Minnesota just plugged a 710-megawatt #solar farm into a coal plant that once burned 30,000 tons a day. The unique approach to connecting the panels to the grid allowed it to sidestep a typically years-long connection process.

Retirement does not mean the old hardware stops working entirely, either. One of the retiring units is being converted into a synchronous condenser, a huge

Solar panels on football stadiums make perfect sense. The next question: how long until we see parking lots everywhere covered with solar canopies too? Generate power. Provide shade. Charge EVs. #Solar #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition #ESG balkangreenenergynews.com….

Morocco just activated the #NoorAtlas Mega Complex — a 20,000-megawatt #solar installation across 45,000 hectares of Saharan plateau. It's capable of generating up to 160 MW, making the first stage alone one of the world's biggest solar thermal power plants unfccc.int/es/node/21533 #ActOnClimate

France passed a law in 2022 requiring car parks to install #solar. * Applies if ≥80 spaces * Must cover at least 50% of area * Exemptions (grid constraints, heritage sites) We did it with disabled spaces why not solar? There are obstacles but none are strong enough to justify not doing it at all!

This robot installs 80 panels/hour. One every 45 sec. 1,920/day ≈ 0.0008 GW/day per line. Sounds small. It’s not. Scale this across thousands of lines and #solar becomes manufacturing, not construction. 👉 10,000 lines = 8 GW/day. That’s HOW China is winning the energy game.

Utah just reached a major clean energy milestone: solar became the state’s largest source of electricity generation for the month of May. ☀️ The energy transition isn’t coming—it’s already happening. www.fox13now.com/news/pol…. #Solar #RenewableEnergy #CleanEnergy #SustainableInvesting

#Spain combination of high solar irradiance, large available land, and aggressive #renewable auction programs has made it one of Europe's fastest-growing solar markets. #Solar regularly sets the marginal price in Spain's electricity market — meaning that when the sun shines, prices fall toward zero.

Virginia lawmakers passed a new bill that lets people use small plug-in #solar panels on #balconies to make some of their own electricity ☀️🔌. These portable panels can produce limited power (around 1,200 watts), helping renters and apartment residents lower energy bills without big construction 🏙️💡.
