Chinese module manufacturer LONGi has released its financial results for the first half of 2021, reporting revenue of 35.098 billion yuan (around US$5.438 billion), an increase of 74.26% compared to the same period of last year. The company earned a net profit of 4.993 billion yuan (around US$773.688 million), up 21.30% over the prior-year period. 2021 has been a bit of a mixed year for Chinese manufacturers, depending on how much of the supply chain they control. For a relatively large and integrated firm like LONGi, this has meant bumper profits on the back of higher prices.

The company’s debt to assets ratio in H1 FY21 was 55.18%, a decrease of 4.20 percentage points compared to the end of 2020. LONGi has obtained 1,196 patents to date. Investment in R&D increased to 1.614 billion yuan, accounting for 4.60% of the revenue during the reporting period.

LONGi shipped 38.36GW of monocrystalline silicon wafers during the period, including 18.76GW in exports, a year-on-year increase of 36.48%. Shipments of monocrystalline modules stood at 17.01GW, with exports reaching 16.60GW, an increase of 152.40%. The proportion of revenue from modules increased to 67%, as compared to 57% in the prior corresponding period.

In early June 2021, the company announced that the R&D conversion efficiency of its N-type TOPCon and HJT cells had reached 25.21% and 25.26%, respectively, while that of the newly announced P-type TOPCon cells reached 25.19%, a new record. Among them, the efficiency records of N-type TOPCon and HJT cells were included in the Solar Cell Efficiency Tables (Version 58) compiled by Martin Green, Scientia Professor at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.

In March 2021, LONGi entered the hydrogen energy sector and established laboratories in cooperation with several leading universities. This year, the firm also entered into a strategic partnership with CENTER to jointly develop the BIPV business in large-scale public and industrial buildings, expanding the application scenarios of PV products and promoting the applications of BIPV at scale. Additionally, LONGi, together with several industry players, has proposed the standardization of M10 silicon wafers and modules and issued the 182 Module Products white paper.

Belgian Companies Unveil

‘World’s 1st H2-powered Excavator’

Belgian companies CMB.TECH (a hydrogen solutions firm) and Luyckx (a crane equipment manufacturer) have recently presented the “first hydrogen-powered dual fuel excavator,” which is meant to provide gradual ecological development within the heavy construction and earthmoving sector.

With this machine, companies within the sector can embark on energy transition with today’s machines without being permanently dependent on the availability of hydrogen, said an official statement.

CMB.TECH and Luyckx state that this is the first solution within the entire heavy excavator sector that allows concrete greening without limiting the machine’s power or autonomy. Traditional fuel remains available and the machine can continue to operate if the supply of hydrogen is not available.

In other words, the machine can be purchased and put into service today, even if the hydrogen issue for the customer or site has not yet been fully worked out, said CMB.TECH. With these first generation dual fuel machines, CO₂ emissions can be reduced by up to 50%, the firm added.

Besides the excavator, CMB.TECH has also unveiled its new mobile hydrogen refueller. It is said to deliver up to 600 kg of green hydrogen at 350 bar to the consumer. This works for excavators, but also for other applications such as trucks, port equipment, ships and gensets. The mobile refuelling station is the answer to hydrogen supply in maritime and industrial applications, claims the Belgian company.

“Driven by the wishes of our end users and fleet owners, we launched an own initiative feasibility study with regard to possible alternative solutions that help to reduce CO₂ emissions, make the machine park more sustainable and do business in a socially responsible way. Given this vision, the collaboration with CMB.TECH was started in order to convert a 37 ton excavator (Hitachi ZX350LC-7) to a dual fuel engine (hydrogen/diesel), thus taking a first concrete step towards greening the sector,” said Jos Luyckx, CEO of Luyckx.

“The additional cost of the machines in the sector is rather limited, with the kgs of hydrogen used leading directly to CO₂ reduction. As of today, we offer the applications to enable up to 8 tonnes of CO₂ reduction per site per day, anywhere in the Benelux, without operational restrictions at the lowest possible cost,” said Roy Campe, CTO of CMB.TECH.

Renewable Energy Marketplace LevelTen Raises $35 Million

Series C Funding

LevelTen Energy, a leading provider of renewable transaction infrastructure, has completed a $35 million Series C funding round led by NGP ETP, with participation from My Climate Journey (MCJ) Collective, as well as nearly all of LevelTen’s existing investors, including Avista Development, Constellation Technology Ventures, Equinor Ventures, Founders’ Co-op, Prelude Ventures, Techstars, TotalEnergies Ventures and Wireframe Ventures. In addition, Google participated as part of its goal of supporting innovative solutions that help enable businesses of all sizes, including Google Cloud customers, to source 24/7 carbonfree energy. With this fund raise, LevelTen has now raised $62.3 million, in aggregate.

