Installing Solar Fields On Brownfield Sites Across North AmericaShelton CT (SPX) Sep 23, 2010 OPEL Solar and TRUENORTH Solar and Environmental have announced a strategic partnership to install utility-scale solar fields on brownfield sites across North America that have been deemed otherwise unusable. Brownfield sites are generally defined as abandoned or underused industrial and commercial facilities available for re-use. Expansion or redevelopment of such sites are usually complicated by real or perceived environmental contamination. By installing solar installations on urban brown ... read more |

Boston MA (SPX) Sep 06, 2010Plants are good at doing what scientists and engineers have been struggling to do for decades: converting sunlight into stored energy, and doing so reliably day after day, year after year. Now some MIT scientists have succeeded in mimicking a key aspect of that process. One of the problems with harvesting sunlight is that the sun's rays can be highly destructive to many materials. Sunlight ... more 
San Jose CA (SPX) Sep 06, 2010Silicon Genesis has announced that it has started production of solar wafers using its new high volume manufacturing PolyMax system. In an industry first, SiGen has produced 85 m thick, 156 mm square kerf-free monocrystalline silicon wafers. Kerf is the material converted into saw dust, inherent in all sawing processes. This achievement delivers the first true mono c-Si kerf-free wafering ... more

Can The World Be Powered Mainly By Solar And Wind Energy?Boston MA (SPX) Aug 30, 2010 Continuous research and development of alternative energy could soon lead to a new era in human history in which two renewable sources - solar and wind - will become Earth's dominant contributor of energy, a Nobel laureate said here at a special symposium at the American Chemical Society's 240th National Meeting. Walter Kohn, Ph.D., who shared the 1998 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, noted that total oil and natural gas production, which today provides about 60 percent of global energy consumption, is e ... read more |
