Solar power has surpassed coal in China by becoming the main source of electricity production capacity, with an installed capacity reaching 1.286 gigawatts, marking a key milestone in the country's energy transition. (translated)
For the first time, the installed capacity of solar energy in China has surpassed that of coal-fired power plants, reaching 1.286 billion kilowatts, according to the National Energy Administration. (translated)
A strong demand related to air conditioning, the shutdown of several nuclear power plants, and little wind for wind turbines have led to a record increase in electricity prices in France, reaching more than 177 euros per megawatt-hour, due to persistent heatwaves. (translated)
An old solar geoengineering project that we long considered science fiction. Here we are. (translated)
The production of solar energy in European countries increased by up to 17% on hot days, helping to meet the rising demand for electricity, according to a study. (translated)
Due to the excessive heat this summer, several European countries, including France, had to shut down nuclear power plants, while solar energy helped meet a strong increase in electricity demand, with photovoltaic production up 17% in France. (translated)
The study by the Ember think tank reveals that solar energy production in Europe increased by 17% during the heatwaves in June and July, thereby meeting the growing demand for electricity, although reliance on gas-fired power plants remains critical in the evening when demand remains high. (translated)
According to a study by the think tank Ember, solar energy production in Europe increased by 17% during the heat waves in June and July, helping to stabilize the power grid in the face of increased demand, although reliance on gas plants remains crucial in the evening due to the intermittent nature of solar energy. (translated)
A study by the think tank Ember reveals that solar energy production in Europe increased by 17% during the heatwaves in June and July, helping to meet increased electricity demand, while other energy sources faced challenges, highlighting the importance of combining solar and battery storage to strengthen the electrical grid during periods of extreme heat.
