2026-06-07 In 2025, the world added an incredible 605 gigawatts of new solar capacity
“”In 2025, the world added an incredible 605 gigawatts of new solar capacity, according to the International Energy Agency. To put that into perspective, it was the largest single year addition of any energy technology in history. This record breaking growth was fueled by falling solar panel costs, expanding manufacturing, and massive deployment across countries

2024-11-14 China World’s Largest Open Sea Offsore Solar Farm
China’s 1 GW first and largest offshore solar farm. Over 3000 acres sits 5 miles off the coast. China has plenty of empty land in the western part but most of the demand is in the eastern part, so they have had to build hugely massive and expensive transmission lines to get the power to

2024-10-05 Floatovoltaics – Floating Solar Panels
Floating solar panels are called Floatovoltaics. Short video. Another floating solar farm in Utah, now complete. It’s a 587.5 kW array. Utah’s first floating solar farm is complete
2024-08-12 Cannons Disrupt The Formation Of Hail Stones
This cannon is used in a vinyard and the shockwave is so powerful it disrupts the formation of hail stones. I’m seeing a lot of badmouthing solar panels that got broken by hail. Well, here is a possible preventive solution. https://www.facebook.com/reel/344539995276131?mibextid=9drbnH
2023-11-07 Solar Floatovoltaics In The Ocean
Matt Undecided talks about solar PV floating on the ocean – it’s already being developed and scaled up in some countries. The big benefits are the solar panels stay cooler so they gain 4 to 7% in efficiency. And the panels reduce evaporation, saving water. And no land is needed or used. YouTube video.
