By: Laura Panjwan Although solar energy is one of the cleanest and most abundant renewable energy sources available, the space required to install solar systems can be a barrier to its implementation. In countries where farmland is limited, solar panel insulation just isn’t a realistic option, said Jan Ingenhoff, PhD, a research professor at the Institute of […]

Improved Forecasting Of Sunlight Could Help Increase Solar Energy Generation
The Sun is becoming an increasingly important source of clean electricity. Accurate sunlight forecasts being developed by A*STAR researchers could greatly improve the performance of solar energy plants, making it a viable alternative to carbon-based sources of power. A photovoltaic power plant can cover up to 50 square kilometers of the Earth’s surface and can generate up […]

The Case For Pursuing Clean Energy Through Systems Thinking
By: Richard Piacentini The Center for Sustainable Landscapes (CSL) generates all of its own energy and treats all storm and sanitary water captured on-site. An integral part of the Phipps visitor experience, it is the only building to meet four of the highest green certifications: the Living Building Challenge; LEED Platinum; WELL Building Platinum; and Four-Stars Sustainable […]
