As of 2019, the share of Australia’s renewables is increasing mainly due to the consistent uptake of solar power in the residential and commercial sector. This is a well known fact. However, the concept of “energy as export” from the country. The Sun Cable solar project in Northern Territory is such an ambitious undertaking to […]

Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) tracks the “bankability” of solar panel manufacturers through their tier-1 panel lists. It started as a rating system to measure the credit worthiness of solar panel brands for the banking and other financial institutions. Then, over the years, it has become a de facto marketing strategy for advertisements of solar installers in Australia. 

The rank of the “largest solar farm” in Australia keeps on changing due to accelerated uptake of solar Pv technology in the commercial and utility-scale level. This condition is the same globally as well.  For example, the rank of world’s largest floating solar power plant was initially held by South Korea, then China. As of

Solar panel technology is constantly evolving since it penetrated the consumer electronics domain in the past 5 years. One of the prominent innovations that is picking up traction is the bifacial technology – generate power from both sides of a module. These modules can produce more specific power per unit area (25-30% more) than their

In the world of  consumer technology, there are annual exhibitions targeted to bring together the stakeholders of a particular classification, like Mobile World COngress for handheld devices and CES for consumer electronics. The solar industry is at its peak throughout the world. With billions of dollars in investment, from governments to end-users, the stakeholders in this

Established in 2003, Regen Power is a renowned Western Australian company for pioneering innovations in field of solar, wind and offgrid power systems. This 16 year journey included numerous solar farm installations in 3 different continent, making us one of the best commercial solar installers in Australia. Regen provides a wide range of products and

The state of South Australia has one of the fastest adoption of renewables – wind and solar – after Queensland and NSW. The consistency of these renewable systems have also been in question in the past during power outages and the 2016 blackouts. This Tuesday, the south Australia electricity prices were negative for a total

Based in Seoul and Thalheim (Germany), Hanwha Q Cells is one of the largest suppliers of solar PV panels in Australia. With manufacturing facilities in over 3 continents, they offer a wide variety of other PV systems and products. Listed as a FORTUNE Global 500 firm, they have a large focus on research and development

Since the industrial revolution, adoption of some technologies were so prominent that they gradually integrated into our social lifestyle. IC engines, mobile phones, computers are few such examples. One such recent technology evolution is the rooftop PV system. A decade earlier, rooftop PV were a luxury; end-users (residential or commercial) had to evaluate their payback period prior to

Regen Power is proud to be associated with solar farm developer, Finance International Pty Ltd , as Owner’s Engineer for a 49.5MWp commercial solar farm with an expected average electricity generation of 70,000 MWh/year. The US$50million solar power plant is the first of its kind solar power plant in the central province of Quảng Trị , Vietnam and

St John Ambulance Western Australia covers the largest landmass in the world with one single ambulance service. Regen Power is proud to be associated with St John Ambulance in designing and installing an off-grid solar power system in Tooday. Arun Muthiah from Regen Power worked with Kim Maddrell from St John of God Ambulance in

The Indo-German Energy Forum (IGEF) and the Central Board of Irrigation and Power (CBIP) , Govt of India organized a Study Tour cum Training and Capacity building programme on floating solar from 4 to 6 March 2019 in Calicut and Banasurasagar, Kerala. There were around 90 participants from all over India, and countries like Bangladesh,

In the previous article, we analyzed the demand pattern and wholesale market prices in the National Energy Market (NEM) during Q4 2018. Next, we will take a look at the contribution and rate of growth of renewables during this timeframe. Renewable energy (solar and hydro) is evolving to become more reliable, adjusting to demand fluctuations

The electricity market of Australia is constantly shifting since the beginning of solar revolution. The contribution of renewables, peak demand, are now changing quarterly due to shifts in the market. In the last quarter of 2018, the country experienced weathers that are warmer than the previous 10 year average., except in some cities like Sydney.  Adelaide,

Solar energy uptake is seeing a large surge throughout the world – mainly in US, Australia and China. PV panels are pushing technological boundaries to achieve higher mass-production panel efficiency.  As of now, around 22-24% is the highest efficiency of a commercially available solar cell. However, the power generation still depends on a number of factors

One of the crucial requirements in achieving global clean energy regulations and targets is for corporations and utilities to transition to renewable energy along with the residential sector. In 2018, corporations bought about 13GW of green energy (solar and wind). This is almost double the level in 2017. They are not anymore just another method

Last year was phenomenal for renewable energy uptake in the country. Various new projects were approved and commissioned in all states. As usual, Queensland and South Australia led the charge in reshaping the Australian energy landscape through their respective renewable energy targets (RET). This year also seems very favorable to this solar trend. Within the

SA solar market is in a transient state since the Government’s announcement of the South Australia Home Battery scheme. Launched in October 2018, estimates place the venture to return thousands of battery adoptions by the end of this year. The scheme includes prominent battery brands like LG Chem, BYD, Sonnen, Tesla, Enphase, AlphaESS and Varta. The
