NanoMarkets Report Projects Solar-Energy Storage Market to Reach Almost $2 Billion in 2018

Leave a comment

NanoMarkets has published a new report titled, “Solar Storage Markets – 2013.” This report forecasts revenues from batteries and supercapacitors for solar energy storage will reach almost $2 billion (USD) in revenues by 2018.

Glen Allen, Virginia – January 16, 2013 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has published a new report titled, “Solar Storage Markets – 2013.” This report forecasts revenues from batteries and supercapacitors for solar energy storage will reach almost $2 billion (USD) in revenues by 2018. Additional details about the report are available at: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/solar_storage_2013.

About the Report:

This new NanoMarkets report provides an analysis of worldwide solar energy storage markets products including lead-acid, lead-carbon, lithium, NaS, sodium-nickel-chloride, and flow batteries, along with ultrabatteries and supercapacitors. Storage demand for both retail PV users and utility-scale solar is analyzed. Eight-year revenue and volume projections are included with breakouts by technology, and geography. Also included are profiles of leading-edge solar storage installations around the world.

Companies discussed include: Abengoa Solar, Acciona, AES, Altair, Ambri, Axion, Brightsource, Cellenium, Cellstrom, Cogenra Solar, CSIRO, Daewoo, Deeya Energy, Ecoult, EDF, Endesa, eSolar, Exide, Fiamm Sonik, Firefly, Ford, GE, GeoBattery, Gildmeister, Hitachi, Ice Energy, International Battery, Johnson Controls, KEMA, Kyushu Electric, Maxwell, Mitsubishi, NEC, Nesscap, NGK, Panasonic, PG&E, Pratt & Whitney, Premium Power, Prudent Energy, RWE, SAFT, Siemens, Southern California Edison, RedT, Sumitomo, SunPower, SunVerge, SolarCity, Tokyo Electric, V-Fuel, VARTA, Xtreme Power and ZBB.

From the report:

Despite the considerable technological innovation expected in energy storage, traditional lead-acid batteries will be the main revenue generator for solar energy storage over the next decade, accounting for more than $950 million in revenues in 2018. They are readily available and low cost, yet have poor lifetimes and are becoming commoditized products. Lead-carbon technology will improve the margins on this type of battery and will be used in solar farms and solar-based microgrid and will generate another $135 million by 2018.

There is also a growing level of interest in the use of lithium batteries in the solar sector and sales of these batteries are expected to generate $235 million by 2018. Lithium batteries are already being sold for residential and solar-power microgrid applications in the U.S. and in Germany. And in the next few years, Chinese solar energy storage firms seem likely to focus on lithium batteries given that China is a major source of lithium. Nonetheless, NanoMarkets believes that the future of lithium batteries will depend heavily on continued government R&D subsidies. Otherwise in most countries, lithium batteries are likely to remain too expensive for solar applications.

Feed-in tariffs are declining in key geographies giving PV users an incentive to store the energy they produce. Battery suppliers are therefore expecting the market for batteries for residential PV users to explode and are designing specialized systems to meet the demand. Meanwhile in California, utilities are facing regulatory requirements to include storage in new facilities. Similar regulations may come into force in Germany. NanoMarkets expects such regulatory requirements to produce new demand for the latest battery technologies for utility-scale PV and thermal solar facilities; above the storage at solar utilities that would be required just to maintain grid stability.

About NanoMarkets:

NanoMarkets tracks and analyzes emerging market opportunities in energy, solid-state lighting, electronics and other markets created by developments in advanced materials. The firm is a recognized leader in industry analysis and forecasts for both the energy storage and the solar energy industry and has been covering this market for more seven years.

Leave a comment

On Your Key Ring Or Attached To Your Pocketbook, When You Leave Home, MemClickTM Leaves With You.

