  • What Clean Energy Jobs? These Clean Energy Jobs!
    What Clean Energy Jobs? These Clean Energy Jobs! A couple of months ago, Environmental Entrepreneurs (E2) noticed an outpouring of stories questioning the health and growth of the clean energy economy. This just didn’t agree with the reality we’re seeing in our daily work. All across America, we’re witnessing clean energy jobs being created almost every day—helping to rebuild our economy, address our energy problems, and improve our national security. So E2, whose 800+ members represent a broad cross-section of business leaders, including many on the front lines of clean energy, set out to document this growth with weekly newsletters that compile job announcements from news sources around the country.1 So far, we’ve published six of these newsletters, in an attempt to provide some perspective from outside the Beltway, where one solar company’s failure isn’t indicative of the downfall of an entire industry. You can find each newsletter at www.e2.org/cleanjobs. In the past six weeks, E2 has identified 118 energy-efficiency retrofits, and other announcements from announcements by more than 100 companies, the clean economy. These projects are taking place across organizations, and projects in various stages the country—in 40 states and 96 congressional districts. of development and completion. They include Based on these published reports, if all these projects from manufacturing plants, power generation projects, just the last six weeks come to fruition, 32,000 jobs could be created.2 For more information, please contact Judith Albert, Executive Director, Environmental Entrepreneurs (E2) at 212-727-4568.

Fire Protection Research Foundation The Fire Protection Research Foundation One Batterymarch Park Quincy, MA, USA 02169-7471 Email: [email protected] http://www.nfpa.org/foundation © Copyright Fire Protection Research Foundation May 2010 Revised: October, 2013 (This page left intentionally blank) FOREWORD Today's emergency responders face unexpected challenges as new uses of alternative energy increase. These renewable power sources save on the use of conventional fuels such as petroleum and other fossil fuels, but they also introduce unfamiliar hazards that require new fire fighting strategies and procedures. Among these alternative energy uses are buildings equipped with solar power systems, which can present a variety of significant hazards should a fire occur. This study focuses on structural fire fighting in buildings and structures involving solar power systems utilizing solar panels that generate thermal and/or electrical energy, with a particular focus on solar photovoltaic panels used for electric power generation. The safety of fire fighters and other emergency first responder personnel depends on understanding and properly handling these hazards through adequate training and preparation. The goal of this project has been to assemble and widely disseminate core principle and best practice information for fire fighters, fire ground incident commanders, and other emergency first responders to assist in their decision making process at emergencies involving solar power systems on buildings. Methods used include collecting information and data from a wide range of credible sources, along with a one-day workshop of applicable subject matter experts that have provided their review and evaluation on the topic.

  • Community Solar Power
    Community Solar Power Obstacles and Opportunities JOHN FARRELL [email protected] Revised November 2010 A publication of New Rules Project 612-379-3815 1313 5th St. SE, Suite 303 www.newrules.org Minneapolis, MN 55414 New Rules Project www.newrules.org i Comment on Revisions The original edition of Community Solar Power received a lot of attention, for which we at the Institute for Local Self-Reliance are very grateful. The grading system we used for community solar projects was of particular interest, especially our offer of higher scores for projects placed on rooftops rather than on the ground. In particular, the excellent folks at the Clean Energy Collective (whose project is featured in this report) engaged us on the criteria we used for rooftop and ground-mounted solar power. After several in-depth conversations, we offer this revision to Community Solar Power and to the grades we provided for solar project location. We think that our revised grading system better reflects the advantages of distributed renewable energy as well as the best efforts of community solar projects to provide their participants with the best value. See the table below for the revised grades (an updated scorecard is in the report). For a more thorough discussion of the location conversation, see this post to our distributed energy web resource, Energy Self-Reliant States: Community Solar: Better on the Roof?

  • World's Largest Solar Power Plant Unveiled in India Elon Musk's Tesla
    World's Largest Solar Power Plant Unveiled in "It's time for the human race to enter India the solar system" Dan Quayle, 44th India has become home to the world's largest solar power plant Vice President of the United States of thanks to a 648-megawatt (MW) facility that has come online in America. the southern part of the country. The previous record holder belonged to the Topaz Solar Farm in California that has a capacity of 550 MW. India has been fast-tracking solar power projects in the past few years thanks to a goalof having 20 gigawatts (GW) of solar power capacity installed by 2022. That goal has spurred some very large solar projects, including a 4 GW plant slated to be built over the next 7 years. Planned solar power projects have grown in size, but each plant takes years to pass through different phases of approval, receive funding and ultimately be built. That's why as we hear about plans for solar power plants with capacities in the thousands of megawatts, the largest ones actually built and running are in the > RESOURCES hundreds of megawatts. None of that should take away from the impressiveness of this new power plant though. The facility, Get Involved with ASES Divisions funded by the Adani Group, is located in Kamuthi, Tamil Nadu Locate an ASES Chapter and covers 10 square kilometers. It consists of 2.5 million Get Up-to-Date Incentives individual solar modules and it's estimated that it will generate enough electricity to power 150,000 homes.

