More than 150 clean energy business owners in Vermont signed a letter to state senators this week urging them defeat a controversial piece of legislation that could damage renewable energy advances there.
While Vermont has a reputation for liberally supporting solar energy and other renewable technologies...
Earlier this week, and perhaps as his last salvo in office before retiring as Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar, announced approval of three new giant renewable energy projects, the McCoy Solar Energy Project, the Desert Harvest Solar Farm and the Searchlight Wind Energy Project. Secretary Salazar...
Britain will offer renewable energy developers contracts for the power they generate ahead of electricity market reforms due to go into force next year to avoid delays that may threaten the U.K.’s low-carbon ambitions.
The government will provide so-called investment contracts to successful applicants...
A knowledge-sharing collaboration has been announced between U.S. solar industry body the Photovoltaic Manufacturing Consortium (PVMC) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to advance thin film technology.
The collaboration will examine areas including products, metrology, reliability,...
I’m a reader. I love sitting down with a great book or an in-depth report full of charts and graphs and really digging in. SEIA and GTM Research just released their Solar Market Insight Report with staggering figures about solar installations in the U.S. in 2012. If you, like me, love to learn...
The U.S. approved three renewable- energy projects to be built on federal land in California and Nevada.
The two solar farms and one wind project are expected to total 1,100 megawatts of capacity, enough to power more than 340,000 homes, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said today at a press conference...
While the State of New York hashes out deep disagreement over how to deal with sugary megadrinks that contribute to obesity, maybe they can turn their attention to something a little less complicated — like mapping a full conversion to 100 percent renewable energy in less than 20 years.
Stanford...
As the low-emission economy evolves, building new generation technologies is just half the challenge. The other half of the challenge lies in building the transport and distribution networks – and Asia is the region to watch, specifically China, Japan, South Korea, the Association of Southeast Asian...
The US Photovoltaic Manufacturing Consortium (PVMC), an industry-led collaboration headquartered in New York at the SUNY College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE), has partnered with the US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to improve manufacturing processes...
Japan is wasting the opportunity of the Fukushima disaster by failing to use the crisis and public opposition toward nuclear reactors to form an energy mix more reliant on renewable energy, Canadian author, environmentalist and geneticist David Suzuki says.
“Fukushima gives the opening that if they...
