New Google maps to guide solar, wind placement Where should new solar and wind power facilities go? Seems many of the best potential sites, including rugged, windswept regions in the Rocky Mountains to the sun-baked Mojave Desert, contain swathes of land legally set aside as national parks, or support what remains of an endangered species' dwindling habitat, for example. [More] Scientific AmericanMolecular Alignment Gives Monolayers the Edge in Bendable Semiconductor (PhysOrg.com) -- Reprogrammable product tags, bendable displays and flexible solar cells--the field of organic semiconductor research is advancing these possibilities toward reality. By layering hydrocarbon molecules on thin plastic sheets, scientists can make flexible electronics on the cheap. Physorg.comSolar energy farm proposed for Medford airport A solar energy farm that could provide enough power for 2,000 homes has been proposed for the Medford airport. Topix.netMIT students build supercharged solar car MIT students scientists are putting the finish touches to Eleanor, one of the most advanced solar cars yet designed - hitting speeds of 80 mph and driving up to 200 miles in the pitch dark . MsnWind powers Antarctica`s first zero-emissions research station Antarctica’s newly inaugurated Princess Elisabeth Station is the white continent's first research facility that doesn't emit any greenhouse gases, according to the Belgium-based International Polar Foundation that designed and constructed it. The research center, open to scientists from around the globe, is located about 120 miles (200 kilometers) from the coast in Eastern Antarctica, due directly south of Africa’s southern tip. The station will draw power from wind turbines (eight for now, and nine next year) and solar panel arrays rather than from the diesel generators that power most other stations. [More] Scientific AmericanThe Satellite That Aims to Succeed Where Icarus Failed NASA's Solar Probe Plus study the sun from close up, braving temperatures that would melt stainless steel. To survive, the probe will hide behind a nearly 3-yard-wide thermal shield. The shield is designed to keep the probe's scientific instruments at a comfortable average of 86°F and to constantly adjust its orientation while the spacecraft races along at up to 450,000 miles per hour. Discover MagazineAll quiet on the sunspot front The sun's tumult waxes and wanes in a fairly predictable cycle, with sunspots, patches of intense magnetic activity on the solar surface, peaking in number every 11 or so years. We currently find ourselves in a solar minimum, a period of reduced solar activity, and a deep one at that. Last year was the second-quietest sunspot year of the past century, as the sun was blank on 72.7 percent of the days. [More] Scientific AmericanSolar energy debated Lawmakers were told Monday the solar energy industry will have a major impact on Nevada's economy, assuming that tax abatements are offered to attract such companies to the state. Topix.netIEUA Completes 3.5-MW of Solar Projects Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA), a municipal water agency, and SunPower Corporation have completed 3.5-megawatts (MW) of solar power installations at four IEUA facilities in Chino, Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga, California. As a result of the installation, the agency expects to save a close to US $500,000 per year in electricity costs. Renewable Energy WorldSolar Power Is Here and There. But Can It Be Everywhere? Ideas are taking shape in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (EUMENA) for a truly comprehensive, continent-wide energy landscape of the future. And some of the strategies coming out of planning bodies 'over there' deserve serious attention on the North American continent. They also deserve a more liberal and disinterested response from legislators and regulators at the local level than these officials have historically been wont to give. And that makes us wonder whether we can rise above the technical challenges involved, only to drown in a sea of regulation and self-interest. Renewable Energy World1 2 |
