The year 2013 witnessed some significant milestones in renewable power generation and transmission, inculding the opening of some of the world's biggest wind, solar and bio-gasification plants. Power-technology.com picks the ten biggest clean energy developments from 2013. The London Array, the world's biggest offshore wind farm, at 630MW installed capacity was opened in July 2013.
The Gaza Power Plant exploded into flames on 29th July. It is believed to have been hit by multiple shells fired by an Israeli tank, though Israel have yet to accept responsibility for it.
Supplying power to offshore platforms from land-based plants could have a major impact on the industry's carbon emissions. Norway is the world leader in the laying of subsea cables to power offshore facilities, but a recent disagreement over the electrification of the Utsira High region has sparked a new debate over how and where to make use of this promising technology.
Rodenhuize power station is an 180MW biomass-fuelled plant located in Ghent, Belgium. The plant was converted from a coal-fired unit called Rodenhuize 4 into a 100% biomass unit.
India's largest power utility NTPC has plans to use biomass to co-fire all its coal-based power plants. The decision is a bold move that will reduce the company's overall carbon emissions, but what challenges might it face during implementation and how will the change impact India's overall energy mix?

There are many energy conservation tips taken to have the green power in your surrounding region. Also the charges for the fossil fuels are increasing a lot and creates harm for the environment too.
In a boon for the local solar industry, a team of researchers from Swinburne University of Technology and Suntech Power Holdings have developed the world's most efficient broadband nanoplasmonic solar cells with an absolute efficiency of 8.1 per cent.
California Valley Solar Ranch (CVSR) is a 250MW solar photovoltaic (PV) power project developed in San Luis Obispo County, California, US. Construction of the project started in September 2011 and full commercial operations began in October 2013.
Labelled as the largest, cleanest and most efficient coal-fired power station in the UK, the 4,000MW Drax plant supplies around 7% of the UK's electricity needs.
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) in the US has approved a $590m (€482.1m) electric transmission project that will assist in enhancing the Houston region's import capacity from other parts of the state.
The upcoming Teesside energy-from-waste (EfW) plant at Teesside in the United Kingdom will use innovative technology to generate 49MW of green energy from residual municipal and commercial waste. The power project, whose groundbreaking is scheduled for 2014 and operation commencement scheduled for 2016, is being developed under a build, own, operate and transfer (BOOT) contract for Merseyside and Halton Waste Partnership (MHWP).
In January this year Iceland's National Energy Authority announced it had created the world's first magma-based geothermal energy system after drilling 1.3 miles through the earth's crust and hitting magma - only the second time magma has ever been reached. We find out how the project is progressing six months on and whether the project could be replicated anywhere else.
The Peterhead power station, located in Aberdeenshire on the north-east coast of Scotland, will be the world's first gas-fired power station to host a full-chain carbon capture and storage (CCS) project on a commercial scale.
