German concentrated solar thermal power developer Solar Millennium announced that it was selling Blythe and three other solar energy projects in its pipeline to solarhybrid.

Deepwater Wind has submitted a plan to develop an offshore wind farm. The 1,000-megawatt wind power project would be located between Block Island and Martha?s Vineyard and would boast as many as 200 wind turbines.

“After the successful installation of the Alpha Ventus and Ormonde offshore wind energy projects, we are very pleased to work together with Vattenfall also in the area of onshore wind power.”

As wind energy is being called to provide a greater share of the world’s energy burden, more wind turbines are operating in areas where temperature tests the machinery to its limits.

In 2010 more new wind farm capacity was made available in Europe than any other power generating technology, reaching a cumulative total of 84 GW.

The wind turbines industry has been a bright spot through the depths of the recession, creating one of the fastest-growing U.S. manufacturing sectors.

Investments in solar photovoltaic energy could double worldwide over the next 5 years, from 35 to 40 billion euros in 2010 to over 70 billion in 2015.

Colorado State hosts about 5,500 kilowatts of solar power on its campus, which is largely concentrated on a 30-acre solar energy plant on the Foothills Campus on the western edge of Fort Collins.

Crow Lake Wind Farm in Mitchell, S.D.: A 108-turbine wind farm, including seven community-owned wind turbines, that provides rural farmers and residents with locally generated power and financial returns.

REpower Systems SE and the Vattenfall have entered into a contract to deliver 36 wind turbines for use in a wind farm near Zeewolde, the Netherlands.

The U.S. Geological Survey has estimated that there could be as much as 16,500 megawatts of untapped power potential just from geothermal sources that have already been identified.

Prominent German solar power companies said at a forum organized by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) that they were considering entering the Ethiopian solar energy market.

Solar Millennium sold it’s 2.25 GW solar thermal project portfolio in the Southwest US to solarhybrid and said it would switch the projects from concentrated solar power (CSP) technology to solar energy photovoltaic

Stephen F. Hayward of the American Enterprise Institute authored a misleading blog article on wind power. The following response from Michael Goggin, AWEA Manager of Transmission Policy, was posted as a comment.

The largest wind energy plant in Argentina, consisting of V90-1.8 MW wind turbines, has been inaugurated by Argentina?s President, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.

Vestas officially inaugurated a new wind turbines sales and wind farm operations office in Buenos Aires located in the heart of the new city’s business district in Puerto Madero.
