First Solar kept producing them in Ohio after most of the industry moved to China. President Biden wants many more domestic manufacturers.

In its first year, the new corps could put 20,000 young people to work in areas such as forestry and clean energy. “We did it,” a Philly activist said.

The American Climate Corps will create jobs, skills, and opportunities throughout Appalachia while simultaneously tackling the climate crisis

Major solar panel suppliers have announced the construction of three new factories, collectively adding 15 GW of manufacturing capacity. In 2021, there was only 7 GW of module manufacturing capacity in the United States.

Do you have a big, bold idea for a technology that will help deploy more solar energy?
Sign up by October 6 to compete in the U.S. Department of Energy’s American-Made Solar Prize Round 7! This $4 million competition is designed to accelerate solar innovations and help budding entrepreneurs power the clean energy revolution.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Electricity announced the four winners of the American-Made High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Prize. This $200,000 prize—$50,000 awarded to each winning team—incentivized competitors to share new technology solutions that improve the performance and resilience of the U.S. energy grid

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Wind Energy Technologies Office (WETO) and Office of Electricity (OE) plan to fund research to drive innovation and reduce costs of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) voltage source converter (VSC) transmission systems. HVDC transmission systems are more efficient than traditional alternating current (AC) transmission systems for transmitting electricity over long distances while minimizing power losses.

Join the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy on September 7th / 12 - 2 PM ET for their first webinar in the Careers in Clean Energy series.

The Philadelphia Energy Authority released a Request for Proposals Monday that could see 750 low- to moderate-income households get solar panels installed on their roofs.

JUMP into STEM is back with three new challenges and more opportunities for university students interested in building science. The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Building Technologies Office’s annual competition kicks off its sixth year August 1, 2023.

… to fund residential solar programs that lower energy costs for families and advance environmental justice through Investing in America agenda.

Agriculture and solar: a winning combination for farmers, the climate and now — thanks to two recently introduced bills — maybe the Senate, too.

U.S. senators on both sides of the aisle have recently proposed two bills to boost agrivoltaics, the double-duty climate solution that pairs solar panels (photovoltaics) with agriculture — or closely related land uses that benefit farmers and ecosystems.

The celebrated Bright Solar Futures program went on, but without its key hands-on element.

Researchers at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) have discovered a new method to increase the efficiency of solar cells by a factor of 1,000. The team of scientists achieved this breakthrough by creating crystalline layers of barium titanate, strontium titanate, and calcium titanate, which were alternately placed on top of one another in a lattice structure.

Did you know that transitioning to a clean energy economy protects every American’s fundamental human right to a clean, healthy environment?

Funding from President Biden’s Investing in America Agenda Will Support Creation of Quality, Clean Energy Careers, and Supercharge America’s Clean Energy Future.

The Homer City coal-burning power station – Pennsylvania’s largest coal plant – is going to be retired permanently in July 2023.

Philadelphia students are building cars powered by solar panels to take part in a race from the Philadelphia Solar Energy Association.

WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.), Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies, and U.S. Senator Mike Braun (R-Ind.), a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee and the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Food and Nutrition, Specialty Crops, Organics, and Research, are introducing the bipartisan Agrivoltaics Research and Demonstration Act of 2023.

The Biden administration announced more than $80 million in funding Thursday in a push to produce more solar panels in the U.S., make solar energy available to more people, and pursue superior alternatives to the ubiquitous sparkly panels made with silicon.