This latest capital infusion will help the company further scale its existing renewable energy transaction platform, which comprises the Energy Marketplace, Asset Marketplace and Performance Monitoring software. The company will also use proceeds to develop additional software solutions to accelerate the clean energy transition, investing in real-time load matching technology (24/7), project developer services, environmental and social justice scoring systems, and more advanced power purchase agreement (PPA) products.

The LevelTen Platform is now claimed to be the world’s largest online hub for utility-scale renewable energy deals, connecting a range of energy advisors and experienced buyers with more than 500 project developers, owners and financiers. LevelTen’s partner network now includes more than 25 energy advisors and retail electricity providers, including 3Degrees, Accenture, Constellation, Deloitte and South Pole. The LevelTen Energy Marketplace delivers access to the world’s largest collection of PPAs, with more than 4,000 offers from 1,300 projects spanning 21 countries in North America and Europe. To date, LevelTen claims to have facilitated more than $5 billion in renewable energy transactions and 3.3 gigawatts of renewable energy deals.

“In market after market, when the majority of buyers and sellers coalesce around a single technology platform, tremendous growth and value creation typically follow,” said Philip Deutch, Partner, NGP. “With renewable energy projects, sophisticated software is key to helping buyers and sellers align on risk, value and terms, and transact more efficiently. We believe LevelTen is the leading global network for renewable transactions and is positioned to dramatically grow its business with the right capital partners. We are pleased to be one of those partners and think that our experience growing global energy transition companies can really add value.”

To reach net zero emissions by 2050, BloombergNEF has estimated that 1,400 gigawatts of renewables need to be deployed every year, on average, for the next three decades, and annual investment in energy supply and infrastructure must double, exceeding $3.1 trillion per year. By delivering the marketplaces, software, standards and analytics necessary to execute efficiently, LevelTen facilitates better and faster deals for energy buyers, sellers, advisors and financiers.

“In 2018, LevelTen dramatically improved the power purchase agreement process with the launch of the LevelTen Energy Marketplace,” said Bryce Smith, Chief Executive Officer, LevelTen Energy. “In 2021, we released the LevelTen Asset Marketplace, simplifying the process of buying and selling the projects themselves. Now, with this new funding, LevelTen will advance the industry again with the launch of even more transaction infrastructure products and services vital to accelerating the energy transition. Renewable transactions will surely become as customary and as efficient as fossil fuel transactions, and we’re intent on improving our platform until that happens.”

Shell & CoensHexicon to Build 1.4 GW Floating Wind Farm in South Korea

Shell Overseas Investment BV, a unit of Dutch oil and gas major Royal Dutch Shell, and CoensHexicon have established a joint venture to fund, develop, and operate MunmuBaram, a 1.4 GW floating offshore wind farm for South Korea. MunmuBaram is expected to power over 1 million homes once it begins operating.

The two companies announced their collaboration two years ago and have now set up a firm called MunmuBaram Co Ltd exclusively for the project. Shell Overseas Investment holds an 80% stake in the JV, while CoensHexicon accounts for 20%. CoensHexicon is also a partnership between Hexicon AB, a Swedish engineering company, and Coens Co Ltd., a Korean service provider.

The floating offshore wind farm will be located off the southeast Korean coast, between 40 and 50 miles (65 and 80 km) from the city of Ulsan. It will cover an area of approximately 93 square miles (240 square km).

Ulsan is the industrial powerhouse of South Korea. It is said to have the world’s largest automobile assembly plant, the world’s largest shipyard and the world’s third largest oil refinery. Initial project development started in early 2019 and was led by CoensHexicon.

The $4.9 billion project is currently at a feasibility assessment stage and is expected to be developed in phases. Over the past year, the developers have been collecting various measurements, including critical offshore wind data at the project location, with which they intend to apply for an Electricity Business License (EBL) this month. A final investment decision is expected in the mid-2020s.

South Korea aims to increase domestic renewable energy generation to 20% of the energy mix by 2030 and to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

“Korea’s capabilities in the fabrication of offshore facilities and shipbuilding could play a pivotal role in the development and fabrication of floating offshore wind foundations not only for Korea but also for the region and beyond,” commented Joe Nai, Shell’s General Manager, Offshore Wind Asia.

Steve Seo, CEO of CoensHexcion, noted that the company is also developing new areas in South Korea in addition to the current project.

