Since its founding in 2011, Convergent has over $1bn invested in projects in operation or allocated to projects under development, making the company a leading independent owner and operator of energy storage and solar-plus-storage solutions.
And yet, despite the overwhelmingly urgent need for energy storage around the world, the application of project finance mechanisms to battery energy storage projects has been patchy to date. This report analyses the barriers to obtaining project finance for BESS projects, as well as highlighting the lessons that can be learnt from early BESS project …
To meet President Joe Biden''s climate change goals, the U.S. needs to expand its green energy commitments quickly. It''s going to take a lot more land to do so too.
How much land is required for wind? We analyzed the data from a few dozen large wind projects in the US from the US EIA databases. On average, it takes about 26 acres of land to generate a million kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity (a million kWh is the same as 1 gigawatt hour (GWh)).
