EIA Electric Power Monthly June 2021 for April 2021. I've decided to group and post the data in a separate thread. Natural Gas: down on 2020, up on 2019. Coal:: up on 2020, down on 2019. Nuclear: down on 2020, down on 2019 Wind: up on 2020, up on 2019 Solar:up on 2020,up on 2019 There's still...

If there's interest, I can publish these stats every month. I siphon up the live 15 minute stats from AEMO and store them in a database, along with estimates (not mine) of small scale/rooftop solar production based on detailed SRES and weather data, since AEMO does not see the latter but it's...

Does anyone have a Powerwall 2 being fed by Skystream 3.7 (or any other) wind turbines as part of their own residential renewable energy system? We have a combination of wind turbines and solar PV with microinverters as part of our system.

https://www.evergy.com/about-evergy/newsroom/2020/january/evergy-announces-plan-to-reduce-carbon-emissions Evergy, the electricity provider for eastern Kansas and western Missouri, announced their plan to reduce carbon emissions by 80 percent over the coming decades. My understanding is that...

We have a thread for solar. How's about wind? EIA Electricity Power Monthly. Wind had a notable month. For the first time, rolling 12 month total wind generation was higher than hydroelectricity over the same period, with wind power now being the 4th largest source of US generation...

Looks like there's a race to deploy offshore wind in the USA before incentives expire: Energy firms bet on offshore wind farms in America Selected quotes: More than 4,000 wind turbines already twirl off the coasts of Europe. In America, just five short turbines poke out of the waves near...

World’s First Offshore Wind Repowering Completed in Sweden This works out to 3.4 US cents a kWh over the next 15 year lifetime, excluding financing and O&M. It is great news that the infrastructure can be re-used. :: two thumbs up :: The truly interesting snippet in the article was that the...

Hi All, I live in a park that disallows installing solar panels. They have a small baseline allowance in electricity that makes charging unpractical. Im trying to see if anyone has experience with small wind turbine non grid tied installations, and if its worth it. Wonder if they have...

My wife and I will both have electric cars when my Tesla gets here in a few weeks. When that happens, there's no more excuse for us to switch over to wind-powered electricity (not that there's anything stopping us now). As you no doubt know our state is one of the largest producers of wind...

Texas Sets New All-Time Wind Energy Record - Scientific American Blog Network Nice!

Kauai now generates 80% or more of its energy from solar panels, and they also use batteries to compensate for the drops in solar energy output at nighttime and when clouds are over the large arrays. This is exciting and a great opportunity for Tesla, especially once the new Tesla Gigafactory...