Henrik Baltscheffsky, CEO of Hexicon AB and Director of CoensHexicon Co., Ltd, said: “This is the start of our commercial journey in South Korea and similar places around the globe. We have formed a project company in Busan, TwinWind Development Co. Ltd, obtained an adequate water area offshore Ulsan City and are developing the first commercial floating wind farm.”

“Our collaboration with Shell will contribute a wealth of skills and expertise when it comes to developing and operating a large floating wind farm. This includes serial manufacturing in South Korea of the patented multi-turbine foundation design developed by Hexicon in Sweden.”

Japan to Recycle Solar Modules Using Blockchain Tech

Solar PV manufacturer Next Energy and trading and investment business conglomerate Marubeni are partnering to recycle used solar panels using blockchain technology, as part of a programme supported by Japan’s Ministry of the Environment.

Mitsubishi Research Institute will also assist the two companies in developing and demonstrating the potential of blockchain in reporting and recording information on the reuse and recycling of used solar cells.

This technology should be able to inspect the solar modules and provide data on the traceability and components used, as well as verifying that these data were not modified or tampered with.

This technique is expected to enable the identification of a larger amount of modules that can still be reused or recycled, which would reduce the amount of waste in landfills and, in the case of modules being reused, would also lower their carbon footprint and produce other environmental benefits, says Next Energy.

In Japan, the deployment of solar PV has grown rapidly, in particular over the course of the past decade in the wake of the Fukushima disaster. With their product life of 20 to 30 years, by the mid-2030s approximately 800,000 tons of solar panels will require replacing annually, according to Ministry of Environment data quoted by Next Energy. Others can be replaced for other reasons such as damage or upgrading.

Next Energy has been undertaking solar PV recycling since 2005, which it operates under the REBORN Technology brand. Among its findings from inspection of over 40,000 used solar cells are that they can retain up to 80% performance after 25 years of use.

The company also is contributing to the drafting of guidelines for solar panel re-sale being developed by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organisation (NEDO).

In parallel with the blockchain demonstration, Next Energy also has launched a used solar cell recovery demonstration, again with the support of the Environment Ministry. Solar modules that are no longer needed may be taken to a collection site or will be collected free of charge, from where they will be taken for recycling.

According to a draft of its latest energy policy, renewables in Japan should account for 36-38% of power supplies in 2030, double the level of 18% in the financial year to March 2020. The earlier target was for renewables to contribute 22-24% of electricity in 2030.

In Boost to US, WTO Rules Against China

On Solar Tariffs Dispute

The World Trade Organization (WTO) on September 2 ruled in favor of the United States in a dispute with China over tariffs on solar panels that were imposed by the previous American administration on imports from China.

The tariffs had been slapped on in January 2018 by the Trump administration, setting off a chain of events that continues to play out to this day. Primarily in the form of a massive US push to recover lost manufacturing ground. However, the tariffs have never quite been welcomed by large sections of US solar industry members, owing mainly to the fear of rise in solar costs.

China had made a request at the WTO set up a dispute panel to judge whether the tariffs violated international trade rules, and in its decision, the body said it “rejected all of China’s claims.”

With the tariffs and other barriers only spreading further, it remains to be seen how China handles this. What has actually happened so far is that China based manufacturers supplying key raw materials, citing multiple issues, have hiked prices of key inputs significantly in 2021. While some countries have called this profiteering, others have pointed to the real issues caused by Covid disruptions and other natural disasters like floods in support.

But it is becoming increasingly clear that with the major increase seen for Solar in the energy transition, many key markets no longer wish to have the kind of dependence on Chinese imports that they were only too happy with, right through 2015-2020.

At the time of filing, we have no information on China’s plans following this rebuff at the WTO. An appeal seems likely.

Lowest Bid of $0.01332/kWh Reported in

Chile’s Renewables Auction

The National Energy Commission of Chile (CNE) held a 2.31 TWh/year renewable energy auction last week, in which the lowest bid was submitted for $0.01332/kWh for a solar PV project. 29 bidders took part in the bidding process, which was conducted by Empresas Eléctricas AG and by Enel, to provide electricity to the National Electric System from 2026 to 2041. The lowest bid was offered by Canadian Solar Libertador Solar Holding for a solar project, reported local daily La Tercera.

Several bids were submitted in the $0.021/ kWh and $0.028/kWh range, and a bid of $0.0399/kWh for a concentrated solar power (CSP) project was also submitted, which is the lowest one for an energy auction at a global level till date. The bid relates to the 390 MW Likana Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) project, under development by EIG Global Energy Partners.

