Renexia, an Italian company specialising in construction of renewable generation facilities has commissioned the first 30 MWh offshore wind power plant (WPP) in the Mediterranean. The plant, comprising ten wind turbines, is to generate 55.600 MWh of electricity per year, enough to meet the demand of 18.500 households.
The Rosatom plans to launch a preclinical cyclotron-radiopharmacological complex and a multi-purpose irradiation centre in Bolivia in the near future, which are under implementation as part of a large-scale project of creation of the Centre for Nuclear Research and Technology. In addition to the radiopharmaceutical production facility and a multipurpose irradiation center, the Centre for Nuclear Research includes a reactor facility and a laboratory of radiobiology and radioecology, which are expected to be launched in 2024.
Eneo Cameroon, a Cameroonian electricity company, held a launch ceremony for a small hydropower plant (HPP) in Mbakau, near the city of Tibati, central Cameroon, on April 14. The 1.4 megawatt (MW) mini hydropower plant (HPP) is to supply 500 households in Adamawa, the third largest region in the country.
Cement giant CEMEX, synthetic hydrocarbon producer Sasol ecoFT and energy company Enertrag Re are planning to launch joint production of sustainable aviation fuel, using green hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
Japanese Mitsubishi Heavy Industries plans to commercialise in the 2030s the nuclear reactors that can be trucked to the regions isolated from the general power grid. A micro-reactor of 3×4 m (HxW) size will weigh 40 tons and have the capacity of 0.5 megawatts (MW).
A team of researchers from Sweden and China has created technology making it possible to turn solar energy into liquid, and the latter into heat and electricity. The innovation is an ultra-thin chip that can be integrated into consumer electronics, including headphones, smartwatches and phones. However, with refinement, it could be used for integration of photovoltaic systems into the grid.
