Innovation: The Uber of solar power?

EnergyBiz – The peer-to-peer sharing economy is finding its way into every industry. From Uber to Airbnb, companies are doing all they can to take advantage of crowdsourcing to create a large-scale, paying consumer base. Now, solar start-up Yeloha thinks it has found a way to apply this new, social way of doing business to clean energy.
Solar energy, of course, is becoming an increasingly viable way of powering the home. Over the last decade alone, the cost of installing solar power has dropped by more than 73% according to the Solar Energy Industries Association. Residential solar costs alone have plummeted by 45% in just the last five years and there is currently enough solar electricity generated in the U.S. to run more than 4 million homes. So why are fewer than 1% of American households running on solar energy?
Yeloha Co-founder and CEO Amit Rosner says the problem is simple: access. Tiếp tục đọc “Innovation: The Uber of solar power?”

Thế giới chuyển dần đến 100% năng lượng tái tạo – điện, sưởi ấm – làm mát và giao thông vận tải
Ngày càng nhiều đô thị, thành phố, tiểu bang và thậm chí toàn bộ quốc gia thiết lập mục tiêu 100% năng lượng tái tạo, trong đó chính sách hỗ trợ đóng vai trò rất quan trọng cho sự thành công này.
July 31, 2015 By Junko Movellan, Correspondent.
Việc chỉ sử dụng năng lượng tái tạo trong ít nhất một lĩnh vực hiện nay đã trở thành một mục tiêu khả thi cho 8 quốc gia. Diane Moss, Giám đốc sáng lập của Viện Chính sách Năng lượng tái tạo 100, đã bàn luận về bước tiến đáng chú ý này tại một trong những buổi hội nghị tại chương trình Intersolar Bắc Mỹ[1] năm 2015.
Đan Mạch, Scotland, và Aruba là một trong những quốc gia đặt mục tiêu sử dụng 100 phần trăm năng lượng tái tạo. Bên cạnh 8 quốc gia đã nêu, Viện Chính sách Năng lượng tái tạo 100 cho đến nay đã công bố 55 thành phố, 60 khu vực và 9 dịch vụ công cộng trên thế giới đã chính thức thiết lập mục tiêu 100 phần trăm năng lượng tái tạo, và Moss chỉ ra rằng con số này có thể còn lớn hơn và đang tăng lên đều đặn.
Business Operation Models for Solar Home Systems (SHS)

There are different ways of operating a Solar Home Systems (SHS) business. Although each SHS program has unique characteristics, there are two general approaches to bringing Photovoltaic (PV) to customers in the developing world: Open market approach In the most common approach, described by the World Bank as the open market approach, there is a roughly unrestricted market in which PV dealers and developers can conduct direct sales and — with government, donor, and nongovernmental organization involvement — establish PV microcredit, leasing, or direct sale programs.

The prettiest route to the Vinh Tan 2 power plant follows the coast road in Binh Thuan Province, past endless foundering beachfront resorts and through some of the strongest coastal winds in the country.
Just five kilometers beyond Vinh Hao (the town where the namesake mineral water firm was founded) traffic comes to a crawl. Backhoes and bulldozers have dug a gully that separates the row of rice shops, motels and flophouses on your left from the National Highway. Tiếp tục đọc “Vietnam’s dirty growth”

EU Cracks Down on China Solar Cheats
Renewableenergyworld.com – A crackdown has officially begun on Chinese solar panel makers who skirted a deal to avoid anti-dumping tariffs in Europe, with word that the EU has taken formal action to punish 3 violators. The action will see anti-dumping tariffs imposed on Canadian Solar (Nasdaq: CSIQ), ReneSola (NYSE: SOL) and ET Solar, reviving a threat they previously avoided by agreeing to voluntarily raise their prices as part of a breakthrough deal in late 2013.
Western solar panel makers in the US and Europe had long complained that they were at an unfair disadvantage to their Chinese peers, which received a wide array of state subsidies through policies like cheap government loans and tax rebates for their exports. Washington responded by levying anti-dumping tariffs on the Chinese companies, while the EU took a more conciliatory approach by signing a deal that saw the Chinese agree to voluntarily raise their prices to levels comparable with their western rivals.
