Recently I had the opportunity to sit down with one of the leading experts on electrical generation in China to discuss the absurd scales of all forms of electrical generation and storage. In the first half of our conversation, we talked coal, gas, and nuclear. In the second half — … [continued]
Another headache for rural solar opponents: the new Maximo AI-enabled robot is designed to slice half the cost and half the time from solar farm construction.
Rural solar advocates are punching back against the opposition with a new alliance between conservation, agriculture, and environmental organizations.
Researchers at Purdue University have patented an agrivoltaic array with solar panels that tilt for farm equipment to pass through.
With solar farms, the US agriculture industry once again demonstrates its ability to embrace new technologies and practices.
France-based renewable energy developer Neoen signed a 352 MWp power purchase agreement related to a solar farm with CleanCo of Queensland, Australia.
Fraunhofer ISE is leading experiments that combine solar power with aquaculture along the Mekong River in southern Vietnam. Many shrimp and fish farms cover their operations with greenhouse-like structures to keep contaminants out of the water. Fruahofer is turning those greenhouses into solar energy farms in a process known as SHRIMPS, a catchy acronym that stands for the convoluted and overly complex title “Solar-Aquaculture Habitats as Resource Efficient and Integrated Multilayer Production Systems.”
Dale Vince, the founder and Managing Director of Ecotricity, gave this interview on 16th November 2017, and I am very pleased to present the third part of it here.
Berkeley Energy, a coal company in eastern Kentucky, says it is planning to build the largest solar farm in Appalachia on land reclaimed after strip mining operations were completed.
Originally published on Solar Love. With the first phase of a 1 gigawatt (GW) solar PV park recently connected to the national grid of Pakistan, 100 MW of solar power capacity is now supplying the country with clean electricity. Not content to sit back and relax, phase two of Pakistan’s enterprising … [continued]
