Author: PPD Team Date: December 31, 2024 A China-based firm has successfully ignited the world’s first 30MW-class pure hydrogen gas turbine, called Jupiter I. Developed by Mingyang Group and several research teams, the turbine offers a significant solution for renewable energy storage by converting hydrogen back into electricity during peak hours. The turbine addresses the challenge of renewable energy waste during off-peak hours, converting excess electricity into hydrogen for storage. This “power-to-hydrogen-back-to-power” method results in…
Author: PPD Team Date: January 31, 2025 Germany, Europe’s largest wind power producer, is experiencing its most prolonged period of below-average wind power generation since early 2021, as reported by Reuters. This shortfall is attributed to low wind speeds since October 2024. Wind power, which is Germany’s primary electricity source, typically peaks in winter when wind speeds are highest.
