Solar had a record-setting Q1 2021 and accounted for 58% of all new electric capacity additions in the United States. Renewable energy accounted for nearly 100% of all new electric capacity in Q1. It s incredible to see the solar industry pass 100 gigawatts after the policy and regulatory hurdles we ve faced over the last few years, said Abigail Ross Hopper, president and CEO of SEIA. While we re poised for more growth, we must accelerate solar and storage deployment to address the climate crisis and reach President Biden s ambitious clean energy goals. Long-term policy certainty is the best way to do that, and we re urging Congress to act this summer.

Informa Markets – Engineering’s advanced battery technology and electric and hybrid vehicle events taking place September 15 through 17 will feature an expansive expo floor and educational and networking opportunities.
The STI-H250™, solar tracker model selected for these facilities, is ideal for challenging projects , explains Ignacio Irureta, STI Norland project manager. Dual-row trackers are designed to adapt to uneven terrains and ground contours, optimizing the use of available land and increasing power generation .
A special technical feature of this project of that STI-H250™ solar trackers employ a tracking logic which enhances performance on cloudy days. This logic was developed and successfully tested in previous projects supplied by STI Norland.
These solar trackers are also equipped with large photovoltaic panels which enable in-series connection of 38 modules. To do that, STI Norland designed a solution to inter-connect solar modules from different trackers or different rows of the same tracker.
In 2020, people spent more time in their homes, but they also spent more on their homes, said EnergySage CEO and founder Vikram Aggarwal. At the same time, the consumer mindset has shifted, with interest in resiliency increasing significantly, whether due to the uncertainty of COVID-19, the wildfires and power shut offs in the West, major storm events in the East, or, most recently, the winter storm in Texas. We re excited-and proud-that the solar and storage industries are helping consumers to become more resilient and keep the lights on under any circumstances.
