How Solar Tracking Systems Increase Solar Productivity
A solar tracking system makes your solar system more powerful by orienting the solar panels such that the sunlight falls perpendicularly on the solar panels. In this way, a solar system with a tracking system produces more power than a traditional solar system. In this blog, we will discuss how a solar tracker works, and the different types of solar trackers commonly used in solar systems.

Benefits and Challenges of Solar Carports
Solar energy continues its meteoric rise as a sustainable and cost-effective way to power our lives. But what if we could harness the sun's power while simultaneously creating valuable shade? Enter the solar carport – a unique structure that combines a traditional carport with a rooftop solar panel array. In 2024, solar carports offer a compelling solution for businesses and homeowners seeking to embrace clean energy and enhance their property.

Analysts Say Solar Is Saving Texans From Widespread Power Outages Amid Extreme Heat
A sweltering heatwave has gripped Texas over the last two weeks, pushing temperatures to 115°F in parts of the state—but its status as a new leader in the development of solar power has reportedly protected many in the state from a catastrophic loss of power. An intense heat dome—in which an area of high pressure traps heat underneath it—has settled over northern Mexico and is expected to persist next week and potentially beyond, likely causing the heat index to reach high into the 100s across Texas and top 120° in the southern part of the state in the coming days.

The Failure of California Electricity Policy in One Image
In a few weeks it will be one year since the article “California just hit 95% renewable energy. Will other states come along for the ride?” appeared in the Los Angeles Times. Its author, reporter Sammy Roth, had learned that California briefly generated 95% of the electricity consumers were using from renewable sources a few days earlier, and he was elated.

The first permanent electrified road for electric vehicles will be constructed in Sweden
With the most recent EU regulation requiring zero CO2 emissions from automobiles starting in 2035, European nations are scrambling to set up the infrastructure (electrified road) required for the mobility of electric vehicles (EVs). In terms of sustainability requirements and the adoption of renewable energy, Sweden is appropriately upholding its pioneering reputation.

Using photosynthesis for Martian occupation—while making space travel more sustainable
Researchers are working on sustainable technology to harvest solar power in space—which could supplement life support systems on the moon and Mars. In a study published in Nature Communications, scientists assess a new technique which could convert renewable, green energy from outside the Earth's atmosphere. They are taking advantage of photosynthesis—the chemical process plants undergo every day to create energy—to help the space industry become more sustainable.
