Streamlining Grid Interconnections: Cooperation Over Competition in an Increasingly Renewable World
While huge leaps of progress have been made, there is still work to be done. Last year, DG solar accounted for just 0.7% of all U.S. grid power generation. Limited market penetration has allowed a number of states to refrain from adopting statewide grid interconnection standards.
More than 50,000 new jobs through photovoltaics and storage technology
Recent study by Bonn market researchers: Expansion of photovoltaic and storage technology could triple the number of jobs. Rapid removal of PV market barriers in the EEG as well as release of brakes on expansion necessary to close the climate protection gap and avoid shortfalls in power generation as a result of nuclear and coal phaseout.
Understanding and Installing Split-Cell Modules
With split-cell (aka half-cell) modules becoming more prominent in the market, it is important to understand their inherent differences and have the know-how necessary to install them.
Study: Solar Tariffs Cause Devastating Harm to U.S. Market, Economy and Jobs
More than 62,000 jobs, $19 billion in investment and 10.5 GW of solar are lost due to tariffs
First Theme Park on the West Coast Powered by Solar is Six Flags Discovery Kingdom
Moving forward, 80% of the park's energy usage will be powered by one of the largest solar carport installations in the country.
Heliogen Achieves Breakthrough Temperatures From Concentrated Sunlight for Industrial Processes
Heliogen will be able to replace the fuel that generates greenhouse gas emissions from industrial processes with solar energy for the first time. For instance, cement production - one of the industrial processes well suited to Heliogen's technology - alone accounts for more than 7 percent of global CO2 emissions.
Commercial Real Estate and Clean Power Investment Tips
