The SolarAPP+ platform has helped local governments approve rooftop solar projects more efficiently, saving permitting staff time without sacrificing safety or code compliance.
Share your thoughts on the opportunities to deploy supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) based turbomachinery for concentrating solar power (CSP) plants.
$7 million funding available for social science research on large-scale solar energy siting.
Join the USDA and DOE for their virtual listening sessions where they'll hear stakeholders speak on benefits and challenges of clean energy siting on agricultural lands and in rural communities.
Microgrids are small electric grids that can operate while disconnected from the main grid. Learn how a new tool that networks multiple microgrids with solar-plus-storage together can lead to community resilience.
The Energy Department’s Interconnection Innovation e-Xchange (i2X) program seeks feedback on a draft transmission system interconnection roadmap.
Request for Information: Grid Integration of Solar Energy Systems and Other Inverter-based Resources
Share your thoughts on the technical challenges and opportunities for grid integration of solar energy systems and other inverter-based resources connected to bulk power systems, distribution systems, microgrids, and behind-the-meter systems.
With funding from SETO, the North Carolina Clean Energy Technology Center developed a policy guide for cooperative and municipal utilities in the Southeast to help them make community solar more available to customers.
Funding Notice: Solar-thermal Fuels and Thermal Energy Storage via Concentrated Solar-thermal Energy
The Solar-thermal Fuels and Thermal Energy Storage via Concentrated Solar funding opportunity seeks to reduce costs and advance technology of concentrated solar thermal power for thermal energy storage and other uses, including industrial decarbonization.
Siting solar arrays is a challenge shared by developers, state and local governments, and communities. With the help of Energy Department funding, Nevados developed hardware that opens new sites by enabling solar panel installation on uneven terrain.
