Alternative Energy - Articles, Stories & Interviews

Energy Affordability Was on the Ballot. Clean Energy as the Solution Won.

Soon after the polls closed and the results came rolling in, it became clear that supporting solar and storage to lower costs is more than just good policy. It’s good politics, too.

Renewable Grid Integration

Ensuring grid stability with high levels of IBRs is a growing technical challenge. Traditional grids derived strength and inertia from big spinning generators, but when those are replaced by solar inverters and wind turbines, the system behaves differently.

Recent Progress in the US EV Industry: Greener and Safer EV Battery Technologies

This paper explores a range of approaches aimed at enhancing battery performance while reducing production costs and mitigating existing limitations. These approaches span from theoretical frameworks to practical advancements in anode and cathode materials.

8 Things Battery Storage Brings to Solar Systems

In this article, we'll explore eight key differences between grid-tied solar systems and home energy systems with battery storage, highlighting how solar plus battery storage offer distinct advantages.

Blackmon Power Fast-Tracks Asset Monitoring with Flir i65 and Condoit App

By combining Flir’s new i65 thermal imaging camera with the Condoit electrical data platform, the company has overhauled its asset monitoring and reporting process – cutting turnaround times from 8-12 hours to less than five minutes.

Can Nuclear Infrastructure Help Meet the Energy Demand of AI

Nuclear power presents a reliable solution to meet this increased demand, by offering stable baseload power to ensure a consistent supply of electricity that can help stabilize the electrical grid and that AI infrastructure can depend on.

Why edge AI alleviates the need for “flexible” data centers

The future of sustainable AI isn’t about managing massive centralized loads more cleverly—it’s about distributing intelligence to where it’s actually needed, with the energy efficiency that comes naturally from edge computing.
