A new report says Big Tech could power all those energy-hungry AI data centers just by helping regular folks go solar. Instead of pouring billions into new gas plants, companies could invest in rooftop panels, home batteries, and heat pumps—cutting costs, boosting the...
PowerPair℠ from Duke Energy Progress provides incentives for customers who want to combine the savings of solar power with the reliability and security of backup battery storage. Participating North Carolina customers can earn one-time installation incentives when...
Turning farmland into a force for clean, affordable energy. Farmers Powering Communities is a collaborative initiative—launched in September 2022 by American Farmland Trust, Edelen Renewables, and Arcadia, and strengthened in May 2023 with Aggreko Energy Transition...
Global solar power is set to surpass nuclear electricity generation for the first time this summer, marking a milestone in the rapid expansion of renewables. While solar only produces during daylight and remains behind hydro, nuclear, and wind on an annual basis, its...
A new study from King’s College London suggests that space-based solar power (SBSP) could be a game-changer for Europe’s energy future, potentially slashing the need for land-based renewables by 80% and cutting overall system costs by 15% by 2050. Using a NASA design...
https://youtu.be/1MsBRjE5Rcs?si=SK55_K8VH6FbUm0w The Phoenix Solar Energy Assistance Program (PSEAP) provided fully funded rooftop solar installations for 10 income-qualified families, helping them save money and embrace clean energy! This initiative, led by Solar...
North Carolina lawmakers have overridden Governor Stein’s veto of SB 266, a controversial bill that allows utility companies to raise electricity rates and charge customers for energy projects that may never be built—bypassing established oversight and review...
What is Solar Grazing?It's the practice of grazing livestock on solar farms. Sheep are the most common solar grazing animals, as they are the best-suited species. Farm incomes are down, and solar grazing allows farmers to increase and diversify revenues without taking...
Scientists at Oxford University have developed a groundbreaking solar technology using ultra-thin, flexible perovskite materials that can be applied as a coating to everyday surfaces like buildings, vehicles, and mobile phones, eliminating the need for traditional...
While the technology is ready and public support for clean energy is strong—even across political lines—policy and infrastructure delays remain major bottlenecks. Nonetheless, geopolitical instability and climate concerns are pushing the global community toward...
