El ITE ha puesto en marcha un proyecto que desarrollará una electrónica integrada capaz de combinar en un mismo sistema las ventajas de las baterías de litio y de las pilas de hidrógeno para propulsar drones y patinetes eléctricos, basada en convertidores multipuerto.

El proyecto, con una inversión total de 9.500 euros, consiste en un sistema de autoconsumo con compensación de excedentes, integrado por 15 módulos fotovoltaicos de 555 Wp cada uno.

Se trata de los proyectos de La Caleta, con una capacidad de 5,13 MWh; El Rodeo, de 4,56 MWh; Arcos del Coronadero, de 3,99 MWh; Las Casillas I, de 3,99 MWh; y Lomo del Moral, también de 3,99 MWh, que se ubicarán en el municipio de San Bartolomé de Tirajana.

El objetivo del proyecto Noronha Verde, que desarrolla en Brasil la filial de Iberdrola, es alcanzar hasta el 85% de descarbonización en la isla gracias a instalaciones fotovoltaicas, almacenamiento, redes inteligentes, movilidad eléctrica, innovación tecnológica y microgeneración distribuida.

Although vertically integrated ESS-cell suppliers retain more control over their supply chain, system integrators’ flexibility may help them in the medium-term, writes Solar Media Market Research analyst Charlotte Gisbourne.

Three large-scale BESS with a combined capacity of 720MW have been submitted for federal assessment under Australia's EPBC Act.