Marietta, GA (USA), January 16, 2013 — ExackTM LLC has launch its new high quality digital mini voice recorder, MemClickTM ( http://www.memclick.biz ). At $29.95, it fills the niche between expensive voice recorders and toys. On a key ring or attached to a pocketbook, it’s always available. Simple to use, with one finger, it can make a voice recording or playback high quality sound, at controllable levels anywhere. No need to plug it into a computer to play back. Made to be hung on a car key ring, slipped into a pocket or purse or hung on a hook beside a bed, this very small voice recorder measures only 2½ inches high, 1¼ inches wide and a ½ inch thick and weighs less than 1 oz. MemClick records up to 8 minutes and you can instantly locate notes from three folders (red, yellow and green) with lighted buttons and play them back. It can record up to 60 memos on a single battery charge that will last for weeks. The MemClick, manufactured in the USA, connects to any USB port for recharging (rechargeable battery and USB cable are included).

There are basically two types of portable voice recorders, cassette and digital. Digital voice recorders are much easier to use than cassettes, because there‘s no need to rewind them endlessly to find a particular recorded section to play back and there’s no tape to jam or wear out as with other cassette audio recorders. And MemClick records or plays without having to look at it while driving. But what good is any audio recorder, if you don’t have it with you when you need it?

The uses for MemClick are endless.
* Memory help for Alzheimer’s support, short term memory loss or stroke victims
* Make lists; shopping list, honey-do list, measurements and many more.
* On car key rings, Record driving directions; have detailed instructions all the way; On-the-go memos to yourself; Contact information.
* Never spend time in the rain again hunting for a car in a crowded parking lot. Record the row location.
* Hang it on a refrigerator as a family member locator. Each family member can leave an intended destination and return time.
* In bed, no need to hunt paper and pen, place it on a night-stand for bed-side notes, phone numbers, and ideas.
* Keep it with the TV remote to note TV ad info such as advertised product phone number and web site address.
* The MemClick makes a perfect trade show promotional give-away or gift and is also for people who have everything, but can’t remember where they left it.

To make MemClick more accessible, one accessory available is an extension/retraction cord. The cord holder clips easily with a spring-loaded clip to anything. The key ring nylon cord extends out 24″. It has a latch with an easy spring release. A split key ring is attached. It is manufactured from metal and plastic. The dimensions are (approx): 1-3/8″ wide, 2-1/4″ long and 1/2″ thick. The price is $4.95 and includes shipping.

MemClick all began with the idea for an easy and quick way to remember all of those little things in life that get lost in the busyness of life. After searching the stores and trying multiple devices out there, he discovered that there wasn’t anything that really helped. So, an experienced engineer and inventor with several patents under his belt began to try to create that very thing right out of his basement. With the input of many other really smart people, MemClick was born and suddenly remembering things became a whole lot easier.

Forestry carbon cash boost could ‘help drive forest REDD+ scheme’ claims FRA

Leave a comment

The news that the World Bank’s Forestry Carbon Fund has been boosted by an impressive $180 million in funding, has been welcomed by FRA.

Seattle, United States, January 16, 2013 — The news that the World Bank’s Forestry Carbon Fund has been boosted by an impressive $180 million in funding, has been welcomed by Forestry Research Associates (FRA).

The research and analysis consultancy, specialising in sustainable forestry investments, claims that the extra funding will help improve chances of improving sustainability in countries like Indonesia and Brazil. “Some of these regions are still heavily reliant on the income they get from illegal forestry and being able to offer cash incentives for keeping their forests alive is a major boost to efforts to reduce deforestation.” Stated Peter Collins, FRA’s analysis partner.

The funding will go towards the Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF), which pays compensation to communities in developing countries that protect their forests. The extra cash came from Norway, Germany and Finland in an effort to further boost the REDD+ aforestation program.

World Bank vice president for sustainable development, Rachel Kyte, said that the funding is necessary to ensure the move against deforestation continues, “Forests continue to be lost as efforts to get the world on a greener, low-carbon growth path struggle to increase in speed and scale to meet the climate challenges ahead.”

Other support came from Norway’s special envoy for international climate change policy, Hans Brattskar, who explained, “REDD+ needs to move from planning to large scale action already in this decade if we are to maintain the two degree goal.”

Mr Collins added, “We agree that the extra funding is needed to drive the REDD+ program forward in order to keep up with the growing threat of climate change and the impact this is having on some of the most vulnerable communities in the world.”

“The Carbon Fund will bring countries and companies together to create early demand for forest carbon with strong safeguards,” added Brattskar.

