Why rising temperatures don't make solar power rise
Isha Salian for San Francisco Chronicle: Sunny skies sound like a positive for energy production, but this weeks heatwave in California isnt a boon for solar power.
Why Design Matters for Solar O&M
When evaluating SATs, I want to consider whether the failure of any individual hardware component could threaten the systems overall production. In the case of a decentralized SAT, for example, each rows independent motor is powered by its own dedicated solar panel (with integrated battery backup), making external power cables obsolete.
3 Ways to Prevent a Solavalanche
Because the face of solar panels are fabricated from glass, theres no surface area/friction for snow to grip onto, and nothing to stop it from building up, eventually releasing in an avalanche manner, in the form of what we Alpine-ites like to refer to as a solavalanche.
Can Offshore Wind Power Revive U.S. Ports?
Benjamin Storrow for Scientific American: Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Maryland are all eyeing up manufacturing and maintenance businesses that would support wind energy
U.S. Reports a Major Milestone in Wind and Solar Power
Bobby Magill for Scientific American: 10 percent of electricity generated in the country in March came from these renewables
Pika Energy - The Harbor Smart Battery Series: Smart Power on Demand
The Harbor Smart Battery provides clean energy storage with revolutionary simplicity and automated performance.
Energy storage and renewables beyond wind, hydro, solar make up 4% of U.S. power capacity
California leads the United States in capacity of several categories: hydroelectric pumped storage, geothermal, landfill gas, and batteries. Florida leads the country in capacity of municipal solid waste and other waste biomass generators.
Clean-technology Incubator Program Expands Focus Beyond Commercial Buildings
The Innovation Incubator (IN2) is now a $30 million program supporting a technology incubator and provides a platform to support early-stage clean tech startup companies to overcome market gaps by providing access to both technical assistance and project support funding.
Illinois researchers explore 'self-healing' for energy storage batteries
David J. Unger for Midwest Energy News: Batteries - whether theyre powering a smartphone or storing energy on the grid - take a beating.
SaltX, Aalborg CSP to develop integrated energy storage solution
Conor Ryan for Energy Storage News: A first prototype of the storage system is expected to be developed later in 2017, with both companies planning to secure a commercial pilot plant during 2018.
The Future of District Heating
Perhaps one of the primary reasons for district heating systems not being as efficient as they should be is due to a lack of access to data. Effectively, designers specify systems without using any operational data to help inform their decisions.
Talking Intersolar with Bryan Whitton, Darfon Solar
Darfon will be introducing 5 new products this year: H5000, H100, H200, G640 and ComBox. The H5000, our latest hybrid inverter, converts DC power from the PV modules or batteries into AC. Based upon programmed priorities easily set up by the installer, batteries are charged from either the PV array or grid.
First generation biofuels don't have to mean food shortages, according to UN official
Biofuels International: Dubois argued that biofuels should be seen as a tool for responsible investment in agriculture and rural development.
How much power Trump's wall could generate if it was covered in solar panels
Leanna Garfield for Business Insider: Not considering the multi-billion-dollar construction cost of the wall itself, the solar array installation could cost between $1.4 billion and $4.2 billion
US Deploys 234 Megawatt-Hours Of Energy Storage In Q1 In Largest Quarter Ever
Joshua S Hill for CleanTechnica: The United States had its largest ever quarter for energy storage deployment this year, deploying 234 megawatt-hours worth of energy storage across the first quarter of the year.

HPS EnduraCoilTM Cast Resin Medium Voltage Transformer
HPS EnduraCoil is a high-performance cast resin transformer designed for many demanding and diverse applications while minimizing both installation and maintenance costs. Coils are formed with mineral-filled epoxy, reinforced with fiberglass and cast to provide complete void-free resin impregnation throughout the entire insulation system. HPS EnduraCoil complies with the new NRCan 2019 and DOE 2016 efficiency regulations and is approved by both UL and CSA standards. It is also seismic qualified per IBC 2012/ASCE 7-10/CBC 2013. Cast resin transformers are self-extinguishing in the unlikely event of fire, environmentally friendly and offer greater resistance to short circuits. HPS also offers wide range of accessories for transformer protection and monitoring requirements.
