Community-owned wind farms could reduce your energy bills by 23 per cent - here’s how you can get involved.
Latin America's largest solar park -- with 2.3 million solar panels, covering the equivalent of 2,200 football fields -- sits in the middle of the Mexican desert, in the arid northern state of Coahuila.
Chinese solar power company Panda Green Energy recently opened the most adorable green energy solar power plant in the shape of China's national animal, the beloved panda bear. The unique shape of the huge solar farm can only be seen from the air, as shown in drone footage from Datong filmed on Tuesday. Panda Green Energy used a combination of darker monocrystalline silicon and white thin film solar cells to create the unique shape, in what is a world's first for solar farms.
China switched on the world's largest floating solar farm, located a small distance from the city of Huainan in the eastern Anhui province, in May. Local authorities decided to implement the project after a coal mining operation flooded, leading to questions about how best to use the site. The floating solar farm itself was built by Chinese manufacturer Sungrow Power Supply, at its full capacity of 40 megawatts, the plant can provide electricity for more than 15,000 homes.
The installation of solar energy farms is a central plank of Spain's strategy for meeting CO2 emission targets. But they're drawing opposition from rural groups opposed to the transformation of traditional landscapes.
