A recent study by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems, commissioned by Agora Energiewende, found that solar is set to become the most affordable power source across the planet by 2025. Conducted by a think tank of 18 solar experts, the report projected that the cost of solar power production will have fallen to 4 and 6 cents per kilowatt hour in central ...

The Environmental Protection Agency will be revealing the final update of the Clean Power Plan later this summer. As part of the Clean Air Act, this rule limits the amount of carbon dioxide that power plants can generate on a state-by-state basis, while providing standards for energy efficiency and CO2 measurement. However, according to Greentech Media, the actual ...

The peak solar generation record was shattered on Tuesday, February 10, 2015, when state utility-scale solar power plants fed 4,933 megawatts into the power grid. This number more than doubled the previous record set by the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station at its peak, according to the California Independent System Operator. However, the record was short-lived, ...

Renewable Energy: By now more than likely you have heard that installing Solar Panels on the roof of your home can reduce what you pay for your energy.

1/3 of Solar Jobs in US are in California

Micro Inverters are better than the weakest link!

Rooftop solar panels are an affordable alternative to rising rates from your utility provider.

SolarMax Technology is proud to be part of the solution for a better tomorrow. It is no secret that the choices we make today have a direct effect on the future of our species and planet, so it is imperative we manage and replace resources for the future. I'd like to share a story told by David Hochschild Commissioner of the California Energy Commission at the Solar ...

Did you know that during the recent summer heatwaves, the state of California generated a record-breaking 1000+ megawatts of solar power? That’s the same amount of power produced by not one, but two large gas-fired power plants—except with solar, that energy is clean, green, and produced from an abundant renewable resource.

As of this fall, Riverside celebrated a major milestone in its goal to become a green leader: the city is now producing 5,000,000 watts of solar energy per day, or enough to power 3000 homes! Having hit this threshold mark of 5 megawatts, Riverside takes its place next to San Diego, San Francisco and Los Angeles as a key producer of solar power in CA.
