Harvesting solar energy in countries short on land space through use of floating photovoltaic systems, enabled by SABIC

Photovoltaic panels provide a clean means of harvesting energy from renewable source. It is ironic that in many countries where these panels work the best – around the tropics where the sun is highest –the technology is not as cost-effective as it could be. With its global expertise in production of a wide range of thermoplastics, backed up by applications development, technical support and services for customers, SABIC is helping change the equation.

The Microgrid Solution: Transforming EV Charging Station Infrastructure for the Future

As the number of EVs increases, several key problems will inevitably arise. Unmanaged peak load from EV charging
will place stress on current electricity grid infrastructure, which will be detrimental to both charging point operators (CPSs) and consumers, because it will lower the quality of charging services across the entire grid. Demand penalties intended to work around this problem will also increase operating costs for CPOs, and this will undoubtedly be passed onto the consumer.
