• Antaisolar solar racking selected for 50MW distributed solar plants in Singapore
    Project News July 20, 2021 Antaisolar solar racking selected for 50MW distributed solar plants in Singapore
    Recently , China's National Energy Administration (NEA) had released the new policy that its provincial offices should nominate counties where a trial program to push blanket rooftop solar can be carried out, in order to move the dial on small scale PV in the nation. According to new NEA policy, The state entity wants selected counties to have at least 20% of all residential roofs equipped with solar energy, as well as at least 30% of commercial and industrial structures; 40% of non-governmental public buildings, such as hospitals and schools; and half of the roofs on the national estate. The new policy has unleashed a wave of distributed solar in the domestic market. On July 16th, the Shaanxi Distributed PV Seminar hosted by PV men and PV Box was held at the in Xi'an. Nearly 400 people from design institutes, investors, distributors, EPC, PV equipment suppliers, and financial institutions gathered together to discuss the dual-carbon goals and the huge opportunities for distributed photovoltaic development under the promotion of the entire county. Antaisolar participated in this event to share the case study of its 50MW HDB distributed solar plants in Singapore, which is an example for mandate solar on roofs in pilot countries under NEA new policy. The project was for the first three tenders, which covering 300+ HDB blocks with totally capacity of 50MW and all completed. Confronted with 300+ diversified rooftop, and strict design requirements such as reserved passageway, non-destruction for roof and certified by a third-party design agency, it requires significant expertise to conduct on site survey and design ability for solar racking suppliers. Antaisolar finally provided only five solar racking design templates for all 300+ different rooftop based on strong designing capability and rich experience for distributed solar plants. Upon completion, it’s equivalent to powering 12500 four-room flats with solar energy, and estimated to reduce carbon emissions by 30000 tonnes per year, said HDB. The roof construction environment of distributed solar plants are more complicated and usually need high requirements from government. Solar racking is the most complex and critical part of the entire implementation process. It plays an important role in reducing the difficulty of construction and providing key calculation data for investors, EPCs, and Design Institutes. Under the plan for achieving carbon-neutral across the world, Antaisolar will focus on its brand positioning- Leading supplier of the whole industry chain in PV mounting system, and strive to provide efficient and innovative solar racking solutions for global clients as part of the effort to develop greener and more sustainable towns, while reducing carbon footprint.

  • ‘A step in the right direction’: EU plans to increase 2030 renewables target to 40%
    Industry News July 15, 2021 ‘A step in the right direction’: EU plans to increase 2030 renewables target to 40%
    Sources:www.pv-tech.org European Union (EU) countries may need to ramp up renewables deployment in the next decade to meet new proposed targets aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions across the bloc. As part of its wide-reaching ‘Fit for 55’ climate plan unveiled today (14 July), the EU’s executive branch, the European Commission, has updated its Renewable Energy Directive to increase the overall binding target from 32% to a new level of 40% renewables in the bloc’s energy mix by 2030. The change aims to make the energy system cleaner and more efficient by fostering renewables-based electrification and, in sectors such as industry and transport, it will promote the uptake of renewable fuels, such as green hydrogen. To increase the attractiveness of renewables projects for private investors, the Commission proposes measures to make permitting more efficient and to promote direct contracts between producers and consumers. These measures form part of a dozen draft proposals aimed at driving down greenhouse gas emissions across the EU by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels, putting it in on a path to becoming carbon neutral by 2050. The ‘Fit for 55’ proposals remove barriers and add incentives so that Europe can move faster towards net zero, said European Commissioner for Energy Kadri Simson. “To achieve climate neutrality by 2050, we need to turn the renewables evolution into a revolution and make sure no energy is wasted along the way,” she said. The increased renewables goal will disappoint SolarPower Europe, which is calling for the EU to target 45% clean energy by 2030. Nevertheless, analysis from the trade association predicts that the 40% ambition will require a total of 660GW of solar PV deployed in Europe by 2030, up from the approximately 137GW installed as of year-end 2020. A statement from the European Renewable Energies Federation said it regrets that a higher renewables target has not been proposed, while campaign group ClientEarth said the ‘Fit for 55’ package has shied away from action at the scale required. “The Commission’s proposed renewables target is a step in the right direction but is clearly insufficient to put Europe on track for climate neutrality by 2050,” said ClientEarth energy lawyer Guillermo Ramo. Other Commission proposals include an objective to reach at least a 49% renewable share in the energy used in buildings across the EU by 2030, while tighter vehicle emission limits would effectively end new petrol and diesel car sales by 2035. Additionally, new emissions trading for transport and for fuels used in buildings would provide a price signal to reduce energy use and increase the share of renewable energy in electricity production. Despite the series of eye-catching announcements, the EU’s 55% target for net cuts to emissions by 2030 “falls well short” of what science requires to restrict global heating to 1.5°C, according to Greenpeace. “Celebrating these policies is like a high jumper claiming a meda...

