When it comes to offshore wind farms, many of us think of Europe, where they’ve been a staple of the renewable energy landscape for years. But the reality is that the United States is now playing catch-up, and with surprising speed. Despite being a latecomer to the game, the US is rapidly becoming a leader…
In a small village in rural Kenya, a group of farmers gathered around a newly installed solar-powered water pump. The pump, powered by a cutting-edge solar panel system, was a game-changer for the community. No longer would they have to rely on manual labor or diesel-powered pumps that were expensive and unreliable. The new system…
