Their findings could alter the global industry, so solar can be used to produce green ammonia for export to countries like Japan and Germany, instead of straight hydrogen.From pv magazine Australia Researchers from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and the University of Sydney (USYD) have put their big heads together and managed to produce green ammonia from air, water, and solar energy in a fashion that does not also require high temperatures, .
Tidal flats in eastern China to host 300 MW of solar
Developers have already connected 3 MW of capacity in what is purportedly destined to be the world s largest PV array on a coastal tidal flat. The project, which is particularly challenging due to tidal fluctuations, will feature PV components designed to cope with salt and water damage.Sinohydro Bureau 12, a Chinese infrastructure construction specialist, is overseeing the development of a 300 MW solar project on tidal flats in Xiangshan County, in the eastern Chinese province of Zhejiang. Chinese inverter supplier Ginlong, which is supplying components for the project, said that the plant will .
