Solar Analysis: What is it & How Does it Work
Solar analysis is a comprehensive assessment of a location's solar potential. It involves the evaluation of various factors that influence the effectiveness of harnessing solar energy, such as sunlight exposure, shading, and the optimal placement of solar panels.
What Is Roof Underlayment & Why It's Important
Roof underlayment is the unsung hero of roofing systems, playing a vital role in protecting buildings from various environmental threats. Its significance spans across different roofing types, including the increasingly popular metal roofs, shingles, and tiles.
Utility-Scale Drone-in-a-Box Inspection
Raptor Maps collaborated with Enel, DJI, and UVT to conduct the first-ever DJI Dock solar site inspection in North America. Conducted on a 180+ MWdc site, Raptor Maps built the necessary mission planning software to direct the drone to conduct the inspection.
Winds Of Change For Vestas: 3D Printed Tooling Transforms Wind Turbines
There aren't a lot of technologies that can propel towering wind turbines to new heights of time and cost efficiencies, but large-format additive manufacturing rose to the challenge and delivered with its eclectic range of applications.
Renewable Energy Solutions with Intermountain Wind & Solar
This installation just down the street from Weber State University maximizes solar panel placement to offset the energy needs of the newly constructed five-story apartment building in the scenic Gardens neighborhood on 40th Street.
Improving Post Harvest Management through Portable Solar Cold Storage Systems - A Case Study from the Northeastern Part of India
The local farmers were informed about the Solar-Powered Cold Storage through the field staff and the District Agriculture Department. About 40 farmers started using Solar Cold Storage facilities in a year, primarily for storing potatoes.
Current Developments, Issues, Discoveries and Advancements in Geothermal Energy
Geothermal energy can bridge the transition away from fossil fuels, as it currently makes use of the tools and existing wells in the oil and gas industry, while also addressing the unreliability of current renewables.
Wall Mounted Solar Thermal System
Our solar thermal system consists of a panel mounted on a building's south-facing wall (panel size depends on the heating objective - 4x6', 4x8', 4x10'), a controller (the system's "brain"), a fan to push or pull the warm air, & some ducting.
Rapid Assessment of Wind Damage
The asset owner needed to quickly assess the damage to prepare for possible insurance claims and develop a remediation strategy. Raptor Maps' analysis found more than 20MWdc of site capacity was impacted by equipment anomalies.
Mini-grid for extended family - NZ Homestead gets private power
The power supply at Tim and Fiona's homestead in Auckland, New Zealand is distributed from a micro grid which serves their extended family of eight, across three tiny homes, the main residence, and large workshop.
How Earth Anchor Foundation Technology Simplifies Ground-Mounted Solar for Installers
In today's residential solar market, many installers specialize in strictly rooftop projects. However, it's not always possible - or even the best decision,
3D Printing Powers Wind Turbine Research At TU Berlin
On average, wind turbine blades are a massive 80 meters long. When it comes to reengineering these towering blades, no other technology offers the freedom, precision, and adaptability to scale parts quite like 3D printing.
Making a Splash With Solar Energy
The initial pull test and geotechnical report showed no traces of underground rock. However, during the installation, our crew found a vein of shale approximately two to three feet down on certain segments of the site.
Reducing the Risk of Battery Thermal Runaway
One solution to reducing the risk of a battery fire are infrared cameras. Infrared fire detection systems monitor large areas and are able to detect heat releasing from battery packs or single batteries.
Artificial Photosynthesis: An interesting up and coming alternative energy source
Natural photosynthesis has various steps that are so complex that replicating it is challenging. Each step is equally important in the pathway of converting carbon dioxide and other reactants into energy.
