#Solar Important Part of Energy Mix in Australia olar is playing an increasingly important role in Australia energy mix,
said the CEO of the country Clean energy Finance Corporation, adding that both the residential and commercial solar industries are ramping up.
Oliver Yates, CEO of the Clean energy Finance Corporation (CEFC), spoke at the Australian Solar Council Solar 2015 Conference in Melbourne,

This practice, known as arbitrage has led to concerns at utilities which have levied large additional charges for equipment installations in some places.
when energy demand and prices are low. By charging when the power use is low, EVS can help flatten the typical load curve of the grid
That can help generators avoid the negative pricing when excess power reduces the real-time price of power to less than zero sometimes associated with excessive wind generation conditions.
Meanwhile, EVS can address the decreasing power sales utilities have been experiencing by adding what is a essentially another power-hungry appliance to their monthly bills.

The third-party, transparent accounting of these SRECS guarantees the energy you use through the device is real
In the late 1990s, the government created renewable energy credits (RECS) as a way to separate renewable from nonrenewable energy.
Serving as tradable environmental commodities, RECS represent proof that 1 megawatt-hour (MWH) of electricity was generated by an eligible renewable energy source.
but money goes to a solar power producer when you buy an SREC. Today SRECS are used primarily to help fund a portion of new solar projects.
and at prices considered unattractive by many consumers. For that reason, Sunport works with the nonprofit Rechoice to break down SRECS into more manageable pieces
or micro credits it calls Sunjoules. Partnering with Rechoice and using Sunjoules is unique to Sunport,
Moreover, for each dollar Rechoice spends to acquire SRECS, it spends a matching dollar to install new solar on other nonprofits,
which get free electricity from those installations. That way, each Sunjoule micro credit upgrades a little bit of power today, helps add a little more new solar production to the grid
and aids in powering worthy nonprofits for years to come. he use of micro credits through a Sunport,
multiplied by many users, over time causes a lot of good, adds Droege. So, in a nutshell, Sunport tracks the energy you use,
then syncs your account up with micro credits to upgrade your grid energy use to solar, based on the well established and regulated SREC market.

soon you'll be able drawing money out using your EYES: Retinal scanning to be trialled by Citigroup Citigroup is testing new technology that will allow customers to withdraw money using retinal scanning.
The bank wants to replace PIN codes with biometric scanners that could identify customers using only their eyes.
Customers would use a smartphone app to key in the amount they want to draw out ahead of time.
Citigroup said the retinal scans would take 15 seconds to complete compared to 45 seconds for traditional transactions.
The Wall st Journal reported that Citigroup has not set a date for when the retinal scanners would be introduced.
The bank may have to overcome privacy concerns as some customers may be uncomfortable giving their biometric data to such an institution.
Citigroup says it has been working with cash machine manufacturer Diebold and has confirmed that preliminary scanning tests have been carried out on 30 consumers in a laboratory at it head office in New york. The test cash machines do need not even a screen
or a touchpad as all the information is loaded by the app ahead of time. Citigroup is not the only financial institution testing out cardless cash machines-JP MORGAN CHASE

#Travelex'Supercard'points to lower consumer FX costs LONDON (Reuters)- Travelex (IPO-TUL. L) unveiled a new UK digital wallet
an important step by one of the big global players in foreign currency travel money to test out lower margins as existing business models come under threat.
Fuelled by the electronification of the $5 trillion a day global currency market, the World bank has aimed to reduce the cost of exchanging even small sums physically or electronically to less than 5 percent of the value of transactions.
The original deadline for that move has already been missed but those fees are falling steadily,
presenting difficult choices to those like Travelex, Western union (WU. N) or Moneygram (MGI. O) who have large retail networks built on higher transaction costs.
It allows British travellers to register up to five UK credit or debit cards which they then use to make payments while abroad electronically,
or through a plastic Supercard issued by Travelex. Crucially the only hard fee charged by the company is the 0. 25-0. 55 percent spreads Visa
