    Extractions: Up to: Main Sustainability Page Up To: Energy Page This page will have my own opinions about solar energy, but I will gladly include references to other opinions. The Wikipedia page on solar energy looks up-to-date as of 2007 and will presumably be kept up-to-date. The applications of solar energy include powering earth satellites (successful), powering emergency telephones along highways (successful), heating water with rooftop installations (successful but at best marginally cost-effective where energy is cheap), electric power where grid energy is not available (apparently not cost-effective at present compared to diesel generators) and central station electric generation (not presently economical). This paragraph was written in 2003, but I think it is still accurate. It's now 2007 June, and solar central stations are still not economical. Central station generation is the application that needs to be compared to present generation methods - burning coal, oil or natural gas or nuclear energy. We have a separate page on nuclear energy Like nuclear energy, solar energy does not put CO2 into the atmosphere, and so needs to be considered if global warming has to be avoided. It has lots of supporters, especially among those who oppose nuclear energy.

Today, we continue the investigation of solar-related technologies with a photovoltaic demonstration at our facility in Ames and BECON, and two current grants that research methods for increasing solar panel energy efficiency and stability. More information Of all the solar energy technologies, photovoltaics (PV) show the greatest promise for worldwide acceptance and application. Their universal appeal lies in the fact that they generate electricity from the sun. Working photovoltaics have no moving parts, are relatively simple in design, need very little maintenance and are environmentally benign. They simply and silently produce electricity whenever they are exposed to light. The following information from the FSEC is a great primer for solar electricity.

    Extractions: NEW YORK - The omission of renewed investment tax credits for solar energy in the wide-sweeping energy bill signed by President Bush late last month has put the future health of the U.S. solar power industry in question. The bill includes more stringent mandates for fuel economy and energy efficiency, but it doesn't extend the investment tax credit for companies specializing in solar power systems. That credit, which amounts to 30 percent of the value of qualified residential or commercial solar equipment, is set to revert to 10 percent at the end of 2008 unless it is extended. Solar companies also lost out because the bill didn't include a mandate that would have required utilities to produce up to 15 percent of their electricity from renewable energy sources. More than half the states, most of them in the Northeast and on the West Coast, already have similar requirements. A federal mandate could have bolstered the solar industry by encouraging utilities in regions such as the Southeast, where most states don't have renewable energy standards, to buy more energy generated by the sun.
