I didn't say it did.

Pierre the article has no referance to the UK..

But we can get in on the ripoff too. I get paid about £1 for each kWh i'm deemed to export to the local grid for my solar panels, against about 4p/kWh other generators get. (windfarm owners of course get much more).

[pierre oreilly] 09/1/2017 13:29

Well due to subsidies, wind power may well be cheaper for those who build one, they may even make a great profit from it. Likewise the landowner - plenty with a few windmills on their farm rake in a cool half a mill a year for doing nothing. Call me Dave's dad is one.

Of course, the subsidies don't grow on tress (if there are any left after theyve been felled for bio pellets to feed drax), it is of course the taxpayer, you and me (well at least me) who pay for it all and make windmills look oh so efficient and green and sensible.

Ballymena, Co Antrim

Green tyres for the Emerald Isle

Michelin loved the turbines we built them in Dundee so much they’ve come back for more...

This time we had to take them over the Irish sea, and they are now generating clean, green electricity onsite at Michelin’s tyre factory in Ballymena, Northern Ireland.

This is our first project in Northern Ireland and another part of our Merchant Wind Power scheme, building wind power on-site for UK industry; because you don’t need to transport electricity via the grid, emissions are cut and energy costs slashed. Good for the environment and UK industry!

Dig, by any measure at all, adding intermittent generation to a grid makes the system more inefficient, not more efficient. That is an unassailable fact. Matching power generated with power consumed constantly becomes more difficult when intermittent generation which can and does vary is added. You really need to read some less biased websites. Or do you just accept if the green site you are reading says it's more efficient, then you just believe it without any thought?

The addition of intermittent means storage is even more desperately required because adding too much (i.e. when the intermittent penetration level reaches a certain amount) the grid becomes impossible to operate and selectively shuts itself down to protect itself. And storage of any type isn't cheap. So basically, our, red's, opportunity arises because greens have more or less made grids on the point of being unmanageable.

I have been in Red for nearly a year and only today did I think of looking at related threads Oh deep joy one that's not cluttered with repeated and recycled news and has a small amount of heading material, thank you. TisT

[pierre oreilly] 09/1/2017 13:10

Yeah, seems to be in the right place at the right time. Even the derampers aren't able to find much negative to say about it, apart from guessing the price will drop for no reason.

-12bn, you obviously don't like red for some strange reason, which aim company do you see a better bet than this (and why of course)?

New York State is becoming a leading market for energy storage deployment and product development. New York has enacted a clean energy standard requiring that 50% of the State’s electricity will be from renewable energy by 2030 and it is leading the transformation of the electric grid to a cleaner more distributed and efficient system through the State’s renowned Reforming the Energy Vision (REV) Initiative. This, coupled with significant investments in an energy storage ecosystem, are driving the State’s leadership in energy storage activity across the board.

New York is home to a rich and diverse network of resources for energy storage technology and product development including world-class research institutions, dozens of university-based efforts, Brookhaven National Lab and the National Synchrotron Light Source II (with dedicated facilities for energy storage research), major corporate R&D centers and dozens of small and medium sized businesses working on a wide array of next generation storage technologies and applications. Coupled with our specialized and accessible facilities for battery prototyping, testing, commercialization and pilot manufacturing, New York offers an unmatched ecosystem for companies seeking to commercialize their storage innovations.

NY-BEST has worked with a variety of partners to develop and promote this energy storage ecosystem to the world. We are proud to highlight our valued partners in our “Capture New York’s Energy” Initiative which include:

by jove a canny investment this.

You have to feel sorry for poor 0.0000012iq. Poor bloke has nothing better to do in life than try and troll a perfectly good company, having lost it all on junk.

I will be announcing a 2 second silence for him later today.

[alchemy] 09/1/2017 11:25

Perhaps call for new balls?

[12bn] 09/1/2017 11:02

......and back to level,blue to green and my crystal ball says red soon.

[alchemy] 09/1/2017 11:02

Pipeline of a big number. That could be mis-leading, early days to know conversion rate to real orders, real deliveries, real invoices, real cash.

[gerd212] 09/1/2017 11:00

' had noticed that - but did not want to seem to deramp ;-)

[dogrunner11] 09/1/2017 10:56

Think they have enough to be getting on with already Booby, $263 million sales pipeline is plenty until we have recruited that 30 strong salesforce.

No doubt that pipeline is increasing, people are still viewing the product details daily as you can see by the YouTube videos, if we do a third of that sales pipeline this year everyone will be very happy indeed.

Leave those trade shows until next year IMO, use that manpower to generate income today.

Gerd, thanks, but doesn't look like RED are represented or featured there.

Actually only 2 days lost for the Indian market

[dlg3] 09/1/2017 10:36

this is why Scott has not rushed to market....

Sherwood Partners, the US insolvency adviser, has been engaged by Imergy, the vanadium flow battery firm, to market and sell the company’s assets. On July 18 Imergy entered into an Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors (ABC), a form of insolvency under Californian state law.

The collapse of Imergy had been widely anticipated. It follows the collapse of solar firm, SunEdison in the spring.

Imergy had been partnered with SunEdison on a huge Indian rural electrification programme where SunEdison had agreed to buy up to 1,000 of Imergy’s 30kw units over the next three years.

SunEdison was an equity investor in Imergy.

Sanjay Khazanchi
Chief Executive, Access to Electricity (India)
As chief executive of ITT’s India electricity project, Sanjay brings in a decade of experience in the space of renewable energy and off-grid rural electrification. He has in-depth knowledge of renewable energy technologies, and has developed strong partnerships with various players in this space.

Since the last few years, he has been providing consulting services to The Rockefeller Foundation’s ‘Smart Power’ rural electrification program in India. He coordinated and led this multi-partner program from its inception in 2009-10 till the program set up its Indian entity in 2015. Under his leadership, the program implemented a 30-village electrification project in the states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Under the same program, he recently concluded a scoping study for the Myanmar off-grid electrification market.

Prior to The Rockefeller Foundation, Sanjay worked for more than two decades in the corporate sector, mainly in the energy, power products and automotive industries. He has been the Executive Vice President with ACME Energy (Micro Turbine Division), CEO of Imergy Power Systems (US-based flow-battery company), President and CEO of Birla Power (power products company), and Regional Director (South Asia & Middle East) for Corning Incorporated.

Another year lost for the Indian market then.

2016 was the year solar panels finally became cheaper than fossil fuels. Just wait for 2017
December 27, 2016/in Solar Energy /by rishikap141

The renewable energy future will arrive when installing new solar panels is cheaper than a comparable investment in coal, natural gas or other options. If you ask the World Economic Forum (WEF), the day has arrived.

Solar and wind is now the same price or cheaper than new fossil fuel capacity in more than 30 countries, the WEF reported in December. As prices for solar and wind power continue their precipitous fall, two-thirds of all nations will reach the point known as “grid parity” within a few years, even without subsidies. “Renewable energy has reached a tipping point,” Michael Drexler, who leads infrastructure and development investing at the WEF, said in a statement. “It is not only a commercially viable option, but an outright compelling investment opportunity with long-term, stable, inflation-protected returns.”