Early 2020, Chile was one of the first countries to officially submit an updated Paris Agreement target to the UNFCCC. The updated Nationally Determined Contribution (2020 NDC) involves greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions peaking by 2025 at the latest, and then a decrease to emit no more than 95 million tonnes of greenhouse gases by 2030. These mediumterm emission pledges were made in the context of a long-term vision and goal of GHG neutrality by 2050.Within the new bidding law framework, CNE is responsible for designing, coordinating, and directing the public bidding process for this year. The objective of the bidding process is to help electricity distribution companies to have contracts for the long-term supply of electricity to their customers subject to price regulations.

The bidding terms consider reducing risks to encourage the participation of different energy suppliers, achieve competitive prices that benefit regulated customers and give more access to different types of energy, including storage.

Companies which participated through bids included Acciona Energía Chile Holdings, Enel Generación Chile, Canadian Solar Libertador Solar Holding, Renovalia Chile Dos, Pacific Hydro Chile, etc.

Developing Energy Storage Key for India’s Decarbonisation, finds Study

In order to achieve its target of 450 GW of wind and solar by 2030, India’s wind and solar capacity must grow 20% year-overyear between 2022 and 2030. Developing energy storage is a key avenue for increasing India’s power system flexibility and the share of renewables and ultimately enabling India’s decarbonisation, finds a new study by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

To date, there has been no comprehensive assessment of cost-effective opportunities for bulk grid storage in South Asia. The new study, entitled “Energy Storage in South Asia: Understanding the Role of Grid- Connected Energy Storage in South Asia’s Power Sector Transformation,” provides a first-of-its-kind assessment of cost-effective opportunities for grid-scale energy storage in South Asia, especially in India.

Under All Scenarios, Major Opportunities for Energy Storage Through 2030 and Beyond

The study team, composed of Ilya Chernyakhovskiy, Mohit Joshi, David Palchak, and Amy Rose, evaluated storage growth under various technology cost, policy, and regulatory scenarios, resulting in a range of trajectories for storage growth over the next three decades.

By 2030, energy storage capacity from these scenarios in India ranges from 50 to 120 GW, or 160 to 800 gigawatt hours (GWh), and continues climbing to between 180 to 800 GW (750–4,800 GWh) by 2050. Based on this modeling, 50 GW of energy storage by 2030 is a lower-bound estimate for the total storage market size in India, with most of this capacity expected to come from battery storage projects.

Storage Projects Are Most Cost-Effective When Providing Multiple Value Streams

The team evaluated multiple value streams from energy storage and the potential contributions of storage to grid flexibility at different timescales are:

Energy time-shifting throughout the day to reduce curtailment of renewable energy and reduce the cost of electricity during peak demand.

Provision of reliable capacity for long-term system reliability, helping offset the need for new coal-fired power plants.

Provision of on-call operating reserves needed to manage grid frequency.

Understanding multiple value streams in the study’s modeling was key, because energy storage projects are typically most cost effective when they provide multiple services, and cost-effective projects are more likely to get built when developers have access to multiple revenue streams. Additionally, as energy storage becomes a greater share of the overall capacity of the system, its ability to serve multiple roles will greatly impact the growth of the system.

For example, the study shows that when energy storage is barred from providing operating reserves, overall storage deployment in India is 24% lower compared to the reference case. In place of energy storage, new conventional resources, such coal- and gas-fired power plants, are built to meet the operating reserve requirement in that scenario. This leads to a 4% increase in overall system costs and a 15% increase in carbon emissions over the planning horizon.

Operational Benefits Extend Across the South Asia Region

For the South Asia grid including India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal, energy storage can play a major role in future system operations. Modeling results found that energy storage supports the regional system by providing balancing services, which helps to avoid renewable energy curtailment and balance renewable energy forecast errors. It does this by bolstering ramping capabilities and shifting the timing of energy supply.

Opportunities for storage to improve grid operations and reduce costs individually in Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal were also assessed. Bangladesh currently relies on expensive, high-polluting diesel- and fuel-oilfired power plants to manage demand and provide peaking power.

This study finds that energy storage could displace fuel oil consumption in Bangladesh, reducing the carbon intensity and the costs of grid operations. Storage in Bangladesh can charge during daytime hours and discharge during the evening peak, reducing the need to start up fuel oil generators.

Bhutan and Nepal, on the other hand, rely primarily on hydropower resources to meet domestic demand and to provide electricity exports to India. In both countries, adding energy storage helped optimize the use of domestic hydropower resources and reduce daytime renewable energy curtailment in India by shifting exports more to the evening hours.

“This study shows how a level playing field for energy storage to compete with conventional technologies can lead to an increase in renewable energy deployment, reduced air emissions from the power sector, and lower costs for electricity,” Chernyakhovskiy said.

