Solar energy is set for a rapid expansion – but only if several barriers are overcome, according to new research.
Solar power generation varies greatly depending on the weather. A new study suggests in some parts of Australia, solar has a bright future.
Using agricultural land for both solar and food production presents huge opportunities for Canadian farmers, especially in Alberta.
In some cases, adding a battery to your rooftop solar system will pay off. But to be sure of this, households need information about many factors – and there’s no single reliable place to find it.
A new study shows we can maximise the benefits of green roofs and rooftop solar systems by putting them together on the one roof.
New research shows densely populated countries in Southeast Asia and West Africa could harvest effectively unlimited energy from solar panels floating on calm tropical seas near the equator.
Australia has a lot of wind and sun, but will we actually become a world leader in renewable energy generation?
As the energy revolution gains pace, huge numbers of PV panels are already going to landfill. Many are still usable and even those that aren’t contain valuable materials that shouldn’t be discarded.
The very people most in need of the cost savings from installing solar panels are missing out. Better policies are needed to make home solar systems accessible to all Australians.
Solar panels can provide places for animals to rest, shelter and breed – potentially benefitting both the land and farmers.
To achieve low or even no electricity bills, there are three areas owners of home solar systems should focus on getting right.
it’s hard to justify buying a battery right now on cost savings alone. If other reasons also matter to you, it’s easier to justify.
All French car parks bigger than 80 spaces will be covered with solar panels.
A study of real-world disasters shows home solar and storage could keep the lights on and the air conditioner running during many outages, but not all.
East Kalimantan province possesses enormous potential for clean energy.
Until now, a more expensive type of silicon was used to produce the highest-efficiency solar panels. Now there’s a way to use cheaper raw materials, cutting the cost of solar power for everyone.
New research finds rooftop solar maintenance is becoming a form of housework, and this has the potential to become an equity issue.
The soaring power prices expected to hit Australians are yet another reason the Albanese government should turbocharge its efforts on renewable energy and storage.
The tariffs targeting cheap Chinese imports mean prices in the US are higher than average, at the same time Biden is pushing for more renewable energy. But their effect might surprise you.
