Bowdoinham signed up with Nexamp Community Solar Farms to power municipal buildings. Bowdoinham officials will sign a deal with Nexamp Community Solar Farm to provide municipal buildings with clean energy at reduced cost, according to a press release. The Nexamp community solar farm, located in Madison, is equipped with 10,000 solar panels that generate enough […]
The Biden administration announced yesterday an investigation into imposing import taxes on solar panels and critical equipment, angering supporters who said it could stifle industry growth enough to thwart climate targets. The investigation, which could take a year to complete, was triggered by a February petition by US solar producer Auxin Solar Inc., which asked […]
Solar energy generation keeps on becoming cheaper and more efficient, but some basic limitations will always apply: solar panels can only generate power during the daytime, and much of the sunlight is absorbed by the atmosphere as it shines downward. So ESA is working on the concept of collecting solar power up […]

For many people like me participating in a new community solar program in Rochester, the early months of the initiative seemed too good to be true: dirt-cheap RG&E bills, or sometimes no bills at all. The bills for the two-bedroom cape where my wife and I live in […]
Semiconducting perovskites that exhibit superfluorescence at room temperature do so due to built-in thermal “shock absorbers” which protect dipoles within the material from thermal interference. A new study from North Carolina State University explores the mechanism involved in this macroscopic quantum phase transition and explains how and why materials like perovskites exhibit macroscopic quantum […]
