South African independent power producer the SOLA Group has started construction on a pioneering 195 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) plant in the Free State, which will wheel and sell clean electricity across the country to multiple buyers eager to decarbonised their operations. The R2.8-billion project has already secured an initial three multinational anchor offtakers, but SOLA has reserved a significant portion of the project's energy for flexible, short-term power purchase agreements with a wide range of customers. SOLA says it plans to sign up interested buyers for the uncontracted power from mid-2024, with delivery of electricity scheduled for mid-2025. CEO Dom Wills notes that the initiative is in line with reforms under way in the South African electricity market, which are facilitating the creation of competition among electricity suppliers. "In this sense, SOLA is pioneering the first steps toward a more flexible and efficient electricity system and makes use of the existing Eskom wheeling framework to bring choice and flexibility to South African businesses," Wills adds. Eskom is currently piloting a virtual wheeling platform that will, from 2024 onwards, allow for one or more generators to transact with multiple customers that have disbursed operational footprints, including ones located in municipal distribution areas. SOLA, which has a 15-year track record in the renewable energy market, has already entered into wheeling arrangements with large private customers, including Tronox Mineral Sands, which will buy electricity from plants developed in the North West province. Those two 100 MW projects were the first to be registered by the National Energy Regulator of South Africa in 2022 following an amendment of Schedule 2 of the Electricity Regulation Act allowing for such projects to proceed without a licence and to wheel electricity through the grid. The latest 195 MW project represents the fourth utility-scale renewable wheeling project closed by SOLA in the past 15 months, with the group's wheeling projects under construction currently standing at 581 MW. SOLA says that by mid-2025, its fleet will generate 1.34 terawatt-hours annually, or enough to power nearly 500 000 homes.

Adam Daigle, Business Editor of the Acadiana Advocate, joins Discover Lafayette to discuss the biggest business news of 2023. The #1 story of the year is the incredible strides made in 2023 insofar as job creation is concerned. Iberia Parish is on fire with the recent announcement of First Solar's $1.1 Billion investment to take place on thirty acres at the Acadiana Regional Airport. First Solar will produce high-performance photovoltaic (PV) solar modules. The project is expected to be complete in the first half of 2026 and up to 700 high-paying jobs are anticipated to be created. This enterprise is unique in Louisiana in that it is tied to a new solar training program at UL-Lafayette where students will be educated on designing solar panels. First Solar was founded in 1999 and is among the top 10 solar panel manufacturers in the world. Along with this major announcement, other large regional employers include Amazon at 1300 employees and Stuller at 1500 employees, who have both exceeded projections for local employees. The #2 business story of the year is the large number of local restaurants which closed in early 2023, including the iconic Cafe Vermilionville, Lotus Garden, Grub Burger, The Point Seafood and Steakhouse, BJ's Pizza, and Luna Bar & Grill. By July 2023, the number of closings had settled down. The #3 story of the year is the shake-up at the news desk at KATC, seeing the departure of longtime and popular news anchors Marcelle Fontenot and Jim Hummel who will be joining KADN in January 2024. The move is one being conducted nationally by KATC's owner, E. W. Scripps Co., as a cost-cutting measure. While there will no longer be live news read by anchors at the 5 pm, 6 pm or 10 pm news slots, the company will invest in more reporters to cover breaking news stories throughout the day. Marcelle Fontenot and Jim Hummel recently announced they had resigned from KATC News and will be joining the news desk at KADN in Lafayette. The #4 story is the recently announced departure of Anita Begnaud, CEO of the Lafayette Downtown Development Authority, whose last day will be on December 20, 2023. Anita will be moving on to work with her former boss at One Acadiana, Jason El Koubi, as the Vice President of Marketing and Communications at the Virginia Economic Development Partnership. Under Anita's leadership, the DDA was instrumental in seeing the completion of a myriad of commercial projects in Downtown Lafayette which had languished for years. She brought energy and excitement to her role as CEO and will be sorely missed. Anita Begnaud, CEO of the Lafayette Downtown Development Authority since 2018, recently announce that she will be leaving to work with the Virginia Economic Development Partnership as VP of Marketing and Communications. The #5 business story is the explosive growth occuring in the corridor at Kaliste Saloom Road and Ambassador Caffery Parkway, including the opening this year of Topgolf on December 15 and Dave & Busters which opened November 27. Adam says attracting these type of entertainment venues "brings Lafayette up a class, akin to going from a Double-A to a Triple-A baseball club" as it causes investors to take a closer look at our market and reexamine what is possible in the commercial realm. Other important commercial additions include the recently opened Chimes Restaurant and the development of the Camellia Blvd corridor near Verot School Road which is filling in with medical offices and a new Rouse's, expected to open in early winter. This whole corridor is now serving as the commercial core of Lafayette Parish, is easily accessible by other towns in the parish, and is the economic powerhouse of the Lafayette community generating tax dollars that would have seemed impossible just a few short years ago. As Adam says, "Costco is a sales tax machine!" Discover Lafayette is proud to name attorney Chris Granger as the recipient of our third annual Business Catalyst of the...

