Denmark has seen large growth spurts when it comes to their solar energy capacity. Rising especially rapidly in 2012 and then again recently, the country is at a total photovoltaic capacity of 2188 MWh at the end of 2022. In this article, we present three companies that develop solar parks in Denmark, which are an […]
In Norway, wind energy makes up about 10% of the electricity production capacity. Moreover, the country has the goal to become one of the first countries in Europe to develop grid-scale floating offshore wind farms. With Norway‘s high electricity production in mind, it comes as no surprise that developing onshore or offshore wind farms in […]
The State’s Climate Leadership and Protection Act outline plans in January 2019 for 70% of the state’s electricity to be supplied by renewable energy projects by 2040. In order to achieve this target, Kathy Hochul the state’s governor announced the tender of 22 green energy projects which will require an investment of $2.7bn. The future […]
Although the United Kingdom is not known for sunny weather, solar power is still a relevant part of the country‘s renewable energy sources. There are several solar developers in the UK that drive the energy transition further forward. In June 2021, the installed capacity of solar energy was 13.5GW. In this article, we present three […]
Wind development in the United Kingdom has been rising significantly: The generation of electricity from wind power has grown by 715% from 2009 to 2020. This has caused the country’s turnover from wind energy to be at almost £6 billion in 2019. Wind power generates about 25% of the needed electricity in the UK which makes it […]
Whilst certain areas in Scandinavia were amongst the first to embrace the transition to green energy, several countries are still experiencing high rates of growth. An example of this is Finland which has set new records of green energy growth in recent years. A significant factor behind the growth in Scandinavia was the increased Government […]
California is a state that possesses great renewable potential due to the vast hours of sunlight the region receives each year. A landmark achievement was met in May 2022, when the area produced enough green energy to meet 103% of consumer demand. Despite the number of solar assets located in the state, a significant investment […]
As per the Baker-Polito Administration’s Clean Energy and Climate Plan for 2050, the state has to reach net zero by 2050. A key part of this transition will be large-scale renewable energy projects and PPA contracts. In August 2022, Governor Charlie Baker announced a renewable energy bill that aims to develop 5.6GW of green assets […]
Power purchase agreements (PPA) have become increasingly important for renewable energy developers and customers to guarantee the security of income and electricity. One of the most popular forms of PPAs is corporate, which offers a long-term energy solution to major organizations and allows them to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Numerous large-scale PPAs have been […]
Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Denmark countries are among the leading European developers of renewable energy. In 2018, Norway and Sweden accounted for over half of the PPAs agreed upon in Europe. In recent years, the growth in Scandinavian countries is considered mature compared to the rapid growth seen in Portugal, Spain, and France. One Scandinavian […]
