Energy storage used to be the cute companion nipping at the heels of solar and wind. Now it’s increasingly a main attraction, reshaping both the power grid and the automotive industry, and 2024 was easily the sector’s biggest year yet. The oft-cited constraints on batteries — manufacturing bottlenecks, mineral scarcity, fire risk — simply didn’t hinder battery […]

On Wednesday, New South Wales achieved a new milestone, reaching its maximum instantaneous wind output of 2,315.0 MW, at 6.30 pm (AEST), contributing nicely to the evening peak demand. The new peak surpasses the previous record of 2,299.0 MW, set on July 20 at 4.30pm. A year earlier, this figure stood at 1,964 MW. This

National Grid had proposed a technology-neutral ​“electrification rate” that would have offered a discounted rate to high-volume electric consumers, whether the power demand was coming from an efficient heat pump, inefficient electric resistance heat, or even a pool heater. Environmental activists, advocates for low-income households, a solar industry group, the state energy department, and the state attorney general all

Switching to heat pumps is one of the most energy-efficient and cost-effective ways to reduce the climate impact of buildings, which account for more than a third of U.S. carbon emissions. It can also save lives by cleaning the air we breathe, according to new research by Rewiring America, a nonprofit that advocates for home electrification. The

California has long led the way on electric vehicles, but another Western state is challenging the Golden State’s top spot. Between July and September, nearly 25 percent of the vehicles registered in Colorado were electric or plug-in hybrids. In California, that figure was just over 24 percent. It’s not enough to crown Colorado the new undisputed

She said that such projects have been a ​“bright spot for climate action” for New York state in particular, which is falling far behind on its goals for installing utility-scale solar, wind, and battery storage projects. In 2024, New York met its 6 GW goal for distributed solar capacity a year ahead of schedule, driven largely by
