  3. We smashed our August solar record, beating our previous high by 58.4k kWh! ☀️ Even with the heat waves and AC running, production stayed strong (though it did mean less spare energy for export). 🌡️⚡

  5. An analysis carried out for the Guardian has found that in areas with the fewest sunny days, solar panels could bring annual savings of about £450 a year on the average household electricity bill. In areas with the brightest skies, this figure could climb to more than £600.

    Findings provided by the UK solar firm Recharge Renewable.

  6. Meta To Expand Energy Supply With 100MW of U.S. Solar

    Meta has entered into a $100 million agreement with solar developer Silicon Ranch to build a 100-megawatt solar farm in South Carolina. The project will power Meta’s upcoming $800 million AI data center in the state, with both facilities slated to begin operations in 2027. According to the companies, most of the equipment for the solar installation will be manufactured in the United States. This marks the 18th collaboration between Meta and Silicon Ranch, a partnership that has already […]

  7. It’s Such a Blessing: The Farmers Embracing Solar Arrays

    Dowell / Getty Images The solar farm where Jess Gray’s sheep were giving birth was only four miles away but after a February ice storm this year, it took her more than an hour to get there in her pickup truck. Fallen trees and power lines littered the roads. Ice coated the ground and encrusted the wires of the chain link fence enclosing her flock. Gray was anxious to see if any had survived. “I got to the farm and my sheep were lambing in the middle of it,” she recalled. “Lambs […]

    In this session, we will learn about any of the following:#PlantIdentification, #biodiversity in the local community, plant science, local green infrastructure initiatives, and more! Gardening tasks can include #invasiveSpecies removal, #mulching planting, #watering, seed sorting, aerating the soil, and other maintenance.

    No experience required! All tools provided, but you may bring your own.
    We will be meeting every Monday from 5:00 pm-6:30 pm!"

  9. Video - The Ship Bringing Aid to Power Cuba’s Hospital

    [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    Open Arms @openarmsong set sail across the Atlantic carrying seven tons of #SolarPanels, batteries and #medical supplies bound for a children’s #hospital thousands of miles away.

    This hospital, which treats children with cancer, neurological conditions and severe burns, is facing its biggest challenge: a lack of electricity.

  10. Cut Off From Fuel, Cuba Is Still Surviving

    ...After a week on the ground, we found that while Cubans are clearly suffering, they are also doing what perhaps they do best: adapting.

    They are swapping their gas-guzzling 1950s American cars for electric motorcycles and rickshaws from China; importing hefty lithium batteries to keep televisions and fans running through blackouts; jury-rigging generators to run on more accessible natural gas; and installing #SolarPanels on rooftops and even vehicles.

    Together, the workarounds amount to a new Cuban energy grid — this one more in the hands of the Cuban people, propping up society with the electricity off and fuel lines dry.

  12. #Cuba - #Solarpowered #tricycles help #Cubans navigate #FuelShortages and blockades

    By ANDREA RODRÍGUEZ
    Updated 4:38 PM UTC, July 10, 2026

    HAVANA (AP) — "Cuba’s iconic vintage cars have all but disappeared and in their place, small electric tricycles — most of them made in China — have become the primary means of transportation for hundreds of thousands of Cubans grappling with a prolonged fuel crisis.
    These are no ordinary electric tricycles — many Cubans have outfitted them with #SolarPanels, allowing the vehicles to recharge without relying on the island nation’s strained power grid.

    "The three-wheelers are a far cry from the old-timers that only a year ago cruised the streets spewing clouds of black smoke.

    " 'This is how people get around now,' said 40-year-old Liecer de la Cruz, who owns one of these vehicles.

    "The tricycles, with a cost between $2,000 and $4,000, are used to transport goods and serve fixed routes once covered by buses.

    "While their price is out of reach for most Cubans, many have sold their older gasoline-powered cars to buy the tricycles. Others got them from relatives abroad, where they are generally cheaper, and some small-business owners even used their profits to invest in them, expecting to recoup the cost."

  13. @kennergf @clickhere @stancarey @helvick Battery as option, I'd say (for the moment, till battery prices come down). Please write to your local TDs and Minister for Climate, Energy and the Environment Darragh O'Brien asking for this! Contacts here gov.ie/en/department-of-climat and if a journalist, address it to the Press Office! #Climate #ZeroInterestClimateLoan #SolarPanels #HeatPump

    Because of #racist #Republicans in THIS country, a lot of places #OrangeHitler called "$#!+hole countries" are going to end up adopting #SolarPanels & #EVs FAR faster than the rest of the world (and reap the economic benefits.)

    The lawsuit accused the #EnvironmentalProtectionAgency of illegally revoking the money without #Congress's approval.
    The #SolarForAll program was not only intended to help low- and moderate-income #homeowners. It was also meant to expand #communitysolar initiatives, which bring solar energy to people who don’t own their own homes or otherwise can’t install their own #solarpanels.

  21. If #Cities Are Going To Be Packed With #ParkingLots, They Should All Have #Solar Canopies
    More than 5% of developed land in the United States is dedicated to parking lots.
    A study attempted to determine what would happen if #Walmart covered all 3,571 of its Super locations’ parking lots with #solarpanels, the solar power generation would be 11.1GW. That’s about the same as twelve large coal-fired #powerplants, enough electricity to provide power to 8.325 million homes. jalopnik.com/if-cities-are-goi
