Distributed Energy Systems (DES) are the central nervous system of the green energy revolution, which is why we're so big on the thinking behind it, the tools that are modernizing it, and the widespread embrace of the systems for reducing carbon outputs, improving resiliency, and more. Much more. Here are just some of the reasons we're so high on DES. [...]
A new market survey claims global spending on solar panels will reach $273.15B by 2029, up from $187.69B in 2023, representing a CAGR of 6.45%. This growth is being driven by a number of factors, including: Numerous providers of hardware, design, reliability, and service entering the space Continued advancements in innovation Government subsidies to drive adoption and reduce carbon output [...]
Eager to support public and private sector organizations focused on meeting the nation's rapidly growing demand for distributed energy services, the Dept. of Energy (DOE) has released a list of tools and services the agency will make available facilitate their efforts. With an eye on clean energy production for the massively expanding AI industry, the Secretary of Energy Advisory Board [...]
In case the world still hadn't caught on to the power and potential of microgrid technology, the world's largest off-grid, solar-powered microgrid is beginning to take shape along Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast. Aptly named the Red Sea Project as part of the Saudi kingdom's ambitious SaudiVision2030 initiative, the microgrid will encompass 28,000 square kilometers and power critical parts of [...]
This article is a reprint from The Washington Informed, dated May 15, 2024. Brian McLaughlin, an experienced leader with more than 26 years of professional experience in the nonprofit, public and for-profit areas, has co-founded a business, PlanitWorks, that operates in the booming green energy industry. “I want to drive the clean energy revolution into all communities,” said McLaughlin, a [...]
With the global thirst for energy expected to double by 2050 (driven by AI, EVs, and data centers), experts believe renewable energy is going to take center stage in helping to meet those demands. Facing historic challenges in both the demand for energy as well as top-down commitments to reducing energy pollution, utilities recognize that renewable sources are their best [...]
In an age when missions to Mars are actually in the planning stages, it seems difficult to imagine that nearly two-thirds of Africa's population lack access to reliable power and the innumerable benefits that come with it. Yet in the same way the advent of cellular technology enabled the African continent to simply skip cumbersome, costly landline infrastructure and move [...]
Few recognize that heat pump technology has been around for nearly two centuries. Fewer still know this technology was invented in large part to improve energy efficiencies and help the planet as part of that deal. Yes, the very same technology that governments, utilities, and property owners are using to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions has pretty much been [...]
