Interview with Neil Fromer, Executive Director, Caltech Resnick Sustainability Institute
We have researchers here developing systems that should be able to convert more than 40% of the incoming sunlight to electricity (current panels are ~20% efficient). We are also working with research groups that can generate fuels and chemicals directly form sunlight, or from biomass, hopefully at an efficiency and cost that will replace conventional fossil fuel materials.
A Guide to Safely Installing Solar Panel Arrays to Any Property Type
As the world continues to shift towards alternative energy sources, solar power will only continue to grow. Technologies will come and go and the astute product providers will continue to innovate.
Can We Save Energy with Vehicle Tires?
Tires may seem to be an unlikely eco-product. But, according to a new market report from Smithers Rapra, the global market for "green tires" will reach $70.6 billion by 2017 or 28% of the total tire market.
The Schneider Electric Smart Grid (SESG) Laboratory
The SESG Lab can replicate the operation of a substation and feeders of an electrical utility distribution system, thanks to its core infrastructure that supports organizations in the research and development of leading edge solutions and systems pertaining to smart grid technology.
ALTER EOLIA - Stackable Mini Wind Turbines
They can be installed on building roofs or stack at variable heights without a mast and without foundation. They are 100% removable, 100% silent, 100% recyclable and maintenance free.
Improving Solar Tracker Performance With SMARTracking™
This case study is based on a real project in South West France. Results have been validated by an independent third party.
Solar Energy Index Outperforms S&P in Q1 2015
Similar to the S&P 500 Index, the Solar Stock Index is a market cap weighted composite index.
Storing Energy by Making Ice
Ice Energy has been awarded a five-year contract from Riverside Public Utilities to provide 5 megawatts of behind-the-meter thermal energy storage using Ice Energy's proprietary Ice Bear system.
Wind Energy Timeline - From Persian Windmills Crushing Grains to Vesta's Wind Turbines Churning out 8 MW of Output
The global wind power market continues to rapidly expand in 2015. It is expected that global wind energy production will surpass 65 gigawatts by 2020!
Wind Engineers Salary & Employer Trends
Wind engineers are in heavy demand as Wind Energy becomes a stable source for alternative energy. Our research explored salary levels for Wind Engineers across the US and key employers.
Using EagleView and Pictometry to Determine Solar Suitability and Prepare a Proposal
Contractors can access high-resolution aerial imagery of properties - top-down and north, south, east and west views.
California first state to generate more than 5% of electricity from utility-scale solar
All of the top 10 states-with the exception of Florida-have a renewable portfolio standard in place. Most of those policies include a specific target for solar power or customer-sited generation.
Retrofitting Buildings to Improve Energy Efficiency
Making a building more sustainable while completing the retrofit could attract more higher-paying tenants, which would cause a greater appreciation by the time the owners plan to sell. Properties with Energy Star certification have sold for 2-5% more than buildings without such certification.
Simple Change Enables Darts Farm to Generate 1/3 of its Energy Needs Onsite
How solar is reducing farm shop's CO2 emissions and overheads.
The Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Energy Association (FCHEA)
As fuel cells continue to increase sales and installations in existing markets and prove themselves in others, companies in synergistic energy technology sectors will hopefully consider joining FCHEA to become more involved in the industry.
