The electric grids of several major cities are stressed by an increase in air conditioning use, as people try to stay cool. Citizens of the City of Roses have turned to Portland contractorsto alleviate their heat-related …

The sun’s rays generates massive amounts of energy which are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. Whenever the sun’s light reach the earth’s surface the intensity of the heat directly from the sun’s rays is not as hot because some of the heat happens to be rerouted before it reaches the earth’s atmosphere. When the direct sun light is hot …

The sun generates enormous amounts of heat that are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. When the sun’s rays reach the earth’s surface the intensity of the heat directly from the sun’s rays is not as hot basically because some of the heat happens to be rerouted right before it actually reaches the earth’s atmosphere.

The sun’s light gives off immense amounts of heat which are transmitted down to the earth’s surface. The moment the sun’s light reach the earth’s surface the concentration of the heat directly coming from the sun’s rays isn’t as hot since some of the heat is really rerouted right before it actually gets to the earth’s atmosphere. When the sunlight …

With a series of intensive solar projects under way, as much as 7.5GW in PV capacity could be added to the local power grid by 2015, more than half the state’s announced goal of achieving 12GW from all renewable sources—and with five more years to spare before the targeted 2020 deadline. What this shows is the likelihood of PV accounting in the future for a great portion of clean energy in California, Sheppard noted.
