The share of solar generation with co-located battery storage is increasing

The share of solar generation with co-located battery storage is increasing

Utility-scale solar developers are increasingly co-locating battery storage with new solar photovoltaic capacity. As of September 2026, over 16% of new utility-scale solar capacity added this year is co-located with operable battery storage, compared with 2% in 2017, according to data reported to EIA by operators.

LNG imports make up increasing share of Colombia's natural gas supply

LNG imports make up increasing share of Colombia's natural gas supply

Colombia is importing more liquefied natural gas (LNG) as domestic production continues to fall. A potential drought this fall and winter could limit the availability of hydroelectric generation and boost the country's demand for natural gas power generation. Colombia's government has declared a national disaster in anticipation of a drought resulting from an expected strong El Niño.

U.S. refineries have been running at very high rates in 2026

U.S. refineries have been running at very high rates in 2026

The U.S. refinery fleet has run at higher-than-normal rates this year, with refinery utilization averaging more than 95% of capacity between May and September, the highest for those months since 1998. Tight global product supplies this year have boosted margins for petroleum products, particularly for diesel, incentivizing the increased run rates.

Hybrid sales rise while battery electric sales remain lower after tax credit expiration

Hybrid sales rise while battery electric sales remain lower after tax credit expiration

In the third quarter of 2026 (3Q26), 23% of new light-duty vehicles sold in the United States were hybrid electric, battery electric, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, down slightly from 24% in 3Q25. Between 3Q25 and 3Q26, hybrid electric vehicles continued to gain market share, reaching 16% of light-duty vehicle sales. Growth of hybrid electric vehicle sales has slowed this quarter as the average transaction price for a new vehicle passed $50,000-the first time this price has been reached so far this year, according to Kelley Blue Book.

U.S. small-scale solar generation has quadrupled in the last decade

U.S. small-scale solar generation has quadrupled in the last decade

We estimate that U.S. generation from small-scale or rooftop solar photovoltaic systems (smaller than 1 megawatt of capacity) has increased from 18,812 gigawatthours (GWh) to 92,979 GWh over the last decade. The four states with the highest generation of small-scale solar in the country-California, Arizona, Texas, and Florida-are in regions with more abundant solar resources. Even though it is in a region with lower solar resources, New York ranks as the fifth-largest rooftop solar generation producer as a result of capacity growth supported by technology improvements and state incentives.

To set up Appium on your notebook, you’ll need to meet the following requirements:

Operating System:
- Appium supports macOS, Linux, and Windows operating systems. Ensure your notebook runs one of these.
Node.js and NPM:
- Install Node.js (version in the SemVer range ^14.17.0 || ^16.13.0 || >=18.0.0).
- NPM (Node Package Manager) is usually bundled with Node.js, but you can upgrade it independently. Make sure your NPM version is >= 8.
Appium Installation:
- Install Appium globally using NPM:
```
npm install -g appium
```
Appium Server:
- Start the Appium server by running:
```
appium
```
- If you see output like “[Appium] Welcome to Appium v2.0.0,” the server is up and running ¹ ².
Additional Dependencies:
- To automate a specific platform (e.g., Android or iOS), refer to the documentation of the corresponding Appium driver(s) for any additional dependencies.
- Typically, you’ll need the developer toolchain and SDKs specific to the platform you’re testing ¹.

Remember to adapt the installation steps to your specific environment. Happy testing! 🚀📱

The disk space requirements for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm are relatively modest:

Appium:
- By itself, Appium is lightweight and doesn’t have significant disk space requirements.
- It can even run in resource-constrained environments like Raspberry Pi, as long as Node.js is available.
- No specific disk space quota is needed for Appium alone.
Node.js and npm:
- Node.js and npm are essential for running Appium.
- The installation of Node.js and npm doesn’t consume much disk space.
- However, ensure you have enough space for other development tools and dependencies.

In summary, a few gigabytes of free space should suffice for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm on your notebook. Happy testing! 🚀📱
