Big news in renewable energy! 🌞 Lightsource bp has started construction on their 330MWp Valle 3 and 4 solar cluster in Wamba, Valladolid, Spain, aiming for it to be operational by 2027. Highlights: - Expected to support local economies in Wamba, Ciguenuela, Zaratan, and Valladolid with about 450 construction jobs and seven permanent roles. Boosting local employment while greening the grid? Win-win! - Hosting an agrivoltaic pilot facility to manage regional crops like wheat, oats, soybeans, and rye, creating a sustainable synergy between agriculture and photovoltaics. Plus, Valle 3 and 4 have earned the Spanish Solar Photovoltaic Association's 'Seal of Excellence in Sustainability' for top socioeconomic, environmental, and circular economy standards! www.lsprenewables.com Storm.reed@lsprenewables.com #renewableenergy #solarenergy #sustainability

Is solar or wind the only renewable energy source? In agriculture-rich Southeast Asia, a new frontier is emerging — bio-LNG, a circular solution that converts agricultural and livestock waste into clean fuel for ships, factories and homes. “Chemically, bio-LNG is similar to fossil LNG. With that flexibility, bio-LNG can be used to replace fossil LNG at any time, without the need to overhaul existing facilities,” said Kelvin Wong, Managing Director, Global Head of Energy, Renewables & Infrastructure, DBS. Yet, scaling up remains a challenge. “Bio-LNG is still up to 70 per cent more expensive than conventional energy due to the lack of economies of scale and availability of mature technologies,” noted Eng Teh Koh, Executive Director, Strategic Advisory, DBS. 👉 Find out how DBS is financing and advising innovative projects to turn waste into renewable power: https://go.dbs.com/4qwYzJX #TransitionBankForAsia #AddOurStrengthToYours #PoweringNewPossibilities #DBS #SIEW2025 #EnergyTransition #CleanEnergy #Biomethane #BioLNG

We have signed a long-term agreement with Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. to supply renewable fuels in Barcelona. 🌍⚓ For 8 years, we will supply renewable marine fuels to NCLH's vessels across its cruise brands when calling at the Port of Barcelona. We will first supply biofuels and, starting in 2029, renewable methanol. The renewable methanol will be produced at our Ecoplanta facility in Tarragona, one of Europe’s pioneering projects to transform urban waste into renewable fuels and circular products—supporting decarbonization and promoting the circular economy. NCLH is the first company to sign an offtake agreement for renewable methanol from the Ecoplanta facility. This collaboration positions both companies at the forefront of the energy transition in the cruise and maritime sectors. “This milestone agreement highlights that renewable fuels are ready to play a key role in reducing the carbon footprint of the maritime sector,” said Juan Abascal, Repsol’s Executive Managing Director of Industrial Transformation and Circular Economy. With this partnership, we demonstrate how cross-industry collaboration can accelerate the path to Net Zero, proving that renewable fuels are a scalable, real-world solution for reducing emissions today. https://lnkd.in/dNYfnw8y

Proud to share that we’ve signed a landmark eight-year agreement with Repsol to supply renewable marine fuels for our ships calling at the Port of Barcelona. This partnership puts us at the forefront of sustainable progress in the cruise industry, securing access to renewable fuels like biofuels and renewable methanol and advancing our Sail & Sustain strategy. It’s a meaningful step toward a lower-carbon future, made possible by strong collaboration and shared purpose. Thank you to our partners at repsol and our team led by Anshul Tuteja and Lory Urdaneta for making this possible! 

Green Fuel Milestone - The official inauguration of the Kassø e-methanol facility in Aabenraa, Denmark, marks a pivotal step in efforts to decarbonize industries that have been slow to transition away from fossil fuels. Positioned next to Northern Europe’s largest solar park, the new plant is producing e-methanol on a commercial scale for the first time in the world, and it is already supplying major companies committed to cutting their carbon footprint. A first in commercial-scale e-methanol The facility, owned by Solar Park Kassø ApS and operated by European Energy in collaboration with Mitsui & Co., will produce 42,000 tonnes of e-methanol annually. Unlike […]

US-based Bringia Energy Global (BEG) and Canada’s Disruptive Hydrogen Technology (DHT) have signed an MoU to establish a large-scale waste-to-fuel facility in Bangladesh’s principal port city of Chattogram. Under the agreement, BEG and DHT will jointly process about 3,000 t/d of municipal waste supplied by the city to generate between 45 million to 60 million gallons of renewable green diesel and aviation fuel annually. This will be the first of its kind of in the whole of Asia. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eUKUZRP6

Australian clean energy technology recycling solutions company Livium has completed a $4.5 million capital raise to fuel its expansion strategy, including driving battery collection growth and accelerating its solar panel recycling plans. #BatteryStorage #Australia #PVProjects

The Race to Recycle Renewable Energy Massive waste from old wind turbines, solar panels, and EV batteries threatens the green transition’s sustainability goals. Companies are developing innovative recycling solutions, from reusing turbine blades to recovering metals from old solar panels and batteries. Expanding recycling capacity and enforcing stronger waste regulations are vital to creating a circular, low-carbon energy economy. https://lnkd.in/dQcBN7_U
