Energy Global

Tuesday has rolled back around again so let's head somewhere new with Energy Global. 🌏 This week's #TravelTuesday takes us to Wales, where ENGIE and La Caisse Nationale d’Epargne et de Prévoyance-Banque have selected GE Vernova for the next phase of modernisation/replanting of the Dinorwig pumped storage hydropower plant in North Wales, UK. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Now over 40 years old, Dinorwig is Europe’s largest pumped storage hydropower plant and is renowned for its rapid response capability, delivering up to 1320 MW of power within 12 seconds from standby, and up to 1800 MW in under a minute. With such characteristics, this plant plays a vital role in grid resilience and frequency response, providing a capacity equivalent to power around 1 million homes in the UK. ⚡ The modernisation forms part of one of the UK's largest hydro refurbishment and replanting programme, helping to strengthen long-term grid resilience and support the integration of renewable energy in the UK's evolving electricity system. 🛠️ Read the full new story on our website here 🔗 https://lnkd.in/esyGfWFB #Hydropower #Renewables #Energy #Wales #TravelTuesday #EnergyGlobal

We’ve made it halfway through the working week! To celebrate, here's this week's #WednesdayWisdom 🧐 Today, we're looking at the Netherlands 🇳🇱 to learn lessons about global grid congestion. In an article for Energy Global, Hans de Heer, Principal Consultant, Energy Markets and Strategy, Energy Systems at DNV, outlines how a lack of grid infrastructure is putting the brakes on the global energy industry’s progress. DNV's Energy Industry Insights 2026, drawn from a survey of 1095 senior energy professionals across 96 countries, found that 77% of renewables respondents and 73% of electrical power respondents believe grid infrastructure cannot yet adequately connect renewable sources to areas of high demand. Among electrical power professionals, 91% say greater investment in the power grid is urgently needed. How does the Dutch case offer a concentrated version of the European challenge and a perfect example of a problem that is not merely consigned to the Netherlands?
