It excelled even more after the Fukushima nuclear disaster that sparked the awareness on the danger of the Fission Nuclear Energy. The Government halted all future nuclear plants construction with a plan to phase outs the rest who are still operational. This action has put more pressure on the renewable energy that helped make solar energy cheap. The latest statistic at the beginning of the summer Germany has already installed rooftop solar panels for over 1 million homes. This is a big achievement for a country that size that set the record to produce more energy that it might need. This created a problem what to do with the excess production. The grid operators had to pay to get rid of it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This excess must solve with a new direction by turning into energy storage solutions where the energy minister commissioned the installation of 100,000 homes with battery storage system that will be connected to the grid.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">These home energy devices will store the excess generated electricity and create a virtual power plant that will release the energy when needed after sunset when consumption is higher. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The German Solar Association is setting a new goal, in the next two year, to install more storage batteries to reach 200,000 households.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On the other end of the globe on the Australian continent in the Southern part of the country two milestones project were delivered the first was the delivery of Tesla\u2019s 100MV Power Plant. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">O<\/span><span lang=\"DE\" style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">n Fri 1 Dec 2017 <\/span><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">In the Australian Associated Press\u00a0announced:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cSouth Australia turns on Tesla&#8217;s 100MW battery: &#8216;History in the making&#8217;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Jay Weatherill marks the official launch as Elon Musk delivers on his promise to complete project within 100 days\u201d.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This 100MW capacity was intended to power 30,000 homes during blackout for up to an hour.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Before the German decided on the Grid storage project,<\/span><span lang=\"DE\" style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"> Australia<\/span><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"> was the world leader in the Lithium Ion battery\u00a0that was generating around 129 MWh.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"margin: 0px; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Another big project in\u00a0South Australia was to install Lithium-Ion Batteries with\u00a0solar panels for 50,000 homes.