Born in Anaheim, California, Lew Gallo, and his family moved to the San Francisco area when he was nine years old. The move was not unfamiliar to Lew and his siblings. His parents were known to take Sunday drives. As it would get later in the day and no sign of his parents, Lew's oldest sister would start to cry but Lew was filled with excitement. This usually meant their parents had found a new home to buy, and for Lew, a new place to discover and new friends to make!It is this excitement of discovery and anticipation of meeting new people that has only flourished with time. After visiting Los Cabos on a quick weekend getaway with friends, Lew was captivated by the beauty of the ocean, terrain, and people of Baja Sur. The practically perfect weather and delicious cuisine only added to its allure. Lew went home, gave his notice at work, and was living in Cabo 3 months later.Now, with 4+ years of living the Cabo life, Lew has become known for bringing people together and sharing his love for all that is Cabo. He has earned a reputation for taking exceptional care of the buyers and sellers he represents, making sure to go the extra mile to get the best deal possible. Whether it's a high-rise condo or a high-end beachfront property, Lew knows the ins and outs of Los Cabos and the surrounding neighborhoods.Before entering real estate, Lew had a successful furniture and interior design career focusing on superior quality and unique sustainable design. He has a discerning eye for architecture and an appreciation of community. Combine that with a genuine concern for people and an ability to hear their specific needs and wants, and you see what drives Lew to be the best at what he does.Lew has had the opportunity to travel the world for both work and pleasure. For his design work, he spent a lot of time in Asia and Europe. During this time, he found a deep love for Vietnam and considered living there at one point. Luca Italy was also on his list of places to live but since his parents were getting up there in age, he wanted to focus on places closer to the US. After crossing PV and PS off of his list, he discovered San Jose del Cabo and knew he found his new home.Check out his website at www.gallo64.com El Pescadero, Mexico:Population: 4,245 (2020)Geography: Located on the Pacific coast of Baja California Sur, Mexico, about 8 kilometers south of Todos Santos and one hour north of Cabo San Lucas.Climate: Hot and dry summers, mild winters.

Space Debris - a problem that continues to exponentially grow as more and more payloads are sent to Earth orbit every day. Old satellites, or ones without fuel or power, essentially become a giant piece of trash that orbits uncontrolled with the “traffic” of low earth orbit. Now, with companies beginning to be hit with government fines over leaving debris in space - what can be done to prevent or reduce the potential and real space debris? This week, we chat with Paul Warley, CEO of Ascent Solar, a thin-film solar provider, about what makes flexible, lightweight solar PV advantageous when it comes to the growing issue of leaving debris floating in space. These flexible solar panels don't just reduce collateral debris from an impact, the panels also retain a huge portion of their power produced, losing essentially only the spot of impact for power generation. Paul shares with us: - How thin-film PV's flexible design helps it stay attached when it comes in contact with floating debris - Why their chemical makeup allows them to keep functioning even after being hit or damaged by floating debris - The fact that even a small collision would result in less space debris, as thin-film PV is not coated with an easily-breakable glass coating, as most traditional solar panels are - How space Business has changed and the internal struggle between ‘New space' and ‘Old space'. - Starlink and the boom of Constellation Internet satellites - His Space Origin story from banker, to 3dprinting, solar technology, and eventually CEO of Ascent Solar Technologies. SOURCES: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-66993647 https://jalopnik.com/faa-says-starlink-satellites-could-kill-people-spacex-1850929346 This was a really fun conversation that I hope you enjoy as much as I did. Paul was a great guest and the potential for the Thin-Film PV solar panels is MASSIVE. Especially if their reflectivity is less than traditional glass solar panels.

