Distributed energy generation, using a variety of renewable power technologies, is one of the most important tools for addressing the challenge of meeting the world’s growing electricity demand. Within the Renewable Distributed Energy Generation (RDEG) market, sub-utility scale solar photovoltaics (PV) are by far the largest and most significant segment, representing approximately 98% of the total. Solar PV growth has been spearheaded in recent years by markets such as Germany, Japan, Spain, and the United States. Remaining countries in the European Union are starting to pick up strong momentum as well. Emerging markets ...

as its unit of price measurement. The solar energy industry typically uses price per Watt Peak (Wp) as its primary unit of measurement. The prices for high power band (>125 watts) solar modules has dropped from around $27/Wp in 1982 to around $4/Wp today . Prices higher and lower than this are usually dependent upon the size of the order. To find out more about current solar module prices across all power ...

With the onset of an early and hot summer and news reports about likely low electricity generation in the months ahead from the hydro power corporations due to fall in water level in the dams, the thought of a hot afternoon with power cuts has started haunting the senses. The possibility of storing energy from the sun to power homes seems such an easy solution but has proved wishful thinking all these years. The discomfort of heat and power cuts, with the abundance of the sun for most part of the year may have led the country to set an ambitious target of 22,000 mw of ... Read More

A child pokes a stick into some oil that came ashore on the beach at Gulf Shores, Ala., on Friday, June 4, 2010. The spill, combined with anticipated regulations, has nearly doubled the price of crude to be delivered in 2018. The oil market is signaling that
prices have nowhere to go but up as the biggest spill in U.S.

The Obama Administration, in keeping with Rahm Emmanuel’s philosophy of “never letting a serious crisis go to waste” is using the BP oil calamity to its advantage. In order to understand the scope of the problem, we must begin by looking at a brief history of BP and how deeply energy markets affect politics. Last week, Obama pretended to accept responsibility for the oil spill, but then ridiculously claimed that he didn’t know that the ties of corruption between the oil companies and politicians would extend past Bush’s administration into his time in office.( 1 ) This is completely absurd, given the long history of oil and ...

not 2 electron volts (2 eV) as previously thought, but instead is a much
lower 0.7 eV. The serendipitous discovery means that a single system of alloys incorporating
indium, gallium, and nitrogen can convert virtually the full spectrum

This page will have my own opinions about solar energy, but I will gladly
include references to other opinions. The Wikipedia page on solar
energy looks up-to-date as of 2007 and will presumably
be kept up-to-date. The applications of solar energy include powering earth satellites
(successful), powering emergency telephones along highways
(successful), heating water with rooftop installations (successful but
at best marginally cost-effective where energy is cheap), electric power
where grid energy is not available (apparently not cost-effective at
present compared to diesel generators) and central station electric

Technology is a broad concept that deals with a species' usage and knowledge of tools and crafts, and how it affects a species' ability to control and adapt to its environment. In human society, it is a consequence of science and engineering, although several technological advances predate the two concepts. Technology is a term with origins in the Greek "technologia", "τεχνολογία" — "techne", "τέχνη" ("craft") and "logia", "λογία" ("saying").[1] However, a strict definition is elusive; "technology" can refer to material objects of use to humanity, such as machines, hardware or utensils, but can also encompass ...
