Maintenance and Monitoring
Maintenance, and Monitoring Solar Electric Panel (Photovoltaic or PV) Maintenance and Monitoring is an important part of any solar program. Dirty panels produce less electricity than clean panels. The challenge for solar electric panel owners is that panel performance can become shaded with dirt and therefore give you less production…
Environmental Aspects & The Hydrogen Economy
Environmental Aspects Renewable energy sources have a completely different set of environmental costs and benefits to fossil fuel or nuclear generating capacity. On the positive side they emit n99o carbon dioxide or other air pollutants (beyond some decay products from new hydro-electric reservoirs), but because they are harnessing relatively low-intensity…

Systems Integration Costs
Intermittent Renewable Power Generation Power generation technologies generally compete with each other both in regulated and deregulated markets to supply electricity through a ‘merit order’ based on availability and marginal cost of production for any given period. Fossil fuel, nuclear, biomass and hydro power generators can all to varying degrees…

Net Metering & Feed-In-Tariff (FIT)
The feed-in tariff (FiT) and net metering are both methods by which a utility company compensates a homeowner or other producer for the energy fed back into the grid. Simply put, net metering requires one meter, FiT requires two. Net metering simply “runs your electric utility meter backwards” when a…