Jenny Chase went to work for the London-based startup New Energy Finance in 2005, straight out of university in Cambridge. She founded its solar analysis team and helped establish some of the first reliable indexes of prices in the solar supply chain, as well as some of the first serious industry models and projections. The solar power industry barely existed then. Now solar is the cheapest source of new power in most markets and the International Energy Agency expects it to dominate global electricity by 2050. Throughout that heady transition, Chase has run and grown the solar analysis team, even after the company was bought by Bloomberg and became Bloomberg NEF in 2009. It has become one of the most respected teams in the business and a widely cited arbiter of industry data.In 2019, Chase wrote a book summarizing what she learned over her years analyzing the industry. It is called Solar Power Finance Without the Jargon, but the title is somewhat misleading — it covers solar power finance but also solar power history, technology, and policy. It is leavened here and there with droll bits of biography or advice from Chase and contains an incredible amount of information in a highly compact and readable package, just over 200 pages. A heavily updated second edition was released this month. Also this month came Chase's yearly “opinions about solar” Twitter thread, which is highly anticipated among a certain kind of energy dork [waves].I figured it would be fun to have Chase on the pod to talk about the current state of the solar industry, whether anything but standard-issue solar PV is ever going to flourish, and what the world needs to help balance out increasing penetrations of solar.

The fourth Mangaroo is back! We're always happy to have Minami Sakai drop by Mangaroos Mansion, because she provides us with hard-earned manga industry insider knowledge. And what better manga to apply that wisdom to than Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun? This is a comedy series known for its inside-baseball takes on Shojo manga tropes and the manga production process. In this episode, we learn about the art of Kishōtenketsu storytelling, sloppily dissect Japanese comedy styles, and witness a Shojo manga bromance blossoming before our very eyes. IMPORTANT NOTES: Minami mentions that the PV and MangaPark serialization of her series, 爆死して乙女ゲーに転生したので推しルートを攻略します!or "I Bombed a Pull So Bad it Yeeted Me into an Otome Game, so I'm Gonna Clear My Best Boy's Route!"would be up on November 15th, but they got pushed back! They will likely be available in December or later (exact date TBD). Buy chapters of Minami's manga here.Also! Minami totally likes and approves of a lot of Shogakukan Shojo manga. She is not hating on Shogakukan Shojo in any way.Enjoy the episode!Get in touch with us!Email: mangaroospodcast@gmail.comEverywhere else: @mangaroos
The associations representing the wind and solar sectors as well as independent power producers (IPPs) more generally are eagerly awaiting a proposed curtailment addendum to Eskom's Grid Connection Capacity Assessment (GCCA), which is published yearly to provide connection visibility for new utility scale generators. The latest GCCA was published at the end of October and states that, while there is still 19.9 GW of capacity available, all capacity has been absorbed in the Eastern, Western and Northern Cape provinces, as well as Eskom's Hydra Central grid area, which borders the Cape provinces and the Free State. It was published in the absence of a highly anticipated new framework outlining Eskom's approach to curtailment, which has potential to unlock significant capacity in areas that have previously been shown as having no more capacity to connect. Curtailment involves the active reduction of output from wind and solar plants in response to system security needs or temporary transmission capacity constraints and is widely used by system operators globally to introduce variable renewable generators and optimise the use of the grid. It follows a logic that can arguably be likened to the one used by airlines when seating is overbooked ahead of a scheduled flight in an effort to ensure it is full in a context where some bookings are likely to fall away. Eskom has belatedly aligned itself to this view, having indicated that curtailment will be used even when additional grid capacity is added in areas of constraint, as it would yield the most cost-effective outcome and is, thus, fully aligned to the least-cost criterion embedded in the country's Grid Code. The lack of such a framework came to the fore painfully last year when none of the 23 wind projects that bid for a 3.2 GW public-procurement allocation was selected to proceed on the basis of grid depletion. Eskom has confirmed that a curtailment addendum to the GCCA will be published and has indicated that the framework should unlock 4 GW of connection capacity immediately in the wind-potent Eastern and Western Cape provinces. However, it has not yet indicated when its curtailment addendum will be published. This, despite confirmation by the IPP Office that the framework is required before it can announce the next public procurement round, which was initially scheduled for mid-2023. South African Photovoltaic Industry Association (SAPVIA) CEO Dr Rethabile Melamu describes the release of the GCCA without the curtailment framework and the associated connection capacity that would be unlocked in each supply as "not ideal". "The understanding is that the curtailment framework will unlock additional connection capacity in the constrained greater Cape area, which should have informed available capacity," she says, while also noting that the framework will not immediately embrace solar photovoltaic (PV). South African Independent Power Producer Association chairperson Brian Day argues that Eskom's previous approach to calculating grid capacity, which limits it to a single short period of constraint across the year, sub-optimises the grid potential. "I can't quite understand why we haven't engaged on the curtailment approach long ago," Day adds. He says curtailment rules will unlock significant capacity, and reveals that business is actively engaging to propose commercially viable rules. South African Wind Energy Association (SAWEA) CEO Niveshen Govender says he is pleased that Eskom is considering a curtailment framework that will expand the grid capacity in the short term. "The curtailment framework needs to be well-considered to ensure positive investment conditions for new energy generation infrastructure projects in the South African market." The associations are also keen for consultations on the framework, with clarity needed on the apportionment of curtailment costs. Eskom has raised eyebrows with its recent proposal that compensation for curtailment be a contractual matte...
Ewan Dunlop leads the European Solar Test installation at the Joint Research Centre (JRC). As we will cover in the episode, JRC's work is significant in the standardization and calibration of solar PV technologies, which ensures accurate measurements, reliability, and trustworthy information for consumers. In this episode, Dunlops explains the history of solar PV testing, emphasizing its evolution from early applications in the 70s to current silicon-based module dominance. He highlights the crucial role of standardized testing methods in guaranteeing product quality and market confidence.

