The inauguration of Joe Biden as president of the United States sparked auspicious investment into revitalizing renewable energy industries and helping make Americans’ lives more sustainable. That begins with the Inflation Reduction Act and clean energy. This blog will briefly talk about the Inflation Reduction Act, its passage, why it is of such importance for the clean energy sector and ...
Utility-scale engineering and construction projects are inherently risky. Large numbers of people independently working on a site, out in the weather, around dangerous machinery large and small, racing to finish the project as quickly as possible. Most Engineering, Procurement, and Engineering (EPCs) in the solar industry have the personnel safety issue solved. There are ongoing, sophisticated ...
Solar plus storage costs are falling below wholesale power prices across Europe and deeper savings in capex and cost of finance lie ahead, authors of a new cross-industry paper told New Energy Update. A new study of PV and battery costs at six European cities indicates solar plus storage costs are falling faster than previously expected. Utility scale PV projects with 2 ...
Less than a decade ago, offshore wind energy and solar PV were similarly priced energy sources. Unsubsidized installed costs for both exceeded $5 per watt, or more than double that for land-based wind. Despite their cost, both technologies were seen as the best hopes for supplying urban centers with green power, especially in the BOSNYWASH (Boston-New York-Washington, DC) corridor of the eastern ...
” Renewable energy is achieving cost competitiveness with fossil fuels. The cost of solar photovoltaic power has plunged the past few years and utility-scale PV projects in the West are competitive in cost and size even with natural gas plants. ...

Most impressively, the levelised cost of electricity (LCOE)1 of solar PV has halved between 2010 and 2014, so that solar photovoltaics (PV) is also increasingly competitive at the utility scale. ...
With over 400 companies operating in the local PV industry, Jordan is leading the way in the development of a regional PV market. Projects from Round I are soon to get financial closure, while the preferred bidders for Round II will be announced shortly. On the last year Jordan has proven to be a pioneer in solar PV in the Middle East. With the opening of two rounds of utility- scale PV projects ...
PV Insider has announced the details of their latest complimentary webinar on Tuesday April 10th, giving a comprehensive outline of the project financing situation in the photovoltaic industry in India. Thanks to the National Solar Mission, India finds itself today on the path of becoming one of the leading nations in solar energy, and the ...
