excess energy to pump a lot of water up high, then run it ...

The U.S. based researchers said linking solar with hydro in a full hybrid system configuration may result – at best – in the deployment of 7,593 GW for an estimated annual power generation of 10,616 ...

Doosan Enerbility has awarded ANDRITZ a contract to design and supply key equipment for the Yeongdong pumped storage power ...

The demand for reliable, renewable energy is growing across Southeast Asia as nations work to address rapid urbanization, industrialization, and climate concerns. In this context, pumped storage ...

Looking over the edge of a Columbia River Gorge slope, you can see the river more than 2,000 feet below. A former aluminum smelter sits to the left at the bottom of the cliff. Wind turbines spin ...
