Solar Power Leads Investment Boom Totaling $3.3Tn

Recent data has revealed that total global investments in clean energy are expected to reach a whopping $3.3 trillion. A report from the International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that green energy investments will hit record levels as investors become increasingly interested in renewable energy. As the most dominant source of clean energy, solar is predicted to attract $450 billion in funding in 2025. Despite the economic and geopolitical challenges the world is facing, investor interest in renewable energy technology is still robust, and clean energy is set to attract two times more investment than fossil fuels. According to the agency,…

AI Helps Grids in Managing and Forecasting Renewable Energy Intermittency

Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing an increasingly larger role in managing and forecasting intermittency in renewable energy systems. As countries grow more reliant on energy generated from clean sources, dealing with renewable energy intermittency has become a pressing need. Unlike coal and other fossil fuels that can produce energy on demand, renewable sources are most effective when the time, weather, and atmospheric conditions are ideal. For instance, solar farms are at their most optimum during the day at moderate temperatures, while wind farms work effectively when they are installed on flat terrains with high-speed winds. Energy production drops and can…

South Dakota Establishes Itself as a Renewable Energy Leader

South Dakota has spent the last decade or so quietly establishing itself as a leader in America's renewable energy space. Surprisingly, the Midwestern Republican-led state has built an energy portfolio that's so incredibly clean that it rivals notoriously green states like Vermont, Oregon, and Washington State. Most people picture predominantly Democratic states like California when they think of states with notably high shares of green energy in their energy mix. However, South Dakota draws a majority of its energy from renewable energy sources despite being Republican-led. In fact, South Dakota now generates more energy from renewables than any other state…

How Weather May Impact the Operation and Reliability of Renewable Energy

Most forms of renewable energy are intermittent in nature. This means that they reach peak power production during specific hours of the day or under certain weather conditions, and produce little to no renewable energy when conditions aren’t ideal. As green energy demand surges worldwide, there are mounting concerns about how weather can affect the reliability and operation of renewable energies like solar and wind. In late April, a massive power outage struck Portugal, Spain, and parts of France leaving 55 million people without power for 10 hours, and raising questions about the role of weather and green energy in…
