"The EIA expects solar generation to increase by 24% (10.8 TWh) this summer versus last summer, which beats the expectations for every other energy source."

Texas cements itself as a national leader in solar capacity, but opportunistic politicians funded by the fossil fuels industry are trying to change that. Read more:

"The research by @ClimatePower shows that companies have announced more than 100,000 clean energy jobs in the United States since the passage of the IRA."
Climate action and job creation go hand-in-hand.🤝🌎

Floating solar is just barely scratching the surface when it comes to its long-term potential. Currently, only 2% of new solar installations are on water, yet the United States has more than 24,000 human-made bodies of water.

The solar industry has arguably never been in a better position in the wake of the passage of the Inflation #IRA. A rise in NIMBY-inspired land-use policies, however, is threatening to disrupt some of that optimism.

The #IRA is turning into a boon for domestic #solar manufacturing, as leading solar companies like @FirstSolar, SPI Energy, PV Hardware, and others roll out significant investment plans.

This /very nearly/ didn't happen. Four weeks ago this bill was dead. The only reason it stayed alive was tons of hard work, dedication, coalition building, and VERY GOOD IDEAS from a huge number of people in the climate movement.

President Biden just signed the LARGEST climate bill in U.S. history. 🌎
Pass it on!
An historic day for sure!
Scorching global temps this summer have put a strain on solar energy infrastructure across the world. Learn more below:

What better way to lead on climate change then to turn these symbols of excess waste and overconsumption into hotbeds of renewable energy activity?

"The crops below the solar panels that were tested were found to be 100%-300% more productive, depending on the species, while solar panel shade cover reduced irrigation-water use by 15% and overall water consumption by over 150%."

"While engineering limitations make a vehicle fully powered by the sun a fantasy prospect for consumers, solar cell technology is being adopted at a much-limited scale in many modern-day electrified vehicles."

Happy #NationalBeerDay indeed. 🍻
Well if it's #NationalBeerDay, then it's necessary to tie that into #CleanEnergy IMO
How about the best of #solar energy & the #beer industry colliding via @solartribune?

"It is estimated that 10 billion gallons of water is used per year to clean the world’s #solarpanels...Clearly, the massive water consumption footprint associated with cleaning of solar panels does not represent a long-term solution for the industry."

"The best way to diminish the geo-political influence of petro-aggressor states like Russia is to commit to an energy policy that puts renewables at the center of a plan for energy sovereignty." 🇺🇦

"Putting rooftop solar on the facilities of companies with large footprints is both a logical and untapped opportunity to greatly advance global and national climate goals."

"According to a 2020 study conducted last year by the University of Colorado, 20% of public airports in the United States have adopted #solarpanels in some capacity over the last decade."
