Explained: Can Higher Energy Density Batteries Power Air Travel ? Updated On Fri, Apr 28th, 2023 by Saurenergy One of the world’s largest battery manufacturers, CATL, has recently unveiled its new condensed battery boasting an impressive 500 Wh/kg energy density. The significance of this can be gauged from the fact that the firm teased the idea of electrifying passenger aircraft with its new battery revelation. And yes, it’s not yet another ‘demonstrator’ with […] Read more
How To Use Peak Shaving To Save On Electricity Costs Updated On Wed, Apr 26th, 2023 by Saurenergy Background A “capacity tariff” is going to be introduced on residential properties where you will have to pay for the electrical capacity that you need. This tariff is expected in many European countries, such as Belgium and Italy, and may increase electricity bills for many families. 1.What is a “Capacity Tariff”? For consumers, including businesses […] Read more
Why Is The Building Sector Shunning Glasses & Adopting Solar? Know The Benefits Updated On Wed, Apr 26th, 2023 by Saurenergy Several industrial high-rise buildings in the last decade have undergone a construction-related transition. Against the earlier popular and conventional practice of using concrete surfaces, many modern buildings now flaunt flashing glass shields. Not only did the new practice help in making those buildings more eye-catching, but it also aided in increasing the energy efficiency […] Read more
The Top 5: Risks to Renewable Energy from Climate Change Updated On Tue, Apr 25th, 2023 by Saurenergy Climate change has already started posing real-world challenges. It is not just affecting adversely the developmental plans but is also disrupting the livelihoods of a considerable section of the human population in the regions prone to climate change disasters such as floods, droughts, sea level rise, etc. Renewable energy (RE) has given a push developmental […] Read more
This Tribal Hamlet In Kerala Gets Electricity After 74 Years from Micro-Hybrids Updated On Mon, Apr 24th, 2023 by Saurenergy For 75 years, a hamlet in Attapaddi, Kerala was shrouded in the dark, deprived of the basic human need- electricity. Forest fires, wild animal attacks and remoteness were some of the factors that prevented the establishment of renewable energy projects here. The tribal population, which dominates the hamlet, had been extremely possessive of its culture […] Read more
The Top 5: Reasons Why Public Transport Offers the Fastest Decarbonisation Solution for Transportation Updated On Mon, Apr 24th, 2023 by Saurenergy Owing to the increasing private vehicle fleet, Indian cities are suffering from the twin problems of road congestion and emissions. While the story of vehicular emissions is well known, the situation isn’t good in terms of traffic congestion either. For instance, the optimal travel time for a 10 km trip is around 16 and a […] Read more
Estimating Subhourly Clipping Losses of Inverter and Plant From Performance Ratio Trends Updated On Thu, Apr 20th, 2023 by Saurenergy ABSTRACT Most photovoltaic system production simulations are conventionally run using hourly weather datasets of satellite. Hourly simulations are sufficiently accurate to predict the majority of long-term system behaviour but cannot resolve high-frequency effects like inverter clipping caused by short-duration irradiance variability. Direct modelling of this sub hourly clipping error is only possible for the few […] Read more
End of Nuclear Energy in Germany: What are the Fallouts? Updated On Wed, Apr 19th, 2023 by Saurenergy Germany recently announced the shutting down of its last nuclear power plants. From supplying nuclear power plant-based electricity to the grid for the first time, at Kahl in Bavaria in 1961, to now shutting down the last three in April 2023, Nuclear energy polarized people’s opinions and remained a point of debate for decades in […] Read more
Beyond Batteries: Hydrogen Combustion Engine, A Viable Alternative for Clean Mobility Updated On Mon, Apr 17th, 2023 by Saurenergy Electric vehicles running on battery-powered electricity are not just a future concept anymore. The new electric vehicle sales surpassed the 10 million mark worldwide in 2022 and it seems likely that sooner or later EVs will replace the conventional ICE mobility options. However, bottlenecks impeding EV growth and the technological advancements in using hydrogen as […] Read more
