The Trump administration has announced another policy that will likely harm the U.S. renewable energy industry. New guidance from the Treasury Department announced August 15 will make it even harder for wind and solar power projects to take advantage of federal tax credits, which already were under fire from the White House. Friday’s move is […]

One of Brazil’s largest renewable energy developers, mostly known for its wind power projects, is adding significant solar power generation capacity to its portfolio. Casa dos Ventos, which has developed one of every four wind power facilities in Brazil and has about 35 GW of renewable energy deployed in the country, will utilize equipment from […]

An Arizona-based energy developer, owner, and operator of power generation projects said one of its major solar-plus-storage facilities has entered full commercial operation in California. Arevon Energy on August 7 held a ceremony to celebrate completion of the second phase of the Eland Solar-plus-Storage Project, located near Mojave in Kern County. The two-phase Eland installation […]

A Texas-headquartered renewable energy group said it has started construction of two solar power projects in southern Oklahoma, expanding the company’s solar portfolio in the state. Leeward Renewable Energy (LRE) recently announced it has broken ground for the Twelvemile Solar 1 & 2 projects, a combined 152-MW solar facility. The company in late July said […]

An agricultural farm in New York will add solar power at the site in a project designed to benefit both farmers and the solar energy community. Lightstar Renewables LLC on August 4 announced the launch of the Plains Road Agrivoltaics project, which integrates solar energy with agriculture on the DiMartino Farm in Montgomery, New York. […]

Arizona-headquartered Arevon Energy said it has started construction of the Nighthawk Energy Storage Project in Poway, California. The company on July 31 provided more details of the 300-MW/1,200-MWh installation that represents a $600-million investment. Arevon will own and operate Nighthawk. The company in 2021 signed a long-term contract under which the energy storage facility will […]

Biogas doesn’t just offer a backup plan for tech companies seeking more power; it provides a blueprint for sustainability. By transforming landfill, agricultural, and wastewater emissions into usable power, biogas solves two problems at once: it reduces fugitive methane emissions, a potent greenhouse gas (GHG), and generates renewable electricity. This is energy that’s good for […]

On July 4, 2025, President Trump officially signed the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA) into law. The White House called it “a once-in-a-generation piece of legislation.” The power sector is among

When you’re managing 400-plus solar sites scattered across multiple states, a single transformer failure can cost thousands of dollars per day in lost revenue.

The white paper underscores the transformative potential of hybridizing offshore wind energy, emphasizing the integration of hybrid technologies, e.g. energy storage systems (BESS), to enhance the reliability, stability, and economic feasibility of offshore wind farms. This approach mitigates the intermittency of wind power, resulting in a more consistent and predictable energy output. By contributing to grid stability […]
