Renewables UnWind’s Post

A huge milestone for clean energy in Massachusetts! The Kenzi at Bartlett Station is the first all-electric mid-rise in the state. Going 100% electric is often difficult for buildings over four stories because the local fire and inspection departments require emergency battery backup power systems for safety measures if the power goes out. However, The Kenzi's owner and developer, Preservation of Affordable Housing (POAH), worked with architectural firm DREAM Collaborative, LLC and solar energy provider and designer ReVision Energy to install and permit a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). This system represents the first time an all-electric system was approved to replace a fossil fuel generator in a multifamily building in the state– marking a pivotal advancement and case study for clean energy as the state aims to reach net zero emissions by 2050. #SolarEnergy #AffordableHousing #AllElectric #RenewableEnergy

🌐 Exciting News in Clean Energy Development! 🌿 Consolidated Edison is making strides in the transition to renewables with the construction of three new underground 138-kV transmission lines in Queens. These lines, a key part of the Reliable Clean City program, will deliver 900 MW of renewable energy to NYC, supporting the city's ambitious clean energy goals. The utility's innovative approach, including creative construction processes, has not only expedited the project but also resulted in significant cost savings. The commitment to open communication with stakeholders has fostered community trust and minimized disruptions during construction. Join the conversation! What are your thoughts on Con Edison's initiatives to enhance grid reliability while advancing sustainability? How can other urban areas learn from these efforts? Share your insights below! 👇 Let's discuss the future of clean energy in our cities. #CleanEnergy #Sustainability #InfrastructureInnovation

🔋 Just returned from holiday to see that two more of our AECOM #VirtualConsultations have been launched successfully for Amberside Energy on the #DobbyRocks BESS and #Briercliffe BESS. These battery energy storage systems will enhance grid resilience, storing enough energy to power approximately 650,000 and 250,000 homes for two hours, respectively. They will also support the region's #netzero carbon goals by facilitating more #renewable and low-carbon energy projects. The #consultations provide the public with opportunities to understand the projects, ask questions, and give feedback, which will help inform the proposals: ⚡ Dobby Rocks BESS: https://acm.vc/dobbyrocks ⚡ Briercliffe BESS: https://acm.vc/briercliffe AECOM Energy #Energy #Environment #Resilience #FutureOfInfrastructure #SustainableLegacies #ESG

🏢 As we build more strata communities, the potential roof space available in strata, grows and represents a great opportunity for communities to install solar.

A clean energy future means new network connections and transmission lines are needed to bring energy from the source to the market for distribution to homes, businesses and services. The Victoria to NSW Interconnector West or VNI West is a proposed double circuit 500kV transmission line connecting New South Wales and Victoria's transmission grids to harness power from each state’s Renewable Energy Zones. With a project of such scale and importance, community consultation is vital. To support Transgrid’s community consultation program, we’ve created an interactive map that serves as a one-stop shop for information, insights, project overviews, mapping, future visualisation and community ‘talk to us’ facilities highlighting the relevant local forums and community information sessions. This means that stakeholders have a complete perspective of the planned project, can understand its local impacts and, most importantly, have their say on the project that will support our long-term clean energy future! Learn more at: https://lnkd.in/gECApmh7 #energy #power #transmissionlines

Solar Power World highlights an important development for solar growth in America: state support for development on landfills. They discuss how a handful of states, such as New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia, are incentivizing the repurposing of decommissioned landfills. 🏗️☀️Take a look. https://lnkd.in/evqP_KKN ➡️Also, check out Harry Benson’s Standard Solar blog exploring the value of solar development on brownfields and landfills.
