Researchers from the Monash Suzhou Research Institute and the University of Queensland have developed a nanofiltration technology to extract lithium from low-grade saltwater brines with high magnesium content. The technology achieves 90% lithium recovery, nearly double the performance of traditional methods, while dramatically reducing extraction times.
The volume of large-scale battery energy storage projects under construction in Australia passed that of solar and wind projects combined in 2023 and the trend has intensified this year, with batteries attracting federal support. As coal-fired power plants are shuttered, developers and suppliers are enjoying a battery bonanza.
Engie has started construction on the 250 MW Goorambat East solar farm in Victoria, Australia. It is the state’s largest solar project under construction and is expected to be operational by 2027.
An Australian Research Council funded report co-authored by Sydney-based University of New South Wales and UK-based charity SolarAid says the off-grid solar sector should do more to enhance its product repair initiatives.
South Australia has announced two proposed release areas designated for the development of large-scale renewable energy projects in the Whyalla and Gawler Ranges regions.
Battery and inverter manufacturer Redback Technologies has bounced back from a tumultuous start to the year – including a short stint in voluntary administration – with the launch of a new range of solar and energy storage products.
Researchers in Western Australia have discovered a method to increase the number of molecules that adhere to the surface of tiny semiconductor nanocrystals. They claim this breakthrough could significantly enhance the efficiency and performance of solar panels.
Nexif Ratch Energy, a renewable energy-focused platform in Southeast Asia and Australia, has reached financial close on a 145 MWp solar farm being developed in the Philippines.
Australia’s SunDrive Solar will join forces with Chinese PV manufacturer Trina Solar to develop “cutting-edge” manufacturing facilities and bring Australian-made solar panels to market at scale.
Western Australian gas utility ATCO Australia has achieved a network distribution blend of up to 10% renewable hydrogen, produced by a solar-powered electrolyzer, for 3,000 homes.
