COVID-19 Erases Five Years of Solar Job Growth
WASHINGTON, D.C. – New analysis shows that the U.S. solar industry will employ 114,000 fewer workers by June 2020, compared with previous forecasts that projected the industry would employ 302,000 Americans over the same time period. With an expected workforce of 188,000 people, this job loss will take the industry back to 2014 levels as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. Last week the U.S. government reported another 3 million unemployment claims. The solar industry is now losing jobs at a fas...

(Credit: RCAM Technologies) WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Wind off the coasts of the U.S. could be used to generate more than double the combined electricity capacity of all the nation’s electric power plants, reports have suggested. But building wind turbines offshore is expensive, requiring parts to be shipped at least 30 miles away from a coast. Purdue Univer...
4Subsea Installs IoT Sensors on Floating Turbine Zefyros to Prove Cost Reduction Potential with Digital Twin
4Subsea has installed advanced, retrofit sensors on floating turbine Zefyros (previously Hywind Demo) to prove cost reduction potential with a Digital Twin. A few hours after mobilisation on April 20th, the autonomous sensors started streaming motion and load data to 4insight.io from Unitech’s wind turbine off the west coast of Norway. The project aims to prove significant cost reduction potential in offshore wind by using a Digital Twin of the substructure to measure actual loads and fatigue on...
Analysis: Wind energy expansion would have $27 billion economic impact
Expansion of wind power in the top 10 wind-producing states would create billions of dollars of economic impact. States that add wind power would see about $24 billion in activity, while other states would see $3 billion in spillover economic activity. (Photos provided by Shweta Singh) WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Wind, which generates less greenhouse gas emission than burning fossil fuels, is making up an increasing share of the energy production portfolio in the United States. But wind is no...
Global Focus on Renewable Energy Creates Tremendous Growth Prospects for Wind Turbine Materials
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – April 8, 2020 –The increasing demand for energy worldwide and traditional energy independence due to volatile oil prices is encouraging governments throughout the world to harness the potential of renewable energy, driving the global market for wind turbine materials. Expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9%, the wind turbine materials market is likely to almost double, reaching $19.57 billion by 2026 from $10.76 billion in 2019. “With the increasing pop...