This podcast is full of solar history, so we give a shout out to the solar historians 100 and 1000 years from now!! Hey people who have not been born yet! Check us out!! Terence and Johnny have been doing solar PV since the 1980s and have known each other since the early days. Terence tells the story how he was on a small airplane in the South Pacific in the 80s wearing a solar shirt and Ward Bower, the inventor of the grid-tied inverter, tapped him on the shoulder, which started his solar career full steam. Before that he was a marine biologist trying to figure out how to get electricity on a 12 acre island, so he could study oysters. The moral of this story is to always wear a solar T-shirt. Johnny Weiss is famous for starting Solar Energy International (SEI) in 1991 and has been working with PV modules since the mid 1980s. The story of how we decided to do this podcast goes... Johnny invited me to see the SEI campus a few weeks ago and I asked him to be on the podcast. I told him how Terence Parker was going to be on it, and he had great things to say about Terence, so we decided to make Johnny the surprise guest. Johnny was very helpful at helping me interview Terence, so he is probably going to help me interview more historical figures. Here are some of the names we dropped and things we talked about: Arco Solar MREA SEI Bob Ramlow Solis Solar Bridge Ken Olsen Home Power Richard Perez Borneo Sri Lanka Brazil World Bank Sandia Unisolar Out of the jungle Ward Bower Walked the PCH Diving for oysters Remote work Set Long Beach Convention Center on fire (need a follow up podcast on this one) Vestas Offshore wind Small wind Mick Sagrillo Bob-O Schultze LinkedIn pages Terence Parker (not to be confused with Trey Parker of South Park) https://www.linkedin.com/in/terence-parker-2844a15/ Johnny Weiss (same last name as mine, but in a different language): https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnny-weiss-b025106/ To find out more, go to www.SolarSEAN.com and get NABCEP certified!

Topic: Trends in Solar O&M: It's not what you may think.Moderator: Michael Eyman, Managing Director, Origis ServicesGuest: Leila Garcia da Fonseca, Director, Renewables Research for Wood MackenzieWood Mackenzie recently issued a report on the status of Global solar PV operations and maintenance (O&M) service provider dynamics. In Episode 14 of Power Players by Origis®, host Michael Eyman discusses the latest Solar O&M report with Director of Renewables Research, Leila Garcia da Fonseca.During their conversation, the power players discussed trends from 2022 and how those could play out in the coming year in O&M services for solar plants. There were two trends that were surprising:1. Fragmentation of the market, rather than consolidation.2. Price of O&M going down, rather than up.

