2019's Battery Tech Challenge

Developing markets mean opportunity and threat for battery technology.

Reusing Renewable Energy Products

We started RENewed Wind and Solar because we don't think quality renewable energy equipment should sit in a warehouse - or worse, go to a landfill. We think there's a better way. Reuse.

How to Design a Rooftop Solar System for Maximum Energy Density?

For some installations it may make sense to reduce the tilt of the modules to a less optimal incident angle. Though this means less production on a per module-basis, it can mean a significant increase in the daily unshaded collection time for the array.

Trend to Watch: Bifacial Modules

Bifacial solar modules are becoming more popular in the solar industry. These modules can absorb sunlight from both sides as opposed to just one. Therefore, they can convert the light that is reflected behind the panel to increase the total energy production.

How Civil Work Erodes Project Economics

Both on paper and in the field, civil engineering can quickly drain your project's margins. From the intricacies of installation logistics to the added costs of non-standard products, margins become slimmer as development becomes more and more complex.

California Leads Nation in Residential Solar Installation Rates, Overall Homes and Total Capacity

Gavop's analysis of latest solar installation data from SEIA and census data shows that California leads the nation at 44.92% of all homes installed with solar home. California also leads the nation with total homes installed with solar power at 6.3M total homes ...

A Multi-trillion-dollar Energy Marketplace Is Emerging

Billions of individual devices and population growth have increased demand exponentially. Technology advances with the potential to lower costs and ward off cyber dangers are critically needed. And, commitments to clean and renewable energy sources have become mandates.

When Augers, Ground Screws Make Economic Sense for Solar Contractors?

The use of augers and ground screws have been of interest in solar ground mount systems for some time, and for the right sized job, they offer solar contractors an opportunity to grow their business.

LiDAR Technology Guides Measure's Automated, High Definition Wind Turbine Inspections

The LiDAR system that is mounted on the drone is used not only to navigate close to the blade but also to obtain spatial information about the blade. After a mission is completed, the data import process associates each image with the corresponding spatial information...

Fuel-Efficiency Vehicles: Where Are We Now?

Although sales growth in the U.S. has been slow, global sales of more energy efficient vehicles has taken off. This is leading to a great need for infrastructure investments that can support these types of vehicles, leading to many potential opportunities ...

NEC 2017 and Rapid Shutdown

Solar professionals can best prepare for NEC 2017 rapid shutdown regulations by educating themselves about the differences between NEC 2014 & 2017, options for multivendor solutions like Tigo, and relying on certified products that compliant.

Solar Shingle System

By pairing solar shingles with a re-roof or new construction, the cost is kept low. Instead of doing two separate projects (a new roof and a new solar system) you are only doing one integrated project.

SolarLEAF Energy Storage Solution

The SolarLeaf ™ is distributed energy storage solution that comes in 1kWh units and can be scaled to meet energy storage needs. SolarLeaf is designed to utilize existing balance of system equipment and can be installed at the same time as PV modules.

Preparing for NEC 2020

The code has been through two revisions and is currently with the correlating committee, where they will review any final edits or changes before publication in August 2019.

The Impact of Electric Cars on the Automotive Industry

Although the shift to electric was once considered far off and unlikely for many people, the rising concern for climate change and sustainability has helped sway public opinion towards the need for transportation based on alternative energy.

HPS EnduraCoilTM Cast Resin Medium Voltage Transformer

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.
