Renewable energy sources are energy sources that can be constantly replenished through various natural processes. Unlike non-renewable fossil fuels, they form cleaner and more environmentally friendly alternatives. In the past, renewables were not so widely used as the technology was quite basic and prices to set them up were quite high. However, this has changed …
The Global EV Outlook is a yearly publication that discusses current developments in electric vehicle mobility around the world and is developed with the help of members from the Electric Vehicles Initiative (EVI). This edition of the report features the analysis of the performance of electric cars and competing powertrain options in terms of GHG …
Solar power has evolved tremendously since the photovoltaic effect was first observed by Alexandre-Edmond Becquerel in the 19th century. Nowadays, new advances in solar panel technology are introduced every year, as scientists work hard to improve the efficiency of solar cells. Promising technologies in solar cell manufacturing, solar energy storage, and solar design tech have …
Climate change is now one of the most widely discussed topics that I’m sure you’ve come across at least once. The problem is that there are too many unknowns about the cause and effects of climate change. To make this idea easier to comprehend, let’s try to break the problem down into simple, everyday solutions …
THREE MEANINGFUL STEPS TO REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT Read More »
Solar energy is a clean and renewable source of energy that provides reliable power and reduces the carbon footprint. Solar energy can be used as additional power to the grid-connected power and provides power in times of extensive power usage to reduce high electricity bills.

UNDERSTANDING CLIMATE CHANGE AND WHAT LIES AHEAD Read More »
The benefits of plastic are undeniable. It is cheap, easy to produce, and lightweight. This is precisely what has led to the boom in plastic production in the last century. The growth in global plastic production was first realized in 1950. Since then, the production of plastic has increased nearly 200-fold to over 350 million …
Mounting systems are essential for the appropriate design and function of a solar photovoltaic system. They provide the structural support needed to sustain solar panels at the optimum tilt, and can even affect the overall temperature of the system. Based on the selection of the solar mounting structure, the cooling mechanism will vary. Ground-mounted solar …
The Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change is a body of the United Nation responsible for studying climate change and designing a global response to it. From time to time, IPCC publishes its latest findings in its annual reports. This Special Report on Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change dives …
With our ever-increasing demands for electricity, it is necessary not to completely depend on fossil fuels for generation, but to also utilize the untapped potential of various renewable energy sources. Decades ago, solar wasn’t a viable technology to meet our power requirements, but thanks to advancements in PV technology, there is a drastic change in …
