Increased investments in renewable energy are creating welcome yet challenging opportunities in the construction industry. These capital-intensive projects must be managed more efficiently through every phase of the asset’s life cycle. As a result, renewable energy project owners are exploring how advanced project controls systems can support owners’ energy sustainability efforts, without negatively impacting project timelines and budgets.

The clean energy labor market was tight even before the Inflation Reduction Act. Here's how industry leaders are fighting to retain and recruit top talent.

For all the IRA promises to do to fuel clean energy deployment, the law doesn't cure the industry's persistent NIMBY problem.

Maintain high performance and productivity while producing more efficient and affordable energy.

Supporters say the concept has the potential to boost farmers’ revenue, but it’s also a risky proposition, which is why they say the state should fund a pilot project to gather more information about what works and what doesn’t when pairing solar and agriculture in Maine’s climate.

The facility will manufacture Cummins' HyLYZER-500 and HyLYZER-5000 proton exchange membrane electrolyzers.

The company said it plans to increase capital investment for its seven regulated utilities to $145 billion over the next decade. $40 billion of that total would be for investments in zero-carbon generation sources, such as renewables, battery storage resources and hydrogen-powered natural gas technologies. It would also include extending the life of its nuclear fleet.

Broader network upgrade expenses are a primary driver for the higher costs, which hit renewables and storage harder than natural gas.

NREL’s approach makes it possible to assemble devices into a microgrid relying on just renewable energy and amateur electrical experience—perfect for recoveries in a pinch.
