rPlus Energies hosts 200 MW Utah solar facility ground-breaking
Appaloosa Solar 1 sits adjacent to one of Utah’s earliest utility-scale solar projects, the 80 MW Three Peaks Solar facility.
Novel redox flow battery paves way for low-cost storage
Researchers have facilitated the decoupling of power from energy design by incorporating a conducting carbon slurry in the negative electrolyte of an all-iron flow battery. In a new study, they describe the design considerations for slurry iron redox flow battery scalability.
U.S. DOE offers $43 million to support communities in building resilience
Research projects in 19 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico will help with energy planning, increasing grid resilience, and restoring power after disasters.

KB Home announced the energy-smart, all-electric, solar, and battery powered new home community comes in partnership with the Department of Energy, SunPower, University of California, Irvine, and more.
Sunrun selected to deploy 17 MW VPP network in Puerto Rico
The virtual power plant will combine more than 7,000 Sunrun solar plus battery systems installed at Puerto Rico homes.
People on the move: Perch Energy, Stracker Solar, QCells USA, and more
Job moves in solar, storage, cleantech, utilities, and energy transition finance.
50 states of solar incentives: Kentucky
With relatively low electricity rates and financial incentives that are few and far between, Kentucky residents and business owners have not had much motivation to go solar, but change is on the horizon.
Wisconsin groups find 100% clean energy + electrification to be ambitious but feasible
100% clean power plus electrification in Wisconsin would cost the same, when counting health benefits, as continuing “business as usual,” and would achieve four times the emissions reductions as 100% clean power alone, found a study sponsored by two Wisconsin groups.
Sunrise brief: Erthos rackless, earth-mounted solar steps ahead with 107 MW MOU
