This means we’ve been trying to model a situation where the grid looks totally different today.” ” This rapid radical reduction in the price of PV solar is a story about Chinese industrial might

This article is about research on putting solar panels over the aqueducts that bring water to So. California. https://www.popsci.com/story/environment/solar-panels-cover-water-canals/ Good idea. There is one issue: getting the power from the solar panels to where it can be used. If there are transmission lines next to the canal then that would be the place to start.
This is a .PDF document from the CPUC about LADWP’s future plans for converting the IPP coal fired power plant in Utah to a solar and wind generating facility, a green hydrogen generation and underground storage site, replacing the coal plant with CCGTs – combined cycle gas turbine generators that will run on hydrogen, and

This very informative TED article explains what is and will be occuring in the near future with green hydrogen. It talks about how green hydrogen will be used for airplanes and heavy transportation. It gives projects that will be generating green hydrogen. Using green hydrogen as a replacement for diesel vehicles. At the end it

Singer seems to be a shill for the fossil fuel industry. She uses the term, Industrial Wind Turbine or IWT to attempt to associate wind turbines with industry, even though the wind turbines have nothing to do with industry – they’re located in the country or offshore. She goes on to say “… Then legislators

From FB group Orange Talk https://www.anaheim.net/5888/Anaheim-Solar-One-Project This is good to hear. The City of Anaheim is their own electric utility. The more solar power we have the less fossil fuels we’ll use and the less climate change there will be. But it would be better if the same amount of solar panels were installed on

From comment on Matt Ferrel’s Undecided The technologies for green energy and hydrogen are all there. The biggest issue is to get governments to make enough incentives to get companies to switch over to renewables plus storage. Tony Seba (in his YouTube videos) has stated that the country needs to build wind and solar plus
