So, it comes as welcome news to Good Motoring that new approaches to the charging process are being explored – and that includes using power naturally generated by wind turbines. One of the first forecourts to offer this technology in the UK is based in Wales and has recently been opened by Infinite Renewables, a Welsh-based company that specialises in the design, development and management of renewable energy schemes.

Infinite Renewables were awarded the Development Fund for their project ‘Powering the Future of Film for a low carbon future’. Infinite Renewables is a Wales-based specialist renewable energy developer that designs and installs renewable energy systems across the UK and internationally. They are keen to explore alternatives to diesel generators on site and plan to develop a renewable mobile energy generator for the media sector.

The six winners will be invited, along with class members to The Royal Mint Experience where they will strike their own coins and discover some of the ways The Royal Mint is working towards a more sustainable future.

A bespoke workshop will introduce pupils to the Royal Mint’s colourful wind turbine, Delilah which was installed by Infinite in 2018 and is part of a multi-technology Local Energy Centre which is under construction at the site.

Using a scale, working model of the turbine, the pupils will explore how it is used to generate energy that helps power The Royal Mint.  Currently, Delilah supplies up to 10% of the Royal Mint’s demand at its site in Llantrisant. Pupils will be able to interact with the model and discover ways of making the turbine work more efficiently. They will also build their own miniature working turbines to take home.

The competition will be judged by the naturalist and broadcaster Iolo Williams who will meet all six individual winners at The Royal Mint Experience, later in the year.

The competition closes on the 27^th of January 2023 with the Winners announced on the 28^th of February 2023. The school visits will take place during the Spring / Summer of 2023.

For more information, including catchment areas and how to express an interest in competing, please contact Jenny Daley at Infinite before the 18^th of November 2022.

Mewn partneriaeth â’r The Royal Mint ac i nodi llwyddiant prosiect ynni adnewyddadwy pum mlynedd o hyd, mae Infinite yn gwahodd dosbarthiadau Blwyddyn 6 mewn ysgolion ym mhob un o’i chwe talgylch Canolfan Ynni Lleol yn ne Cymru i greu poster ‘Ynni Glân’ dwyieithog. Nod y gystadleuaeth yw helpu plant i ddeall cysyniad a manteision amgylcheddol ynni glân wrth i Gymru symud tuag at ddyfodol Di-Garbon.

Gwahoddir y chwe enillydd, ynghyd ag aelodau dosbarth i The Royal Mint Experience lle byddant yn streicio eu darnau arian eu hunain ac yn darganfod rhai o’r ffyrdd y mae The Royal Mint yn gweithio tuag at ddyfodol mwy cynaliadwy.

Bydd gweithdy pwrpasol yn cyflwyno disgyblion i Delilah – tyrbin gwynt lliwgar The Royal Mint, a gafodd ei osod gan Infinite yn 2018 ag sy’n rhan o Ganolfan Ynni Lleol aml-dechnoleg sy’n cael ei hadeiladu ar y safle.

Gan ddefnyddio model o’r tyrbin sy’n gweithio ac ar raddfa, bydd y disgyblion yn archwilio sut mae’n cael ei ddefnyddio i gynhyrchu ynni sy’n helpu i bweru The Royal Mint. Ar hyn o bryd, mae Delilah yn cyflenwi hyd at 10% o alw The Royal Mint yn Llantrisant. Bydd disgyblion yn gallu rhyngweithio â’r model a darganfod ffyrdd o wneud i’r tyrbin weithio’n fwy effeithlon. Fe fyddan nhw hefyd yn adeiladu  tyrbinau bach sy’n gweithio i fynd adref gyda nhw.

Bydd y gystadleuaeth yn cael ei beirniadu gan y naturiaethwr a’r darlledwr Iolo Williams a fydd yn cyfarfod â phob un o’r chwe enillydd unigol yn The Royal Mint Experience, yn nes ymlaen yn y flwyddyn.

Bydd y gystadleuaeth yn cau ar y 27ain o Ionawr 2023 gyda’r Enillwyr yn cael eu cyhoeddi ar y 28ain o Chwefror 2023. Bydd yr ymweliadau ysgol yn cael eu cynnal yn ystod y Gwanwyn/Haf 2023.

I gael rhagor o wybodaeth, gan gynnwys manylion am y talgylchoedd a sut i fynegi diddordeb mewn cystadlu, cysylltwch â Jenny Daley yn Infinite cyn y 18fed o Dachwedd 2022 os gwelwch yn dda.

The project will bring together specialists in the renewable energy field – development, technical and finance, to build a multi technology Local Energy Centre on the site in Llantrisant. The Centre will incorporate a 2MW Solar Farm on adjacent land which in itself is forecast to provide 2.4GWh of annual generation directly to TRM.  Wind, hydrogen-ready Combined Heat & Power (CHP) and battery storage form the mix of other technologies used.

The Local Energy Centre project in Wales will include 800kW of energy storage, with the lithium/lead-acid split subject to further analysis of TRM’s demand profile.

The energy storage system will combine the “fast response” of the lithium battery with the “endurance” of lead-acid.

The containerised energy storage scheme (ESS) will comprise of a dual-chemistry ADEPT system developed by Infinite in partnership with GS Yuasa and the University of Sheffield.

The system will be connected to a 2MW solar farm, a wind turbine and a hydrogen-ready Combined Heat & Power (CHP) system.

The Centre is expected to be operational by Autumn 2022.

The post Renewables firm to deliver hybrid lead and lithium-ion ESS as part of wider micro grid appeared first on Infinite Renewables.

The centre is one of up to seven local energy centre schemes under a ‘Generation Storage Consumption Supply’ project in Wales being grant funded by the European Regional Development Fund.

It comprises a combination of lead and lithium batteries to back up power generated by a 1MWh rooftop solar array at GS Yuasa’s battery factory, and in a second stage a wind turbine will be installed to supply electricity directly to the site.

The solar panels supply around 5% of the factory’s needs, and excess energy will be stored in the hybrid battery system, which will be housed in a battery container to complete the microgrid.

“The project brings a number of benefits to our Ebbw Vale factory and the wider Rassau Industrial Estate,” said Shaun Gardner, managing director of GS Yuasa Manufacturing UK.

“The unique combination of our lithium and lead-acid batteries, the latter of which are produced on site in South Wales, allows for the storage of greener energy, generated by either solar or wind, to be used at a later date.”

Forward: features are independent pieces written for Mewburn Ellis discussing and celebrating the best of innovation and exploration from the scientific and entrepreneurial worlds.

The global population is growing, and so is the demand for power – but growing just as quickly is the realisation that fossil fuels must be cut out of the generation equation.

Concerns around climate change and pollution have prompted countries around the world to turn to renewable sources for a greater proportion of their energy needs. It’s necessary in order to ‘free the environment of fossil fuel contamination, especially in the most populated cities around the world,’ explains Professor Maria Helena Braga, head of the engineering physics department at the University of Porto. ‘China, for example, is pushing the electrification of society, as it is impossible to breathe well in big cities such as Beijing.’
