Why 210mm Standardization in the Solar Industry is Crucial for Meeting Decarbonization Goals
To meet ambitious decarbonization targets set by federal, state, and local governments, the U.S. needs access to as many watts of PV capacity as it can install. Despite PV capacity growth surging each year, the current pace still lags far behind what the country should be installing to keep pace with achieving its goal for …
Agrivoltaics Creating New Avenues for Fresh Solar Opportunities
One of the emerging frontiers for solar development involves combining solar power generation with agricultural operations on a single plot of land. This strategy, known as agrivoltaics, is growing rapidly and presents a host of new opportunities for solar developers. The mixed land use offers financial benefits for PV power plant owners, farmers, and ranchers. …
