The Biden administration says solar power could make up 40 percent of U.S. energy generation by 2035 if the nation makes “historic investments” to pump up renewable energy projects. A memo published by the Department of Energy (DOE) Tuesday details how President Biden’s proposed investments in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal and his Build Back Better …
In recent years, South Africa has taken tentative steps toward diversifying its energy portfolio to provide alternative power that is sustainable and affordable. This strategy, for an inclusive energy mix, needs additional capacity from renewables to be a top priority; however, utility-scale projects call for a substantial land footprint. The Northern Cape Province in …