  • My Solarcity Experience
    From: Joe Orawczyk, – a consumer To: the FTC regarding the Competing and Consumer Protection Issues in Solar Power Workshop My SolarCity experience I purchased a 2.65 kW DC photovoltaic (PV) system from SolarCity comprised of ten Kyocera model KU265-6ZPA (made in Mexico) PV panels in 2015. SolarCity did a great job installing the PV system on the roof of my home located in Yermo, California in late December of 2015. Southern California Edison (SCE) subsequently inspected and approved connection of the system to the grid and by mid-February 2016 I was finally generating most of my own electricity from the Sun. My SCE bill for April was $3.26. The system purchase price was $13,515.00. The 30% (worth $4,054.50) federal renewable energy tax credit played an important financial incentive in my decision to procure the system as it effectively reduced the total investment to $9,460.50. This in turn reduces the time to breakeven by 30% as well and is a huge factor in committing to the purchase of a rooftop PV system from a financial perspective. And at my age of 53, it’s a retirement investment too. The way I figure it, this PV system will pay for itself in less than a decade. Once I retire, I’ll enjoy a greatly reduced electric cost of living at a time when my income will also suffer a large reduction. While this was not a selling point suggested by the SolarCity sales representative, it was certainly a financial factor I considered.

  • PV Waste 101
    PV Waste 101 The Solar Industry’s Proactive Plan for Waste Management What are Photovoltaics? Photovoltaic (PV) cells are the most common technology used in solar energy generation. Panels made of PV cells act as semiconductors, converting sunlight into electricity for home, commercial and industrial use. What is the Solar Industry’s Current Position on Recycling? The falling cost of solar in recent years has made renewable energy accessible to more people than ever before and has resulted in an exponential increase in solar adoption. With over 227 gigawatts (GW) of panels installed globally, recycling is important for all PV technologies to ensure clean energy solutions do not pose a waste burden for future generations. Although most PV panels produced today will have a useful life for decades, there is inevitable waste created when panels are damaged during shipment or installation, determined to be defective, or become obsolete. High-value recycling can help minimize life cycle impacts and recover valuable and energy-intensive materials, thereby increasing sustainability within the PV industry. A state-of-the-art recycling network for PV panels also ensures responsible end of life disposal for an ever- growing volume of PV panels, and is a key element of a responsible transition to a clean energy economy. What is the Material Content of PV? 2014 c-Si PV panels typically consist of 2030 glass, aluminum, copper, and 2014 semiconductor materials that a-Si can be successfully recovered 2030 Phase-out expected before 2030 and reused in new PV panels and 2014 other products at the end of their CIGS 2030 useful life.

  • Audit of Solar Power Purchase Agreements December 22, 2020
    Audit of Solar Power Purchase Agreements December 22, 2020 By Onondaga County Comptroller Martin D. Masterpole Report Index Report Section Name Page Section Number I Background and Executive Summary 2 II Scope and Methodology 6 III Findings and Recommendations 7 IV Exhibits 25 V Departmental Responses 30 VI Clarification of Management Response 37 1 SECTION I BACKGROUND AND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background In 2013 and again in 2014, Onondaga County (County) began to pursue solar power solutions using a request for proposals (RFP) process. At the conclusion of the RFP process, the County executed Commercial Purchase and Performance Guarantee agreements (Contracts) with SolarCity Corporation (SolarCity), a company which sells large-scale solar power solutions. The County is currently contracted with Solar City and purchasing solar energy at three sites—Oak Orchard Lagoons, Oak Orchard Waste Water Treatment Plant and Jamesville Correctional Facility. The Contracts with SolarCity included the construction of arrays of solar energy collecting panels to be built at the three sites. While the County retains ownership of the land at the sites, Solar City owns and maintains the panels. Each site has a 20-year contract and upon conclusion, the County has the option to purchase the solar panel systems from SolarCity. In addition, the Contracts define the terms for the location of the panels, set-up requirements for the panels (tilt, azimuth, etc.), price per kilowatt hour (kWh) per year, expected first year and every five year production as well as having a SolarGuard readable meter at each site. The County pays SolarCity a set fee per kWh for the use of the panels (with a 2% annual accelerator increase) and the County receives credits per kWh from National Grid for the energy collected by the panels.
