Unprecedented Growth in Solar and Storage Anticipated with Record Installations and Investments NEW YORK - In recent years, the United States has made remarkable strides in embracing renewable energy, positioning itself for a more sustainable future. This transition has been driven by a combination of factors, including environmental concerns, economic opportunities, and technological advancements. With the introduction of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), the United States is rapidly advancing its journey towards clean energy solutions.

While growth in solar and wind generation is encouraging, early progress is tempered by significant challenges. Achieving statewide clean energy mandates is dependent on local permitting structures and politics. Anyone who has tried to site a major development – from a retail complex to a housing development to a landfill – will tell you that gaining the needed zoning approvals and permits to start construction is an expensive and arduous process. It is made even more risky by the reality that gaining the necessary local approvals often does not depend on the need for or quality of the project. There is a clear case for making changes to the way renewable energy projects are reviewed and approved.

Environment America: In reference to the recommendations made by Environment Texas, [Sen. Johnson] said, “...We are going to have a fantastic energy infrastructure in this state, but it will not happen if old biases prevail and block the progress that we have made on the renewable front.” Read the full article by Ian Seamans: bit.ly/4fqTFsj #TXLege #SD16

Given the importance of large-scale solar on our country’s clean energy transition, many are seeking new collaborators to address these difficulties and facilitate its growth. #2024SolarTrends #LargeScaleSolar #CleanEnergyTransition

31 million acres to develop solar fields with 29 gigawatts of power. Impressive? Not so fast. These will produce approx. 2.9 gWh of power annually. In an earlier post it was noted that the data center boom, when coupled with the planned migration to all EVs will require an additional generating capability of 1.7 million gWh of above the current US generating capacity. This reserved land area, which is approximately the size of Rhode Island, Delaware, Connecticut, New Jersey, New Hampshire and Vermont combined, will yield about 0.00017% of the anticipated future demand. Something to think about. From my perspective, our resources might be more effectively used if devoted to small modular reactors.
