New Mexico State University’s International Relations Institute will receive $200,000 in federal funds to support the development of innovative energy sources for New Mexico farmers and ranchers. Most of the cash, $125,000 to be exact, will be apportioned to projects under the university’s Renewable Energy, Water and Arid Lands Task Force. Projects include a new solar system for a biodiesel project fueled by algae, a new solar power system for water…

A new legislation was recently introduced in the Senate to provide an investment tax credit (ITC) to energy storage facilities. Senate Bill 3617 – the Storage Technology of Renewable and Green Energy Act of 2010 (the “STORAGE 2010 Act”) – would provide up to $1.5 billion in tax credits to storage projects which are connected to the U.S. electric grid. This initiative is intended to support intermittent energy sources, including wind and solar power, while moderating energy….

Pflugerville – a small city in central Texas – may soon be 100 percent solar powered. Officials are currently in negotiations with RRE Austin Solar and Travis County to develop a solar power plant that could generate enough renewable energy for every home in the city. The plant will potentially be located about fifteen miles away on a 600 acre farm, and will house roughly $750,000 worth of solar panels. Austin Solar, the company constructing…

A brand new, cutting-edge hybrid solar collector, which incorporates both photovoltaic (PV) power generation with solar water heating, is taking the renewable energy industry by storm. The concept originated from the *Task 35, a task group from International Energy Agency that aims to spur the development and market introduction of high quality and commercially-competitive PV-T hybrid systems. The focus in a PV-T hybrid…
