MWS - The Biggest Advance in Wind Power Ever Read more about MWS - The Biggest Advance in Wind Power Ever The Madson Wind System (MWS) & MWS Air-Steel Battery are the biggest improvement in Wind Power ever. MWS harvests Wind Energy as Compressed Air (not as electricity), using Hyper Simplified, very robust, very low cost & very low maintenance Wind Turbines. MWS compresses air in stages providing High Pressure - Compressed Air Energy Storage (HP-CAES), stored in the MWS Air-Steel Battery, a system of many low-cost small steel cells, which can store large volumes of HP-CAES for DoD of electricity instantly.
Renewstable® : Clean, Firm and Stable Power Read more about Renewstable® : Clean, Firm and Stable Power HDF Energy is an Independent Power Producer dedicated to Clean Firm Power generation called Renewstable® power plants. This presentation discussed the advantages of stable power, the key items required and a case study. Intermittent power can have difficulties to integrate small to medium sized grids, such as many grid islands we see in South-East Asia. Power plants which deliver a firm, stable and dispatchable power will facilitate the integration of renewable energy on small to medium sized grids. Such stable power can integrate up to 80% grid capacity.
Barriers and Enablers to Renewable Energy Financing and Investment for Grid-connected Wind and Solar Read more about Barriers and Enablers to Renewable Energy Financing and Investment for Grid-connected Wind and Solar Wind and solar are undergoing a global revolution with rapidly increasing installations driven by a range of technical, economic, regulatory, and institutional drivers. Recent work under the USAID, US-APEC Technical Assistance to Advance Regional Integration (US-ATAARI) project, found that countries throughout Asia are setting ambitious clean energy targets but for many countries, progress towards those targets is not keeping up.
Using the Second-Mover Advantage: How Asia Could Leverage a Decade of European Offshore Wind Developments Read more about Using the Second-Mover Advantage: How Asia Could Leverage a Decade of European Offshore Wind Developments Offshore wind energy is maturing quickly and on the verge of becoming one of the most competitive renewable energy technologies. European projects in the North and Baltic Seas have pioneered the industry and the learning curve has been steep. Progress in project management and spatial marine planning approaches have led to substantial drops in both CAPEX and OPEX.
How Renewables Can Optimize Water-Energy-Food Tradeoffs in the Mekong Basin Read more about How Renewables Can Optimize Water-Energy-Food Tradeoffs in the Mekong Basin Through deepening solar, wind, and biomass contributions to power mixes in the countries of the Mekong Basin and rethinking how hydropower and cross-border power trade are positioned to meet regional power demand needs, it is possible to achieve a low impact, low carbon, and low cost energy transition AND conserve the Mighty Mekong's natural resource base. This presentation demonstrated decision making tools and policy pathways for system-scale energy planning and tradeoff analyses at the basin-wide scope that should be used to deliver this transition.
