In Scotland, gusts of wind usher in a quiet energy revolution

18 October 2016 Leave a Comment

"More than half of Scotland's electricity now comes from zero-carbon sources such as wind, hydro and solar, and the latest target of 100 percent by 2020 may be within reach. "The exceptional output brought the country membership in a small but growing club of nations proving that the vision of a world powered by renewable fuels is closer than many realize. Long derided as a fantasy, a day’s worth of energy harvested purely from the sun and the wind has lately become reality in nations such as … Continue reading

Is blue the new green? Wave power could revolutionize the renewable-energy game

2 September 2016 1 Comment

"There's enough wave energy in the oceans to power the world, and scientists are finally close to harnessing it. "Unless you’re a surfer, a sailor or the owner of beachfront property during hurricane season, you probably don’t spend much time thinking about the power of waves. That may be changing soon. "Like a large, slowly building swell miles from shore, the wave-power revolution has quietly and gradually gained momentum. "A report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change … Continue reading

Revolutionary: Germany Builds A Solar City That Produces Four Times More Energy Than It Consumes

3 May 2016 Leave a Comment

"We have known cities to be great power-guzzlers, having a huge appetite for consuming electricity to power its homes and buildings. To generate electricity for such cities through renewable sources like solar becomes a difficult task given the vast amount of area required to place the solar panels. But a city in the heart of Germany has achieved something more incredible. It not only has made itself self-sufficient in energy, but in fact has become a net producer of energy – all thanks to a … Continue reading

China pushes for mandatory integration of renewable power

4 April 2016 Leave a Comment

"China has become the world's biggest wind and solar power user, but a large amount of renewable power has not been able to reach the grid because transmission capabilities are lagging generating capacity by around three to five years. "China has ordered power transmission companies to provide grid connectivity for all renewable power generation sources and end a bottleneck that has left a large amount of clean power idle, the country's energy regulator said on Monday."

The Solar Village is the first community in the world to produce 4x more energy than it uses

14 March 2016 2 Comments

"After architect, Rolf Disch, built the Heliotrope (the first building in the world to capture more energy than it uses) he set his sights higher. "He successfully created a retail, commercial and residential space called Sonnenschiff, translating to "Solar Ship," that was energy net-positive in 2004. The building was a hit, and over the following years 60 more residential buildings have been constructed surrounding the solar ship, all with energy positive electrical systems. Today the village, … Continue reading
