Made in America: How Increased Domestic Energy Production Affects YouSkanska USA
Energy is the lifeblood of everything we do. From business to transportation to our social life, we all depend on energy supplies to power our world. We are at a crossroads in the U.S. as new energy resources and an increased emphasis on efficiency is shifting the balance of power in America’s favor. In light of these developments, Skanska examined the trends in U.S. energy production and consumption, as well as the benefits we may incur from increased domestic energy production. The country is on track to become the world’s largest oil producer in less than a decade and the U.S. is currently the world’s largest producer of natural gas. The world is taking notice. What do all these energy developments mean for you? A cleaner environment, higher GDP and industrial and job growth are just a few benefits of our increased domestic energy production.
As more businesses take action on climate change, new research could help accelerate the trend by showing why it’s in U.S. companies’ economic best interests. Find out more at http://www.wri.org/blog/2014/10/new-climate-economy-shifting-corporate-america-low-carbon-path

Basic introduction to solar PV System Presentation.
The need for renewable energy resources has never been bigger than today and so is a lot of research going to match this high energy demand. Solar PV Array technology is one such technique which can actually make the effective use of solar energy available to us.
Solar power technologies have been around for years but didn't achieve a high enough penetration rate in the mass markets for economies of scale, to be affordable.
Would that change in the next few years?

Which Costs Less? A Surprising Comparison of Utility-Scale, Community, and Ro...John Farrell
Electric utilities often misrepresent the cost of solar energy to serve their own profit interests. The truth? Costs are comparable for utility-scale, rooftop, and community solar––and local solar offers benefits aside from clean electricity, from reducing energy burdens for electric customers to providing resilience in the face of natural disaster. State legislatures should create policies to capture the benefits of all sizes and ownership methods of building more solar energy, but should especially work to undo years of utility misdirection by promoting local solar.

Solar power – clean, reliable, and increasingly affordable – is experiencing remarkable growth and popularity across the globe. Various factors such as technological advancements, reduction in power generation costs, development in installation methodologies are attracting investors into the solar energy market.
The development of solar capacities would be split between utility scale and rooftop installations. From 2015 to 2019, the four geographies of US, EU, India and China will add nearly 105 GW of rooftop solar capacity, as compared to 120 GW in utility scale. Also, the ramp up of solar & wind capacities will represent a combined investment opportunity.
Hybrid renewable energy systems are becoming popular in power generation applications due to advances in renewable energy technologies and subsequent rise in prices of petroleum products. For example, global wind technology majors like Gamesa and Suzlon are entering solar market in emerging geographies like India with EPC services, levering experience in building large scale plants. Hybrid renewable energy systems leverage synergies between the two renewable sources to benefit the producer and consumer alike.
This report gives an overview of how solar power is emerging as a popular alternate to other sources in the field of renewable energy. Various aspects of hybrid renewable energy systems are specifically reviewed in this report. Future trends as well as opportunities for hybrid renewable energy systems are also presented in the report. The information in this report is of general interest to understand the strengths and weaknesses and hence to have a better grasp of the benefits available from hybrid renewable energy systems.

Navigating High-Interest Rates in the US - The Bright Future of Solar Power.pptxSaraKurian3
Did you know that the sun provides more energy to the earth in one hour than we use in an entire year from coal, natural gas, and oil combined? This staggering fact underscores the immense potential of solar power as a sustainable energy source.
In the current economic climate of the United States, high-interest rates pose significant challenges for businesses and consumers alike. However, amidst these financial hurdles, one sector continues to shine brightly - solar power.
Solar Energy Solutions are not only environmentally friendly but also increasingly cost-effective. As we navigate through the complexities of high-interest rates, the future of solar power in the U.S. looks promising. This blog will explore how solar power stands as a beacon of hope in the face of economic adversity.
Solar's robust growth in the past years has been the result of a very favorable combination of new, innovative business models, affordability for consumers, rapidly decreasing manufacturing costs, and most importantly, a strong commitment from the Obama Administration and other policymakers in Washington.
Two general concepts have been proposed for delivering
solar power to Earth from space. In one, Peter Glaser of
Arthur D. Little, Inc. (Cambridge, MA), proposed in 1968
that a huge satellite in geosynchronous orbit around Earth
could dependably gather solar power in space. In the sec-
ond concept, discussed here, solar power would be col-
lected on the moon. In both ideas, many different beams
of 12-cm wavelength microwaves would deliver power to receivers at sites located worldwide. Each receiver would
supply commercial power to a given region. Such a receiv-
er, called a rectenna, would consist of a large field of small
rectifying antennas. A beam with a maximum intensity of
less than 20% of noontime sunlight would deliver about
200 W to its local electric grid for every square meter of
rectenna area. Unlike sunlight, microwaves pass through
rain, clouds, dust, and smoke. In both scenarios, power
can be supplied to the rectenna at night.
Nanotechnology has to potential to revolutionize the US energy system. From fuel cells, to cell phone batteries, to space equipment, and everywhere in between nanotechnology can be utilized.
But, there is still a lot of research to be done and many hurdles to cross to make this technology commercially practicable.
The area of solar building in China increases dramatically after the reform and opening-up policy and economic development..It is helpful for the national economy which maintains a sustainable, rapid and healthy development if we seize the opportunity to promoting building energy efficiency. The solar building has a good prospects and brilliant future which can help our country to realize the national development of the second step and the third step in the strategic target, and guide our country construction and architectural technology along with the world’s trend.
In 1979 China passed environmental protection law for trial implementation.The 1982 contitution includes important environmental provisions.Based on the provisions many laws were enacted .Water pollution prevention and control law 1984,Air pollution and control law 1987are some of the remarkable laws .
The U.S. solar market has burst out of the gate in 2014 by recording the second-largest quarter in history. This growth was led by the strong performance of the utility segment- both in the PV and CSP markets. Federal ,state and local government is offering an unflinching support to solar industry by providing a Investment tax credit of 30%.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