Chi-X Co-Founder, Hirander Misra, to Speak at Golden Networking’s High-Frequency Trading Conference

Leave a comment

Golden Networking brings the World’s Most Influential High-Frequency Trading Conference Series, High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 London, March 21 (www.High-Frequency-Trading.info).

New York City, NY, USA (January 16, 2013) — Mr. Hirander Misra, Chairman of Forum Trading Solutions, will call for stricter exchange controls in the wake of “flash crash” events at Golden Networking‘s upcoming High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 London, “Strategic and Tactical Insights for Investors, Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges”, March 21, forum that will provide attendees in London with the most up-to-date review of where this ever-changing industry stands through an inspiring keynote speeches and thought-provoking panels with leaders in the field:

– Professor Alex Preda, Professor of Accounting, Accountability and Financial Management, King’s College
– Mr. Chris Skinner, Chairman, Financial Services Club
– Mr. Edgar Perez, Author, The Speed Traders
– Ms. Izabella Kaminska, Blogger, FT Alphaville
– Dr. Magrino Bini, Statistical Arbitrage Portfolio Manager, Millennium Partners
– Professor Oliver Linton, Chair of Political Economy, Cambridge University
– Mr. Philip Stafford, FT Trading Room Deputy Editor, Financial Times
– Mr. Philippe Guillot, Executive Director of the Markets Division, Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF)
– Mr. Sam Tyfield, Partner, Katten Muchin Rosenman UK LLP
– Professor Walter Distaso, Professor of Financial Econometrics, Imperial College London

Mr. Hirander is the Chairman of trading technology provider Forum Trading Solutions and Managing Director of Misra Ventures, a consultancy providing specialist senior level advisory services helping firms deliver change in market structure, trading and regulatory compliance.

Previously he was a Co-Founder and the Chief Operating Officer of Chi-X Europe Ltd, instrumental in taking the company from concept to successful launch. Established in 2007 by Nomura Holdings subsidiary Instinet, Chi-X Europe was eventually owned by a consortium of major global financial institutions including BNP Paribas, Citadel, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Fortis, GETCO Europe Ltd, Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, Optiver, Société Générale and UBS. When it launched, Chi-X Europe was the first multilateral trading facility that launched in anticipation of the European Union’s November 2007 Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID), which paved the way for the introduction of alternative trading venues in Europe. At the time of Mr. Hirander’s departure in February 2010, Chi-X Europe was the second largest equities trading venue in Europe, just behind the LSE Group and was subsequently sold to BATS Global Markets in November 2011 for $365M.

Earlier in his career, Mr. Hirander held a variety of roles in the electronic trading space during his 8 year tenure with Instinet, most notably SVP Head of Product Development and Head of the European Exchange Linkages Group, delivering Instinet, Europe’s direct exchange connectivity product suite, and launching the first European Smart Order Routing system.

Mr. Hirander has continuously urged for stronger exchange-level controls to halt trading in India to avoid a repeat of the crash that occurred on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) in October 2012. “Algo trading and HFT isn’t inherently bad. It’s not the volume of orders that’s the problem, it’s about having the right level of monitoring and controls in the core system. Any well-designed modern system with the right checks in place should be able to handle high volumes and unexpected market events.” The India flash crash drew parallels to the 2010 US flash crash that saw the Dow Jones Industrial Average to plunge by 9% within five minutes, due to an unconstrained algo trade deployed by a mutual fund, only to recover the majority of losses 20 minutes later.

High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013, “Strategic and Tactical Insights for Investors, Speed Traders, Brokers and Exchanges” will bring insights for investors and speed traders who need to protect and refine their competitive advantage in a world dominated by algorithmic and high-frequency trading. Recognized practitioners, regulators, experts, and strategists will return to High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 to provide attendees with the information they are looking for in an open and unbiased environment, highly conducive to the most efficient and effective networking.

Topics that will be discussed at High-Frequency Trading Leaders Forum 2013 include the movement toward emerging markets, every time more attuned to the use of bots, the regulatory environment, how new technologies are changing the game, including a look at the upcoming regulatory changes that no doubt will be precipitated by Knight Capital’s trading glitch.
