WindEnergy Hamburg 2026: The Global Meeting Point for the Wind Industry
WindEnergy Hamburg 2026 will once again bring together the international wind community from September 22 - 25, 2026 in Hamburg, Germany. Recognised as the world's leading trade fair for the wind industry, the event is expected to attract more than 1,600 exhibitors and over 43,000 participants from around 100 countries, creating an unrivalled platform for business, innovation and international collaboration.
India Energy Week: 3 Ways to Improve Energy Efficiency, Reliability and Asset Integrity
For fast-growing markets like India, where utilisation rates are high and new capacity is complex to deliver, improving thermal efficiency and asset performance offers a credible way to reduce fuel use, lower emissions and strengthen operational resilience at the same time.
5 Things to Know Before Buying Your First EV Scooter
For first-time buyers, the shift from petrol to electric is not always straightforward. Unlike conventional two-wheelers, EV scooters come with a different set of considerations, battery technology, charging options, digital features, and long-term ownership costs.
Manjunath N. Reddy, the dynamic Founder and Managing Director of DhaSh PV Technologies Limited, is a true visionary in India’s solar PV industry. A true pioneer, his unwavering dedication to sustainable energy solutions has propelled DhaSh to the forefront of the renewable energy sector and made DhaSh India’s largest integrated PV junction box manufacturer, employing over 1,000 dedicated professionals.
Re-NEW-ables Rising: Charging into a New Year
As we bid farewell to 2024, the anticipation for 2025 grows. Next year promises to build upon the strong foundation laid by the transformative investments, budgetary allocations, and policy decisions of 2024. With an unwavering focus on scaling renewable capacity, attracting international investments, and integrating cutting-edge technologies, 2025 is poised to bring India's green aspirations closer to reality. Major renewable energy players shared their plans and growth with Energetica India.
Is Current Model of Hydrogen Powered Economy Really Sustainable?
Green hydrogen reduces CO2 emissions. Currently, 96% of hydrogen is produced using fossil fuels. The conventional production method produces climate-damaging carbon dioxide that escapes into the atmosphere. In the power-to-gas method, however, water is broken down into hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis. While further use is made of the hydrogen, the by-product oxygen can either be used for other applications or simply released into the environment.
Significance of Hydro Power in India’s Energy Mix
Solar and wind power provide clean energy but are intermittent as they are dependent on sun and wind availability. Thermal power and hydropower compensate for the intermittent nature of solar and wind, providing stability to the electric grid. Technical capabilities of hydropower, such as quick start-stop, black-start, spinning reserve, voltage and frequency regulation are more suited to stabilize a dynamic grid.
India’s road towards self-reliance energy storage, COP26, Net Zero and the need for Carbon Finance
With increasing renewable energy (especially solar and wind) deployment across the world, the need for battery storage systems is becoming critically important given the intermittent nature of renewables. With larger deployments and concomitantly lowered costs, battery storage technologies are becoming more technically and financially feasible. However, for this transition to continue, supply of storage systems needs to keep pace with the demand.
Liquefied Natural Gas - The Bridge to Green Profits
At a time when sustainability, carbon footprint and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) are becoming increasingly bigger differentiators of corporate performance, a switch to natural gas can future-proof a business and its income streams.
Why India Dreams of Becoming a Global Green Hydrogen Hub? Is it Possible?
The use of hydrogen requires a major shift in the existing energy infrastructure of the country or the region where hydrogen is proposed to be used. The major challenge then is finance, and for a developing country like ours, replacing existing infrastructure which has an available period of use, will not only become unfeasible financially, but also involve massive wastage of resources.
INDUSTRY JEWEL: Pradeep Kumar, Managing Director - India and Sri Lanka, LONGi Solar
If we see globally, India has played an instrumental role in promoting Renewable energy for a very long time now. The journey looks promising despite facing several challenges on the way!
When it Comes to Optimizing Wind Energy Production, Nature is the Best Teacher
The technology draws from the laws and physics of a natural swarm, i.e., Starling Murmuration, where optimization aims to treat individual turbines on farms as a collective and cooperative ‘swarm’ (as opposed to approaching optimization on a turbine-by-turbine basis). By adopting this new approach to optimizing wind assets, wind energy stakeholders stand to benefit from a 3-5% year on year improvement in AEP, helping the wind industry rise to the challenge of global net zero by 2050.
Towards a Greener Future of Freight
Though India’s foremost effort to decarbonize the transport sector – the electrification of road vehicles – is being pursued vigorously by both central and state governments. And since there is no cost-effective EV option for heavy trucks, especially those engaged in long haul freight, this initiative is only applicable to passenger and smaller freight vehicles. Any low-carbon freight transport option will need massive investment in supporting infrastructure, as well as a long gestation period.
Budget 2022-23:Energizing India’s Energy Sector
While it did enjoy some saubhagya, India’s power sector did not udayas much as it could (pun fully intended). The dilemma between energy security (read: dependence on indigenous coal) and clean energy (read: shift to renewables) continues to swing the proverbial pendulum between net zero commitment of COP26 and the harsh geo-economic realities.
Are Batteries Enough to Fulfill the Industry’s EV PROMISES?
Battery quality and its ability to deliver on all the parameters critically depend on the quality of cathodes, anodes and other critical components. With very little entry barrier, many of the components available in the market cannot be trusted for its quality. Sourcing components from tier-1 suppliers amidst rising demand would pose serious procurement challenges.
