Clean energy is accelerating, and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is a major driver. It introduced the largest package of federal clean energy tax incentives in U.S. history, with significant implications for developers, investors, and manufacturers across the sector. But taking advantage of these incentives isn’t automatic. The credits come with detailed rules around eligibility, […]

The clean energy transition is progressing rapidly, but this extraordinary transformation is not without its challenges: outdated power grids and a lack of balancing technology means that we are wasting vast amounts of clean energy and resources through curtailment. To address this, we need an integrated approach combining grid upgrades alongside the greater deployment of balancing […]

The power industry supply chain is facing unprecedented strain as utilities race to upgrade aging infrastructure against a backdrop of lengthening lead times and increasing project complexity. As one Midwestern utility executive recently noted, “Transformers that once arrived in three months now take up to two years to source,” highlighting a crisis that extends far […]

Since the industrial revolution, manufacturers and other large industrial operations have often been labeled as environmental polluters. However, this traditional viewpoint is rapidly transforming thanks to the push toward sustainability. Today, there is an undeniable shift. Manufacturers and large facilities alike are seeking to significantly reduce their carbon emissions to align with global and national […]

Duke Energy has signed a sweeping partnership with GE Vernova for the supply of advanced gas turbines and associated equipment—potentially securing up to 11 of GE Vernova’s flagship 7HA units to advance specific projects in line with the utility’s integrated resource plans (IRPs). Duke Energy on April 24 said the “arrangement” would help the company […]

As the global energy landscape undergoes unprecedented transformation, Hitachi Energy stands at the forefront of technologies driving the transition toward a more sustainable and flexible power system. In this exclusive interview with POWER, Massimo Danieli, managing director for Hitachi Energy’s Grid Automation business unit, offers valuable insights into how electrification, renewable integration, and digital solutions […]

The flexibility market is gaining ground within the electricity industry. The reasons for this are twofold. Firstly, there is more and more electricity generated from volatile renewable sources of energy that has to be integrated into the grid. And secondly, the increasing digitalization of power grids means that even decentralized market players can use flexibility […]

EWE aims to store hydrogen in Huntorf in the Wesermarsch region starting in 2027 The energy service provider EWE is driving forward the conversion of its gas storage site in Wesermarsch for the storage of hydrogen. NEUMAN & ESSER will supply EWE with two four-crank, horizontal piston compressors size 320 as part of the major […]

At Deep Fission, we’re taking a radically different approach to nuclear energy: smaller, safer, faster to deploy—and located a mile underground. By placing reactors deep beneath the Earth’s surface, we use the natural containment of billions of tons of bedrock to dramatically improve safety and cut costs. COMMENTARY Liz Muller, CEO and co-founder of Deep […]

PJM, the largest grid operator in North America, has launched a multiyear partnership with tech giant Google and its Alphabet X moonshot Tapestry to streamline PJM’s grid interconnection process using artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The companies said the effort could significantly improve planning and decision-making as grid pressures intensify. Under the initiative, announced on April […]
