Renewable energy
Transporting fuel and oil to Antarctica is a costly and sometimes risky exercise. Before the introduction of renewable energy systems, Australian stations required 2.1 megalitres of diesel fuel every year for power and heating. Burning this fuel emitted around 5,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide into the Antarctic environment.
Mapping Renewable Energy among Antarctic Research Stations
This paper presents an overview of current electricity generation and consumption patterns in the Antarctic. Based on both previously published and newly collected data, the paper describes the current status of renewable-energy use at research stations in the Antarctic. A more detailed view of electricity systems is also presented, demonstrating how

How to Pick the Best Solar Energy Storage System
The best energy storage system for solar panels lies in lithium-ion batteries. These batteries excel due to their higher efficiency, longer lifespans, better depth of discharge (DoD), and greater energy density compared to other types of batteries, such as lead-acid for example. While lithium-ion batteries carry more expensive upfront costs
