Report Says Record Wind Energy Capacity Installed in 2023

Last year was a record year for wind-capacity installations with more than 100 gigawatts of new wind power installed, a recent industry trade association report says. According to the Global Wind Energy Council's latest Global Wind Report, new installations across the globe increased by 50% from 2022 to last year, making 2023 the best year on record for new wind-project installations. As years of technological advancements have made developing and deploying renewables cheaper and cheaper, wind-capacity installation rates in the United States and across the globe steadily increased before peaking in 2023 with 117 gigawatts of new capacity in only…

Green-Energy Projects Face Financing Woes Amid High Interest Rates

After experiencing unprecedented growth that saw the number of renewable energy projects increase several times over, green-energy projects could potentially face a capital crunch due to high interest rates. Solar and wind project installations may be at an all-time high, but several reputable publications predict that several factors, including high interest rates, could make it difficult for renewable energy projects to access funding and impact green-energy commodity prices in the future. Several years of cost reductions and legislative support, as well as an explosion of investor interest, directed massive investment into green energy and resulted in significant wind- and solar-power…

Analysis Suggests England Can Produce 13x Current Green Energy on 3% of Land

A recent analysis has revealed that England has the capacity to produce 13 times more green energy than it is currently producing using less than 3% of its land mass. Like most major nations, England is looking to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels to cut greenhouse-gas emissions to combat global-climate change. This would require a mass transition from oil and natural gas in power generation to renewable energy sources such as solar and wind over the next couple of decades. According to a study from Exter University, England could supply this growing demand and produce enough renewable energy from…

How Software Can Help Data Centers Cut Energy Use

The race to cut greenhouse-gas emissions and achieve carbon neutrality by mid-century has left businesses in energy-intensive industries scrambling to cut their energy use. With most of the developed world's electricity coming from fossil-fuel-fired power plants, sectors such as data storage, which require a lot of power to run, contribute to a significant portion of global emissions. Efficient software use could be the key to helping data centers cut down on energy use and limit their impact on the environment. Data centers are facilities that store and power servers that house the cloud, or online storage facilities that allow people…

US EPA Announces $20B in Grants to Banks Funding Green-Energy Projects

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced $20 billion in federal green bank grants to eight nonprofit organizations and development banks. The massive investment could potentially fund thousands to tens of thousands of projects meant to mitigate climate change in economically disadvantaged communities. Additionally, these projects have the potential to help Americans cut their carbon footprints and even save some money. These projects include energy-efficiency residency improvements such as residential heat pumps as well as large-scale projects such as community cooling centers and electric-vehicle-charging stations. At the funding's unveiling, Vice President Kamala Harris said the tens of billions of dollars…

US Seeks Ways to Exploit Geothermal Power at Scale

The United States is looking to supplement its green-energy production by tapping into the almost-limitless supply of heat in the planet's crust. President Joe Biden's administration has already made major investments into developing the country's solar- and wind-generation-capabilities, but it will take significantly more investment to fully integrate green energy into America's energy grid. Exploiting geothermal energy at scale would grant the U.S. access to a clean-energy source that can be tapped into for renewable energy at any time. Unlike solar and wind, which are generally dependent on the weather and time of day, geothermal energy can produce power when…
