How to Protect Solar Panels from Environmental Damage

Solar PV systems spend all their time outside, so it's natural for them to encounter the occasional animal droppings or falling acorns. You may wonder how to keep them intact when more prominent issues like thunderstorms and hurricanes roll around, though.

How Can We Improve Hydropower Technologies?

Innovation is inevitable, and technologies, digital or not, will progress as time goes on because it has too. Sustainable clean energy sources are vital to the future of our planet and with a little bit of commitment to innovation, we can get there sooner than we think.

Morningstar and TÜV Rheinland

In the solar industry, standards and regulations change quickly, with new standards emerging at a rapid pace. Morningstar has been using multiple compliance service providers, but struggled to find one that aligned with all their specific needs.

Solar Light Systems Provide Crucial Light Sources in Remote Oil Fields

EcoSol Energy Systems a leading energy, water and sustainability consulting headquartered Dubai, United Arab Emirates was tapped to develop a lighting system to keep the oil fields running safely and efficiently.

How Did Wind and Solar Become Cheaper Than Coal?

The IEA predicts the world's renewable energy capacity will increase by 50% between now and 2024. This rise in renewable energy usage is mostly due to solar PV, which is becoming favorable in a wide range of industries.

Babcock Ranch: Learning From the World's First Solar-powered Town

Real estate developers, Kitson & Partners, have set a new standard for sustainable living. Their groundbreaking model of a 100 percent solar-powered town in South Florida called Babcock Ranch, is touted to be the largest self-sustaining community in the country.

Superfund Project Restores an Ecosystem

The Superfund Redevelopment Initiative helps communities reclaim and reuse contaminated land for a wide range of purposes including the generation of sustainable renewable energy. That is the case with the Elizabeth Mine Superfund Project.

Case Study: Remedying Mismatch & Shading with Tigo's Monitoring & Optimization Functionalities

Thanks to Tigo's monitoring and optimizing functions, the customer observed a clear improvement in mismatch and shading production issues.

Gridtential Energy and Crown Battery Build New Silicon Wafer Battery that Combines the Best of Lead and Lithium-ion Performance

Using technology similar to a solar cell, Gridtential Energy's breakthrough Silicon Joule™ technology allows batteries to deliver up to 5X the power density with up to a 40% weight reduction - and it can be manufactured in current lead battery plants.

Using the Earth as a Battery

When you place a zinc anode and a copper cathode in a container of wet mud, the two metals start reacting, because zinc loses electrons easier than copper and because the mud contains ions. By wetting the dirt, it turns into a true electrolyte solution.

How Machine Learning Could Impact the Future of Renewable Energy

Machine learning technology - computer programs that use data sets to "learn" how to see patterns in information like wind speed and energy output - may be the answer to wind farms' prediction problem.

Composite Solutions for the Wind Energy Industry

With the push for longer blades, carbon fibre is used as its lighter weight compared to fibreglass, allowing longer blades to capture more wind energy.

Park City Wind Will Transform Bridgeport Into Offshore Wind Hub

Offshore wind project would create thousands of jobs, lead to more than $1.5 billion in investment and economic development opportunities, and save Connecticut ratepayers over $1 billion.

What Can Solar Panel Installers Do Amidst Decreasing Prices?

As a solar panel installer, what can you take of this decreasing price of solar panels? Would it do your business good or not-so-good? How can your business adapt to this decreasing price of solar panels (that shows no sign of slowing down anytime soon)?

Could Predictive Analytics Help Tesla Drop the Cost of the Battery Pack to $100 per kWh?

The battery pack cost of $100/kWh is a primary target for Tesla. To achieve this, the company must solve one of the world's most demanding technology challenges - and it is how to increase the volumetric energy density of battery cells while slashing production costs.
