US wind installations sink to zero in Q2
US wind growth has ground to a halt this year, with no new installations completed in the second quarter of 2013, figures from the American Wind Energy Association show.
The new figures are even worse than Q1's 1.6MW of new installations, effectively just one GE 1.6MW turbine.
The next slackest period for wind power in the States was the first quarter of 2010, with 541MW of completed installations. The figure for the final quarter of 2012 was 8,380MW.
In its report, the AWEA accepted that the wind power industry ‘slowed dramatically’ in the first half of 2013, and it cited the late extension of the production tax credit (PTC) and ‘historic levels’ of installation at the end of 2012 as reasons.
But it insisted that activity was ‘picking up’ in the industry, listing as evidence more than 3,950MW of long-term power purchase agreements signed, and more than 1,300MW of self-builds announced, by utilities since January.
There was 1,280MW of wind power under construction across eight US states as of June 30.
Offshore Wind Alliances Give Certainty to Funders
Developers of offshore wind parks find it difficult to give approval for the execution of their projects on balance sheet at Final Investment Decision [FID] unless there is a pre-agreed refinance structure for the project with acceptable interim risk.
Bye Bye FIT - Hello Self-Consumption
With an incentive programme now in place, the German PV industry looks to promote self-consumption, but what do installers and adopters need to know?
A Distributed Solar Utility
Unlike a traditional, large thermal power plant, where hundreds of megawatts or even gigawatts are generated in a single geographic location, our solar facilities will be distributed all across the country and eventually, around the world.
MicroPower Ready To Realise The Potential Of Thermoelectrics For Waste Heat Recovery
Thermoelectrics is a means of utilising thermal energy by converting it to electrical energy so that, when there is a heat differential between the opposing sides of certain semiconductor materials, the difference in temperatures causes the electrons in the material to move, creating an electric current.
VC Funding for Solar
VC funding is up $63 million this quarter from $126 million to $189 million. The total number of deals however went down to 19 from the 26
63D RSC Lessons Learned in Energy Efficiency
By reducing energy consumption through the use of geothermal and solar water heaters while generating energy from renewable sources, the 63D RSC is positioning itself to meet the three percent annually energy reduction goal while creating renewable energy generation projects for the Army Reserve.
A Program to Drive Smarter Energy Consumption Choices
The Energy Joule takes pricing and consumption data from the home's smart meter and simplifies it into an easy-to-read format, enabling the homeowner to understand their energy usage at a glance.
The Panasonic / Coronal Partnership and Solution
Coronal and Panasonic deliver an efficient and integrated construction and permanent financing solution - mitigating investment risk and offering customers a way to navigate the complexities involved in a solar project by minimizing the effort required to realize the often considerable economic benefits.
How Architects Help the Environment and Save Energy
Green architecture is full of prospects for the future from both a creativity perspective, as well as ecological requirements. Because of modern technology, architects can not only preserve the environment but improve it
CANWEA 2013 - Wind Energy in Canada
2013 is expected to be another record year for new wind energy development in Canada with the largest portion of new projects being developed in Quebec and Ontario.
