Brazil could add 18.2 GW of energy storage by 2040
That figure would require incentives, regulation and ambition. A study by Clean Energy Latin America (CELA) estimated the Brazilian storage market should grow at least 12.8% annually through 2040, reaching a cumulative 7.2 GW, excluding client-side, ‘behind-the-meter’ installations.
New research estimates average long-term green hydrogen price at $32/MWh
New research from Norway has found that deploying around 140 GW of green hydrogen generation capacity by 2050 could make green hydrogen economically viable in Europe. Reaching this scale may help balance system costs effectively while increasing renewable integration, making green hydrogen a self-sustaining technology without subsidies, according to the scientists.
