Increasing Sustainable Energy
Renewable energy is a practical, affordable solution to our electricity needs. By ramping up renewable energy, we can:
- Reduce air pollution
- Cut global warming emissions
- Create new jobs and industries
- Diversify our power supply
- Decrease dependence on coal, oil and other fossil fuels
- Move the world towards a cleaner, healthier energy future
Renewable energy is reliable, affordable, and beneficial for our health, our economy, and our environment.
Renewable energy is growing rapidly, with record numbers of new wind and solar installations coming online every year. We can readily continue this rapid expansion of renewable energy by utilizing existing technologies, investing in improvements to our electricity system, and making smart policy decisions that move the country toward a clean energy future.
WE USE THE STRENGHT OF THE WIND, THE FORCE OF THE WATER AND THE HEAT OF THE SUN AND PUT THEM TO WORL WITH BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY THAT UNLEASHES THEIR TRUE POSSIBILITIES. COMBING WIND, HYDROELECTRIC POWER AND INNOVATIVE SOLAR TECHNOLOGIES; INFRAPOWER HAS SUPPORTED MORE THAN 45+ GIGAWATTS CAPACITY TO MAKE THE WORLD WORK BETTER AND CLEANER.
New Energy Solutions
Leveraging new energy solutions
Together with several partners INFRAPOWER is developing new business models and already started several pilot projects focused on renewable energy production, storage and applications.
These applications deliver their full potential when they are combined to decentralized systems. Such decentralized systems compensate each other in case of volatile energy production and are already a reality today. Energy production and power storage in one grid play an important role in energy supply, as they constantly feed energy into the power grid without any disorder or the use of expensive central grids.
Grid-independent systems are microgrids. To ensure security of supply and price stability, these microgrids require energy storage. If the power goes out in a large central grid, a microgrid can continue to supply electricity. If the systems are connected to the grid for safety, they can be disconnected if necessary. The advantage of microgrids is that, unlike a central grid, they are not dependent on a universal, fast communication capability between the different network levels and elements.
Wind Power
Investing in wind power technology
At Infrapower, evolution is at our core, and we are continuously working to take sustainable energy to its next big step. Therefore we entered the wind turbine market with the aim to make wind power affordable and availabe for every one. In 2012 we therefore started investing in several wind power turbines to offer increased value to customers with proven performance, reliability and availability.
Solar Power
Setting solar power and photovoltaics on track
Believing in the enormous potential of solar power, Infrapower began in 2009 investing in upcoming technology companies. Togehter with these, we were aiming at making solar power technologies more efficient and practicable for an economical and ecological use. Since then, we managed to become one of the leading partners in this branch, when it comes to investing in solar power projects.
For example, together with Jinko Solar we managed to significantly reduce the costs of solar module production, making the total cost of solar power and coal-fired electricity equivalent. This has accelerated the popularization of solar power and made clean energy available to the general public.
Hydro Power
Faciliate hydro power for millions
Hydro plants have the capability to deliver maximum performance and reliability at very low emissions. Therefore they can secure and fulfill the expectations of millions of customers, such as individuals, companies or nations.
Our investment portfolio covers a variety of hydro power plants, from high and low head to storage and run-of-river, to offer the demanded energy in a clean and afforable way.
Power Storage
We are driving new storage solutions.
BYD, as the world’s leading producer of rechargeable batteries, owns the complete supply chain layout from mineral battery cells to battery packs including consumer electronics, new energy vehicles and energy storage. Therefore BYD is the ideal partner for developing new storage solutions that have the potential to change the global energy market.
Relying on their advanced iron-phosphate battery technology, BYD can meet the needed requirements for energy storage, peak-load shifting and peak load/frequency regulation. Improving supporting facilities for renewable energy generation, promoting ancillary service for the power market, and aiding the transition to clean energy worldwide, are our contributions in supporting BYD building a clean and sustainable future.