  • Antaisolar supplied 30MW solar tracker for utility scale solar farm
    Project News July 01, 2021 Antaisolar supplied 30MW solar tracker for utility scale solar farm
    With the total installed capacity of 100MW, located in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, China, the solar power plant was successfully gird connected at the end of June in 2021, in which 30MW utilized Antaisolar’s Tai-universal solar tracker. What are the challenges presented by both climate and terrain Adjacent to the Tengger Desert, there are many days of high wind speed and dusty weather throughout the year, also extremely low temperature in winter and large temperature difference between day and night. The landscape of this region is soft soil with undulating hills, forming a complex terrain. Why Tai-universal was chosen for this project? In order to achieve optimal BOS and LCOE, and based on on-site survey, Antaisolar provided Tai-universal, the single-aixs 2P solar tracker for best match for bifacial modules, which can resist gust wind speed up to 45m/s. In the tuyere area, a redundant damping system was designed to further enhance the wind resistance of the project. As for the foundation, PHC solution was adopted to offer strong stability and thus reducing installation cost . Taking into account of complex terrain, Antaisolar offered different length of footing to nearly reduce the cost of land leveling. Besides, the solar tracker controller adopted 800Vac power supply from the nearest inverter. By this way, it is free of lithium battery and don’t require much cable cost and  routing construction, which enhanced performance of the overall system under extremely low temperatures. Moreover, the intelligent tracking algorithm has obvious advantages in this complex terrain. It can completely avoid shadow occlusion during the backtracking under different slopes, and can also improve the power generation of bifacial module in the case of low radiation and high reflectivity. It is estimated that it can achieve 6% annual power generation augment compared with the traditional tracking algorithm. Wind energy+ solar energy, strong complementary energy model for local grid This 30MW solar power plant is the one more cooperation with local EPC, Antaisolar advanced products and considerable expertise are well recognized for the past record. With abundant wind resources, the project is close to a GW-level wind farm, the complementary energy model of photovoltaic + wind energy serve as a new way for popularizing clean energy.

  • Renewables rise again in 2021 Australia energy statistics
    Industry News June 25, 2021 Renewables rise again in 2021 Australia energy statistics
    Source: https://www.energymagazine.com.au/renewables-rise-again-in-2021-energy-statistics/ The Federal Government has released the 2021 Australian Energy Statistics, showing that renewables are increasing as a share of generation in 2020, but coal and gas continue to provide the majority of generation. The statistics for electricity generation shows that 24 percent of Australia’s electricity came from renewable energy in 2020, up from 21 percent in 2019. This increase is driven by a boom in solar installation. Solar is now the largest source of renewable energy at 9 percent of total generation, up from 7 percent in 2019, with one in four Australian homes having solar – the highest uptake in the world. The large uptake of solar helped contribute to the record 7GW of new renewable capacity installed last year, confirming Australia as a renewable energy world leader. But according to the Federal Government, the pace of growth in renewables highlights the important role that more traditional and reliable sources of energy play in the system. This underscores the need for continued essential generation from dispatchable sources to balance and complement the high levels of variable supply entering the energy system to deliver affordable, reliable power for consumers. Importantly, gas-fired generation grew in Queensland and the Northern Territory 2020, with overall generation remaining relatively stable in recent years. Coal also continued to be the backbone of our electricity supply, representing 54 percent of total generation in 2020 and playing an essential role as a stable, baseload source of affordable and reliable power. Federal Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction, Angus Taylor, said the Australian Government is ensuring Australia’s record level of renewable energy is complemented by dispatchable generation. “My focus is ensuring Australia’s energy system remains reliable and affordable for all Australians,” Mr Taylor said. “The Morrison Government is taking strong action to stabilise the grid and get the energy generation balance right to ensure Australians can access the reliable and affordable power they need, when they need it. “We are a renewable energy powerhouse, and this is something we should be proud of, but renewables need reliable generation to back them up and maintain pressure on prices when the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing. “Reliable sources of energy, like coal and gas, will continue to be needed to keep the lights on and deliver 24/7 power for households and businesses as more and more renewables enter the system.” Ensuring the design of the future National Electricity Market (NEM) is fit for purpose is key to the delivery of reliable, secure and affordable electricity to Australian households and businesses.   The Post-2025 Market Design, which is currently open for public response, is the most critical energy reform governments have been tasked to deliver by the National Cabinet.

  • Solar PV Deployment in Europe Enters New Era of Growth
    Industry News June 16, 2021 Solar PV Deployment in Europe Enters New Era of Growth
    Source: https://ihsmarkit.com/research-analysis/solar-pv-deployment-in-europe-enters-new-era-of-growth.html Solar PV deployment in Europe is entering a new era of growth, largely fueled by a bright future for utility-scale systems. In 2019, new installations in the utility-scale sector (systems larger than 5 MW) more than tripled from 2018, to 12 GW. By 2025, IHS Markit forecasts annual installations of these large PV plants in Europe to reach 34 GW. This growth is driven by a combination of EU 2030 targets and the sheer economics of generating renewable power from solar PV. In terms of technology, these new-built PV projects are following a global trend of using 1500V inverters (or even higher voltage over the coming years) and a growing penetration of string inverters. The utilization of tracking structures is gaining interest also in less sunny European markets where fixed structure systems have been the norm. Across Europe, PV system designs incorporate larger modules with increased efficiency, and we see a growing share of bifacial modules in suitable locations. The profitability of individual PV projects will depend highly on technology decisions. It was totally 176GW of PV installed in Europe by 2020, and about 54% of new PV in Europe will be utility-scale through 2025. The EU countries target close to 200GW of the new PV through 2030.
