Community Solar Landfill Project In New Jersey Is A Win–Win–Win–Win

Clean energy is great anywhere, but it’s especially appreciated and valuable on land that can’t be used for much else. Landfill solar projects have been a very popular type of clean energy project as a result. The latest such project to get under construction is a 10 megawatt (MW) community solar landfill project being developed […]

Why 2023 could be the year of the cheap—or cheaper—EV

Despite ongoing supply chain issues and headwinds like price inflation, EV penetration in America nearly doubled in the U.S. in the first ten months of 2022, going to 5.3% of all vehicles sold, versus 2.9% last year.

Here’s why 2023 could be the year we’ll see cheaper EVs.

How Are Lithium-Ion Batteries That Store Solar & Wind Power Made?

The renewable energy transition involves harnessing epic forces of nature. Sleek solar panels forged from silver and silica from the depths of the Earth translate the sun’s blindingly fiery light energy into electricity. Wind turbines with blades each the size of a 12-story building punctuate the skyline of wind-swept fields and help power entire cities. What is one […]
