Washington's largest new solar farm ready for operation.
The solar array in Lind is situated on 200 acres, is the result of a partnership between Avista Utilities and Strata Solar. Strata Solar developed, owns, and operates the solar facility in Lind, which is within Avista’s service area. Avista has a power purchase agreement with Strata Solar to provide the energy generated from the solar array to Avista customers.
Making solar energy with Joos Orange for phone, iPad, camera. Highly recommmended.
Just being pro-active since I live a block away from an earthquake fault in the foothills of Southern California.
A worker tends to one of the solar panels Sarnia Solar Project, in Sarnia Ontario, Canada. The 950 acre facility has 1.3 million panels and produces 80-megawatt which is enough power to service 292,000 homes, making the solar farm the largest solar farm in the world.
On Tuesday, October 20th, Lt. Governor Karyn Polito was joined by Secretary of Transportation Stephanie Pollack to kick off the launch of the MassDOT Solar Panel Project Launch at a solar panel site in Framingham.

IVANPAH, CALIFORNIA, APRIL 02 2013: Close up of the base of Tower 1 at the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility. Located in the Mojave Desert 40 miles southwest of Las Vegas, The Ivanpah Solar Power Facility is a solar thermal power project, currently under construction, with a planned capacity of 392 megawatts, enough to power approximately 140,000 houses. It will deploy 170,000 heliostat mirrors spread over 4,000 hectares, focusing solar energy on boilers located atop three solar power towers, generating steam to drive specially adapted steam turbines The project, developed by Bechtel, will cost $2.2 billion and be the largest solar farm in the world (photo Gilles Mingasson/Getty Images for Bechtel).
Demanding good jobs, healthier communities, and frontline justice with 100% clean, renewable energy, hundreds of New Yorkers converged on the State Capitol on Wednesday to call on Governor Cuomo and state lawmakers to support the NYS Climate & Community Protection Act (A.10342) – the nation’s strongest climate protection bill. NY Renews, a historic group of labor, environmental, and grassroots organizations, is coming together for the first time to trailblaze a new front in the fight against climate change – pushing the climate protection debate from an environmental discussion to an economic and social justice one.

These appear to be solar powered, could be new as look quite different to the ones I have seen in the past.

Esenaman once used to be one of the major watering spots for the Garagum livestock; one of Turkmenistan’s most lucrative economic sectors. Now, all that the rusty steel pipes leading into the reservoir of water serve as is a reminder of its past. Climate change and harsh weather conditions dried up the devices used to collect and store water. Shepherds and herders brought their livestock elsewhere to graze, putting pressure on those land areas.
Now a solar-powered pump and renovated containment systems will provide water for the livestock to return.

Baltimore City has created the solar powered water wheel, a 100,000-pound trash-collecting device that harness solar power and the current. Debris is funneled into the device and then onto a conveyor belt that deposits it into a dumpster, which is emptied once full.
To solve the problem of sustainable energy access for war returnees, the UNDP renewable energy challenge asked citizens around the world to design an affordable, easy-to-maintain energy solution.
The objective is to give access to energy for over 3,000 families who were without electricity for more than a decade upon returning home after the war.
Almost eight months and 37 solutions later, we are in the final stage of the challenge: field testing.