Applied Materials (AMAT) took second place. In third place is Woodward (WWD). Best ESG Companies Methodology To build the 2023 100 Best ESG Companies list, we started with each company's ESG sustainability score created by Dow Jones Newswires, an IBD affiliate. These scores capture a broad spectrum of information on the ESG profile of more than 6,000 global companies. On Aug. 24, IBD asked Dow Jones for an ESG-scored list of all the U.S.-traded companies it tracks, a total of 2,067. We then cut the list to 1,559 companies on Aug. 25 by removing nonpublic companies and companies with stock prices below $10 a share. We also removed any companies that lacked sufficient data to create an IBD Composite Rating. We further qualified the list by removing those companies that did not meet or beat the S&P 500 in the past five years. [From which] We selected the 100 with the highest IBD Composite Rating — all with scores of 81 or better.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 3) The Best ESG Stocks for Potential Gains Now we have another similarly titled to the first article above.

“The energy market is $8 trillion and solar is 1% of it today. There will be solar companies with $100 billion market capitalizations in the near future.” – Frank van Mierlo, CEO of CubicPV Innovation alert: Solar PV manufacturing is coming back to America Harnessing solar rays for power generation has the potential to be one of the world's most important breakthroughs. The sun hits Earth's atmosphere at 1,366 Watts per square meter, which provides more than enough to power the entire world's energy needs. 70 years ago, scientists at Bell Labs figured out how to convert that energy from the sun into electricity through the invention of the solar photovoltaic cell (“PV”). Their silicon-based solar cell inventions initially had a 4% efficiency, meaning only 4% of the total energy from the sunlight exposed to the cell was converted into useful electricity. In this podcast, we break down the rise of solar manufacturing in China, and how U.S.-based companies are reacting to the opportunity to grow into the $8T energy market. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/7investing/message

On Today's Episode: Over a decade ago, the majority of the large scale solar projects announced, in the queue across the US and backed by major PE firms were not the flat panel PV farms we now see covering the landscape. No, the majority of solar when I entered the industry at the turn of the first decade of this century was concentrating solar thermal power (CSP) and it's a technology that is both highly promising and has been highly fraught with challenges. As China leaned into building large manufacturing complexes around crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, the economics of CSP evaporated, seemingly overnight. Many today would likely tell you that CSP is, well, Dead.Christie Obiaya would like to tell you a different story, one that illuminates the reality that timing is everything, and as so often is the case, CSP was a promising technology that was pushed into the limelight before software was available to provide the kinds of tight controls necessary to really make it feasible at scale. Obiaya is the CEO of Heliogen, a company that utilizes a distinctive combination of concentrated solar thermal technology (CSP), AI, and novel hardware to precisely capture heat for long duration energy storage (10+ hours) and essentially create a thermal battery, or, as she refers to it, a “solar refinery”.This discussion provides an inside look at how Heliogen leverages advancements in GPUs, AI and more to decarbonize hard-to-abate industrial sectors, and what this means for our broader fight against climate change. Learn about Christie Obiaya's inspiring journey, her perspective on the future of renewable energy, and some of Heliogen's current and future projects that strategically positions them in a competitive domestic clean energy market.

We sit down with writers producers, and the cast for a conversation about PV & Franny. ___ At a school where no one knows who's inside the football team's bulldog mascot costume, where a game of hide-and-seek has been going on for the better part of a week, where Dale Wilson, the world's nicest bully, desperately wishes kids would stop giving him their lunch money, two wayward fifteen-year-olds are about to start a band. PV & Franny is a stylized and occasionally surreal 30-minute single-cam comedy about young love, growing up weird, and making music. It follows PV, a confident, take-no-prisoners punk rocker in training, and Franny, a sensitive and taciturn singer-songwriter type, as they navigate falling in and out of love, artistic collaboration, and the perennial difficulty of tuning a B string. It's Sing Street meets The Other Two, with a healthy dose of cult classic The Adventures of Pete & Pete for good measure. Written by the talented Tommy Wallach, and narrated by Ty Burrell, Fred Armisen and other notable names, the two-part series tells the story of two young souls who cross paths in school. Franny is immediately impressed by PV's musical talents, but their connection takes an unexpected turn when PV seeks Franny's help to solve a personal dilemma. Tune in to discover the heartwarming dynamics of friendship, intimacy, and the complexities of young love. In addition to Burrell and Armisen, the star-studded cast includes Liam Richardson, Kensington Tallman, Rahm Braslaw, O'neill Monahan, Samantha Morelos, Eileen Fogarty, and Ruben Ray each adding their unique flair to the narrative. ____ Follow Table Read (@TableReadPodcastLA) on Instagram for more info!
