Everyone knows energy storage is the key to unlocking renewable energy’s full potential, right? Well, not always, says new research from Stanford University.

New research conducted by NPD Solarbuzz and featured on their blog this past week shows that Japanese solar photovoltaic “PV” installations have now passed 10 GW for cumulative PV capacity, only the fifth country to reach the mark

Australia faces at least another year of policy uncertainty and stagnation in the renewables sector, Brazil has attracted a huge amount of interest from the developers of wind farms and solar farms for a government auction in November.

According to PV Magazine, 313 MW was added in July. This year alone 2,110 MW of new solar capacity have gone up in the European country.

Solar panels, when mounted on a building roof, not only generate electricity, but they also create a cooling effect, according to researchers from University of California, San Diego.

The world's largest solar-powered boat has docked on the banks of the Seine River, its final port of call after a three-month voyage across the Atlantic Ocean to study how the Gulf Stream and climate change could influence each other.

Modern water purification methods exist that can easily get rid of water contaminants, even salt and bacteria, but some organic toxins and toxic metals, such as arsenic and hexavalent chromium need special processing to be removed.

Last year, photovoltaic solar power in Italy accounted for some 5.6% of the total energy mix produced, and the number is only increasing.

A three-dimensional chessboard-like structure that may soon harness the sun to create power for your toaster, television, or the city you live in.

Morocco said Tuesday it is "very confident" of finding the investment needed to build vast solar power plants in its southern desert regions and become a world-class solar energy producer.

Bosch Solar Energy (Arnstadt, Germany) and the Institute for Solar Energy Research Hamelin (ISFH, Emmerthal, Germany) have produced a 22.1% efficient crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar photovoltaic (PV) cell using ion implanted interdigitated back junction back contact (IBC) technology.

Germany, where solar rulz and carbon drools (generally speaking), has more rooftop solar than any other country, and now it has a rooftop system the likes of which it has never before seen.

A lot happens in America every four minutes. During that short time period, 30 babies are born, 4,080 McDonald’s Big Macs are consumed, and 48,000 tons of CO2 are emitted.

Researchers at MIT have come up with a new design for a rechargeable flow battery that does away with the expensive and ineffective membrane of previous designs.

With plenty of sun-drenched, wide open spaces, Australia is an obvious place for large-scale solar power plants.

A solar power plant which is intended to float is currently under development by a team which is led by SP Gon Choudhury, Director at Development Consultants Private Limited (DCL Group) and Vice Chairman at Calcutta Institute of Technology.

In Italy, solar PV power production attained an unprecedented high of 13,810 GWh in the first seven months of the year.

To develop a Sustainable Energy Roadmap, Worldwatch analyzes an area’s potential for energy efficiency gains and undertakes detailed GIS mapping of local renewable energy resources, including biomass, solar, and wind.
