It’s election year in Europe, and with it come big promises - including help for voters in greening their homes. The Labour Party’s UK victory heralds a new era for climate action with a “rooftop revolution” aiming to triple solar power in the country by 2030. As well as approving three huge solar farms in east England that had previously been blocked by the Conservatives, the new government is offering grants and low interest loans to support solar panel installation on millions of homes. But, with green energy subsidies historically hard to understand or access for many, do they really make ...

The Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, has just installed 300 solar panels on its roof - part of its commitment to be climate neutral by 2030. The 80 kW photovoltaic installation will save around 5 per cent of the museum's electricity consumption and supply enough power to light its exhibition halls. But the modernist building by renowned architect Frank Gehry posed unique challenges for integrating the panels onto the roofs. To preserve the architectural integrity of the iconic structure, the colour and design of the panels had to be carefully selected and approved. With the need for green e...

Sun-worshippers have another reason to celebrate today, as solar power is set to peak at a fifth of the world’s electricity for an hour. Analysing midday highs on 21 June, clean energy think tank Ember says the renewable will make up 20 per cent of the global power mix, up from 16 per cent last year. Global solar generation typically performs best in June due to longer summer days in the northern hemisphere, where around 89 per cent of the world’s solar panels are installed. “At 20 per cent share, solar is now a serious global electricity source,” says Kostantsa Rangelova, electricity analyst ...

Volkswagen is to offer a solar panel deal alongside chargers for its electric cars. The German car maker says that will cut drivers' costs by some 40% because they will be able to use excess solar energy to recharge their electric vehicles. That figure is based on an estimate from UK energy efficiency organisation the Energy Saving Trust which says the average household can expect to pay around £7,000 (€8,200) for a 3.5 kWh solar panel system at peak times. The VW collaboration is with Norwegian solar panel installer Otovo. The company was started in 2016 and has more than 20,000 photovoltaic ...

Ukraine could install five times more solar energy capacity than the government’s current plan, according to a new study. Greenpeace campaigners are calling for the embattled country to adopt a ‘Solar Energy Marshall Plan’ - in reference to the US-funded programme that helped Europe rebuild after the Second World War. The study they commissioned from economic consultancy firm Berlin Economics is released today ahead of the Ukraine Recovery Conference taking place in Berlin next week. “Addressing the energy crisis must be at the heart of the Ukraine Recovery Conference,” says Andree Böhling, en...

A city in Spain is starting to use its cemeteries to generate renewable power. Valencia, on the east coast, aims to install thousands of solar panels in graveyards around the city. The project has been dubbed RIP - standing for Requiem in Power - and was launched this month with the first photovoltaic panels installed. The city intends the ambitious initiative to become the largest urban solar farm in Spain. Valencia to create the largest urban solar farm in SpainThe city of Valencia plans to install 6,658 solar panels in local cemeteries. Some 810 have already been laid down in Grau, Campanar...