“While we didn’t evaluate energy storage versus other emerging technologies, such as demand response, electric vehicles, or distributed energy resources, the results of this study make clear that cost-effective energy storage in South Asia is right around the corner.”

Tesla & Local Partners to Build Storage Facility in Japan

US auto major Tesla is partnering with Japanese companies to build an energy storage facility using its rechargeable battery in Hokkaido in northern Japan to help stabilise the power system.

Tesla will collaborate with Japanese power retailer and aggregator Global Engineering and engineering firm EneVision to build the energy storage facility connected to the grid with 6,095 kWh capacity that could power about 500 homes.

Tesla will supply its Megapack battery technology for the project, which is due to start operating in summer 2022.

Global Engineering will be the operator, selling power to the wholesale electricity market, balancing market and capacity market, while Ene-Vision will handle engineering, procurement and construction.

The project’s estimated cost is said to be around 300 million yen ($2.7 million).

Global Engineering said that the project aims to help further expansion of renewable energy and to reduce costs by absorbing fluctuations and stabilising output through the use of generators and storage batteries. Tesla announced its second quarter (Q2) quarterly results last month. The firm, with an oversized presence and impact in the EV segment, has shared some key metrics for its solar and energy storage business this time. In fact, even as it has postponed the launch of its electric trucks, the Semi Truck to 2022, the firm claims that but for shortage of chips, its storage business would have been even stronger this past quarter. The company declared $12 billion in revenues, with a net income of $1.14 billion. The solar and storage business accounted for $801 million topline. This includes its three main offerings here: solar, its Powerwall storage device for homes and businesses, and its year old utility storage unit Megapack. Not only has this group grown 62% in revenues over the previous quarter, it has also turned profitable. Total cost of the business, according to Tesla, was $781 million.

Tesla founder Elon Musk has indicated the firm will look at powering some of its products with batteries using lithium-ironphosphate (LFP) chemistry in the future.

Chennai-Based Lucas TVS Plans 10 GWh

Battery Gigafactory in Tamil Nadu

Lucas TVS, the Chennai-based auto components major that is part of the TVS group has signed an agreement with 24M’s advanced ‘SemiSolid’ electrode technology. 24M has built its reputation on the promise of a lithium-ion battery manufacturing process that is more modular, efficient and low cost. Spun out of MIT, it already has partnerships with EV battery companies and battery storage system makers around the world, including Japan’s Kyocera, which has been piloting production of 24M cells for use in residential battery systems and Canadian residential and small commercial battery storage maker Eguana Technologies. Norwegian lithium battery startup Freyr is also a partner.

Lucas TVS says that it wants to open the gigafactory in Thervoy Kandigai, Gummudipundi, by the second half of 2023 and build up production capacity to 10GWh in two stages, with the expectation that other plants will be constructed around the country at later dates. The cells manufactured at the plant would be used in stationary energy storage systems — including grid-scale — as well as in electric cars and will also be aimed at replacing lead acid batteries for various applications. We believe the firm will expect to be a part of the PLI scheme for battery manufacturing with these plans.

For 24M, the deal, if it fructifies, will be its first big one in India. Beyond its cost advantages, 24M’s patented cell design enhances safety, reliability, and traceability, by virtually eliminating potential metal contamination, the most common cause of shorts in conventional lithium-ion cells. It has created a binder-free manufacturing process which enables electrodes four to five times thicker than other lithium cells. This removes a “substantial portion of the inactive material set,” including copper, aluminium and cell separator, allowing lower costs and complexity.

Lucas TVS plans to build products using different chemistries, in Pouch and Prismatic cell formats, with high energy density. The products will meet customer needs in e-mobility, stationary energy storage, including grid-scale markets, and lead acid battery replacement. Lucas TVS will also be offering complete battery solutions to those customers who need them.

“Lucas TVS believes in investing in the nextgeneration technologies, which is why we chose to partner with 24M,” stated T.K. Balaji, Chairman and Managing Director, Lucas TVS. “We are confident that their innovative SemiSolidTM platform technology will enable us to provide our customers affordable e-mobility, lead acid battery replacement and storage solutions with improved quality and best-in-class safety.”

“We are delighted to partner with a market leader like Lucas TVS with a 60+ year track record of performance as a leading provider of electromagnetic solutions to the mobility market,” commented Naoki Ota, Chief Executive Officer of 24M. “Our innovative SemiSolidTM technology and ongoing R&D investments will support Lucas TVS’s ambition to become a leader in the energy storage space for mobility, lead acid battery replacement, storage and grid scale markets in India.”

The deal follows an interesting pick up of activity and more importantly, funding in the battery space. We had reported earlier on Bengaluru based Log9 materials picking up Amara Raja batteries as a key investor.
