Why and When Does a Solar Panel Brand Matter or Not?
Along with the warranty, youll need to consider the companys ability to honor its warranty. Is the company (either the installer or the panel maker) an established player in the industry? If not, its hard to know how reliable and stable the brand will be
AC Solar Modules
Integrating the module and the inverter is a natural evolution. In the PC industry, silicon semiconductor components have been continuously integrated to reduce manufacturing cost, reduce complexity, and simplify the customer experience.
Harnessing the Energy of the Sun for a Sustainable Tomorrow
When looking at potential solutions to becoming more self reliant/sustainable with energy, the conversation needs to begin with taking a hard look on how energy is being used today. There are several outside the box solutions that naturally lend themselves to sustainability
Electricity from all forms of renewables will be consistently cheaper than fossil fuels by 2020
Akshat Rathi for Quartz: Renewable electricity is already competitive with fossil-fuel power. Better still, the report makes the extraordinary prediction: By 2020, all forms of renewable electricity will be consistently cheaper than power produced by burning fossil fuels.
Runaway 53GW Solar Boom in China Pushed Global Clean Energy Investment Ahead in 2017
World clean energy investment totalled $333.5 billion last year, up 3% from 2016 and the second highest annual figure ever, taking cumulative investment since 2010 to $2.5 trillion
St. Eustatius: 100% Solar Power in the Caribbean
The diesel generators can be switched off completely during the day. This is unnoticed by electricity consumers but has huge benefits for the electric utility company and the region - and a pioneer for more diesel-free zones worldwide.
Extending the Life of Wind Turbine Components
Specialized PVD coatings and nitriding significantly increase the durability and lifespan of wind turbine components like roller bearings and planetary gears under metal-on-metal, high load conditions
Learning From Solar's Past Mistakes to Ensure a Brighter Future
There is no doubting the magnitude of opportunity facing the global solar industry now and in the coming years. However, the industry must reflect on past failures and put in place processes which ensure they are not repeated.
Denmark Positions Itself as the Flag Bearer for Wind Power
Peter Levring for Bloomberg Technology: Denmark obtained 43.4 percent of its electricity from wind last year, beating its own record. The governments goal is to derive 50 percent of the countrys entire energy consumption from renewables by 2030.
A Fully Solar-Powered Car May Be Hitting the Road by 2019
Chelsea Gohd for Futurism: Solar-powered cars have been thought of by many as an impossible pipedream. But the innovators behind Lightyear One, a fully solar-powered vehicle to be released in 2019, just won an award for their design.
10 Predictions for Community Solar in 2018
Clean Energy Collective (CEC), the nations leading community solar developer and solutions provider, forecast what is on the horizon for community solar. CECs experts offer the following 10 predictions for 2018.
World's Largest Offshore Wind Farm Could Send Power to Five Countries
Lorraine Chow for EcoWatch: The vision is so massive that the developers will have to construct a 2.3-square-mile artificial island in the North Sea to support the 10,000-turbine complex.
Be Inspired By Impressive Solar Facilities
With ever-increasing panel efficiency, gross installation costs at under $4 a watt, and available tax credits to help defray the cost, there's never been a better time to consider this technology.
Florida company using 'solar cell of the future' to develop 500W, ~24% efficient panel
John Fitzgerald Weaver for Electrek: SmartWire is part of an industry wide remaking of 'busbars. In order to squeeze greater efficiency from the same limited rooftop space, an evolution on the front side of the solar panel has been sped up.
