Why the US Solar Industry Shouldn’t Fear a Trump Administration
The US solar industry has thrived under Barack Obama’s presidency. There were hiccups every now and then – like Solyndra. But overall, total solar output has mushroomed over the past 8 years: PV panel prices have plummeted to absurdly low levels. The number of solar...Using Local Green Solutions to Combat Global Climate Change
Climate change is a global phenomenon. Every single one of us is responsible – and every single one of us is affected. There’s no escaping this fact. So you would think that we’d come together as a planet to address this environmental crisis. And in many parts of the...San Diego on Track to Meet Climate Change Goals
Last year, San Diego unveiled its Climate Action Plan – a bold initiative designed to move the county off of fossil fuels entirely by 2035. The plan also calls for a dramatic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by that same year. San Diego isn’t the only city with...SDG&E Expects You to Pay for California’s Wildfires
California’s wildfires used to be seasonal. Now they happen all year long, resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in damage. These fires will only become more severe as global warming continues to disrupt local climates. This is especially true in Southern...Why Is the California Solar Industry Under Investigation?
The California solar industry is a shining example of what can happen when we put our minds together. The planet is in crisis. Electricity prices continue to soar. And we are dangerously dependent on imported energy. But politicians, businesses, and private citizens...Converting California Landfills into Solar PV Farms
Like most states, California tries its best to keep toxic sites and garbage dumps out of sight. These discarded tracts of land are an eyesore. And they’re also dangerous. But the state is currently exploring ways to transform these unused landfills into solar PV...What a Trump Presidency Means for Global Solar Power
All over the world, environmental advocates are jittery about America’s recent election. Earlier this week, we looked at what a Trump presidency might mean for renewable energy in the United States. But how might his administration impact global solar power and wind...Can California Honestly Reach 50% Green Energy?
Currently 37 states have renewable portfolio standards (RPS) that require utilities to generate a certain percentage of their electricity from clean power sources. California’s is one of the most aggressive. By 2030, the state is supposed to produce 50% green energy –...What a Trump Presidency Means for American Solar Energy
It’s really difficult to know what President-elect Trump’s plans are for the renewable energy industry. In the past: He’s called climate change a hoax. He’s publicly supported more drilling – even in protected habitats. He’s tapped a fellow climate change denier to...California Using EV’s to Make Power Grid Stronger
California leads the way in electric vehicle (EV) sales. In fact, the state is on track to add 1.5 million EV’s to the road by 2025. From a strictly environmental standpoint, this is a beautiful thing. For unlike traditional gas-guzzlers, electric vehicles don’t emit...All the More Reason to Go Solar Now
A lot of prospective customers ask us why they should go solar now. After all, photovoltaic (PV) panel prices keep dropping year after year. Isn’t it better to wait? They kind of have a point. All things being equal, a solar installation in San Diego today will be...San Diego’s Climate Action Plan Ahead of Schedule
San Diego’s Climate Action Plan was considered by many to be a long shot. By 2035, the city hopes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% – and generate 100% of its electricity from clean power sources like solar energy and wind. The reason there is so much...The Pros and Cons of Installing Solar on Public Lands
We are in the final months of President Obama’s administration. And he recently won approval to begin installing solar on public lands across the country. This initiative enjoys bipartisan support (which is very rare these days). And if it succeeds, it could help...Why Scientists Want to Install Solar PV Systems in Space
Earth is blessed with an abundance of renewable energy sources that don’t pollute and never disappear completely. And at any given moment, there is enough sunshine, wind, and geothermal activity to cover the world’s total electricity needs. The problem is that many of...
