The Revenge of Solar | By Arnold Leitner What if I tell you that in the spring of 2001, the United States was about to pull the plug on all large-scale solar research? The reason for the decision was that solar would never be able to provide any meaningful amount of electricity to the power grid. #powerbloc #solarpowered #solarbattery #cleanenergy #investnow

Good news on solar growth! Generation in June 2024 is up by 44% compared to last year, with an impressive trend over time: - June 2024: 36 TWh - June 2023: 25 TWh - June 2022: 22 TWh - June 2021: 17 TWh Since June 2021, solar has seen a remarkable 110% increase. Despite currently accounting for only 8.5% of the total US electricity, the upward trend is encouraging, paving the way for more businesses to transition to electrification. 🌞🔌 #SolarEnergy #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability

Via PV Mag: " In case you missed it: Five big solar stories in the news this week: pv magazine USA spotlights news of the past week including market trends, project updates, policy changes and more. Hydrogen-powered data center planned for Texas California-based data center developer ECL is incorporating hydrogen fuel cells and battery storage into its projects to enable a completely self-contained generating capacity, even to the point of being grid free. San Diego refuses call to ban battery storage projects Battery blazes at Otay Mesa and Escondido prompted calls for a temporary halt on new sites but the local authority decided instead to extend a requirement to include details of fire safety systems as part of planning applications. Solar levelized cost of electricity 56% lower than lowest-cost fossil fuels The International Renewable Energy Agency shared that in 2010, solar was four times as expensive as the lowest-cost fossil fuel. Today, generating electricity from solar is less than half as expensive as the lowest-cost fossil alternative. Reaching 45% solar generation would save Southeast utilities $20 billion/year Annual savings of $20 billion are possible across six Southeastern states by reaching 45% solar generation by 2035, according to a national laboratory study. Solar-plus-storage dominating future U.S. power grid A report from Berkeley Lab reveals a significant expansion of solar-plus-storage facilities in the U.S. power plant market, highlighting an evolution from frequency to arbitrage and curtailment mitigation markets.

In just 10 years, solar energy capacity has grown 32 times—a testament to the massive potential of renewable energy, and on the path to installing 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. Key to this growth: • Awareness: Increased focus on sustainable energy. • Availability: Boosting domestic solar manufacturing. • Affordability: Making solar technology accessible to all.

The solar industry is poised for a record-breaking year in 2024, with an estimated 593 gigawatts (GW) of new solar power expected to be added globally. This surge, as forecasted by Ember, a climate-focused think tank, marks a significant milestone in the transition to clean energy sources. The anticipated addition of 593 GW in 2024 would represent a 30% increase compared to the previous year. This remarkable growth trajectory is driven by several factors, including declining solar module costs, supportive government policies, and increasing corporate commitments to renewable energy. China, the world's largest solar market, is expected to lead the expansion, followed by the United States and India. The substantial increase in solar capacity will contribute significantly to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating the impacts of climate change. #LoomSolar #अपना_घर_अपनी_बिजली #RenewableEnergy #EnergyEfficiency #EnvironmentalConservation #Sustainability #solarupdate #newupdate #solarpanel #SolarPower #GreenEnergy

Solar panels are a common sight on rooftops across Queensland, as more and more households and businesses are embracing clean and renewable energy. Not only does solar power help reduce electricity bills, but it also reduces our carbon footprint and helps protect the environment. But it's not just homes and businesses that are benefiting from solar energy in Queensland. The state's large-scale solar farms are also contributing to the renewable energy revolution. These solar farms are not only generating clean electricity but also creating jobs and driving economic growth. I am proud to see that Bundaberg is one of the top solar suburbs in Queensland. With the Queensland Government's commitment to renewable energy targets, we can expect even more exciting developments in the solar energy sector!
