Why USC Students Are Demanding More Solar Power
California leads the country when it comes to solar power, with the majority of PV installations concentrated in the southern portion of the state. And this makes sense given the region’s enviable, year-round sunshine. When it comes to total solar output, properties...California Enters 6th Year of Record Droughts
Climate change is a topic we cover frequently in this blog. In fact, just this week, we wrote a piece about how concerns about the environment tend to break along party lines: Liberal Democrats overwhelmingly believe that global warming is indeed happening....Why Are Solar Installations in California More Expensive?
California is America’s most active solar hotspot. In fact, we have more installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity than the other 49 states combined. All of this activity also makes California the most competitive solar market as well. In addition, we have fantastic...Climate Change Belief Along Party Lines
If you did a global survey, you would find that the vast majority of the planet believes that climate change is happening.

Thanks to very ambitious green mandates, utilities are required to invest in cleaner and more sustainable...San Diego Firefighters Go Solar
A common myth among renewable energy skeptics is that solar isn’t strong or reliable enough. We’ve already thoroughly debunked this myth in a previous article. But you don’t have to take our word for it. Just look at the countless organizations out there...California Solar Solving State’s Drinking Water Shortage?
In California, we love our bottled water. Municipal water services provide plenty of H2O via the tap, but we prefer hydrating from disposable, plastic containers. However, this could change very soon as water in our drought-stricken state becomes even more expensive....California Net Metering Helping State Utilities
The utility death spiral is a well-documented phenomenon happening all over the country – especially in California. But what is it exactly?

The other day, we read an interesting article that opened with: California’s electrical grid has a problem — a nice problem, but a problem nonetheless: The state often has too much power. And it’s true. Even with dwindling hydroelectric resources and closure of...San Diego Solar and Peak Electricity Demand
In most markets (including California’s), peak electricity demand is historically during the day – when businesses, schools, and government agencies are all running at full capacity. And so the decision to go solar is a no-brainer. The sun shines brightest...
