Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association, Inc.’s Post

RETC (Renewable Energy Test Center), a member of the VDE Group, conducted a subject matter expert interview with Jon Previtali—VDE Americas' product manager for natural catastrophe advisory services—as part of its research for the 2024 PV Module Index Report. Here, we share this in-depth PVMI interview, exploring spontaneous glass breakage, catastrophic hail losses, and a proposed new hail resiliency test standard. https://lnkd.in/dUterpBv

At Renewa, we are helping to accelerate the transition to renewable energy by providing capital solutions to landowners and developers so they can reap the greatest value from their land. And we get it - it is, without a doubt, a very big decision. But for many, it is the right decision, as it provides greater control of assets and most importantly, a more stable future for landowners and future generations. Which, at Renewa, is something we value greatly. 📸: Stephen Lee, Co-CEO of Renewa, with his two daughters on a recent trip to Pierce Ranch outside of Houston, TX.

Meltek Inc. understands that solving our energy needs requires an all in effort of solar, wind, storage, transmission, along with behavior modification and modern control systems, as noted in this post by Entergy.

Wind Harvest has built a series a turbines over the years - each better than the last. These prototypes have moved us through the Technology Readiness Levels to TRL 7 (out of 9). We can't wait to get to TRL 8! Learn more about TRLs and Wind Harvest's progress through them in our full explainer video: https://lnkd.in/gYK_v6v2

Earlier this month, wind became the largest contributor to UK power generation. Today, the UK's largest community-owned energy project started feeding power into the grid. In a month, all 8 turbines will be operational, and together they'll displace almost 32,000 tonnes of CO2 per year, for the next 20-25 years. Global warming was predicted by science in the 19th century. Over a century later, we've reshaped the world to increasingly burn, starve, flood, and displace us, and all other life on earth. Onshore wind is the cheapest form of energy. Oxford University calculated that switching to renewables could save the world USD 12 trillion by 2050. The number of new wind farm projects in England last year? Zero. It's time to fall in love with the solutions we already have. There's no time to waste.

Have you heard of a bubble curtain? Installed around wind turbines, they are an important way to ensure minimal disturbance to marine life. 🐳🐟 Learn more about the ThayerMahan, Inc. bubble curtains used in our Vineyard Wind project: https://hubs.ly/Q02wn9Sx0

Another major milestone for offshore wind industry in the U.S. with Avangrid Vineyard Wind 1 project that will soon be the first and largest in the nation.

Did you know that our sister project, Wimby - Wind In My BackYard, is focusing on four pilot sites: Italy, Austria, Norway, and Portugal? 😃 They are gathering real-world data on public attitudes towards wind power across these four pilot sites. Each site's unique characteristics ensure comprehensive insights, guiding more informed and inclusive deployment strategies. These findings will help shape regional policies and European-scale applications, promoting effective wind power integration continent-wide. #WIMBY #WindPower #WENDYprojectEU
