Pine Gate completes financing for two Michigan solar projects
The two projects will bring more than 50 MW of solar to Consumers Energy customers across the state.
PV and energy storage expected to be 62% of U.S. capacity additions 2022-23
The U.S. is expected to add 78 GW generating capacity over the next two years, 49 GW of which is expected to be large-scale solar and energy storage.
Washington looks to re-establish rooftop solar incentive program
A bill aims to re-establish the state’s former highly effective solar incentive program, which ran from 2017 to late 2018 and led to the installation of nearly 7,500 residential energy systems, 380 commercial energy systems, and more than 100 MW of solar capacity.
Sunrise brief: Utility-scale solar + storage project planned for Hawaii
Also on the rise: Beaming solar from space is one step closer to reality. Wisconsin looks to add 165 MW of solar. Batteries to the rescue: Changes to California’s net-metering program may seriously erode the value of rooftop residential solar without the aid of battery energy storage. Missouri solar project acquired by Scout Clean Energy.
All I want for Christmas is a solar-powered greenhouse
Heliene is developing the solar integrated greenhouse market via multiple angles – integrating standard panels into structures while also developing “quantum dot” panels that shift the photon wavelength away from crop damaging UV, and into the orange and red wavelengths that plants crave.
Scout Clean Energy acquires 112 MW solar project in Missouri
The $120 million project was developed by Azimuth Renewables.
Alliant looks to bring 165 MW of solar to Wisconsin across three projects
All three installations are part of the utility’s plan to add 1,089 MW of solar in the state by the end of 2023.
Utility-scale solar + storage project announced for the Island of Hawaii
A 30 MW solar PV project on the Island of Hawaii will provide enough power for approximately 15,000 households.
Doral acquires Georgia solar project from Avangrid
The 150 MW Brenneman Solar Project is being developed in Macon County, Georgia and brings Doral Renewables’ development pipeline to more than 5 GW.
U.S. identified land that could support 100 GW of federal solar infrastructure
About 1,400 square miles of public land could be leased by the federal government for solar development, which would effectively double U.S. installed capacity. The Bureau of Land Management took a first step, approving 465 MW solar, 400 MW storage in California across two projects.
