BEIJING , March 2, 2022 /CNW/ -- JA Solar's DeepBlue 3.0, among multiple JA Solar PV modules, was recently awarded with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification by UL, the global safety science leader. The UL EPD report, also accredited by EPD Italy, gives a comprehensive assessment of the environmental impact of the product over its entire life cycle, including possible impacts such as global warming, smog, ozone depletion, acidification, ecotoxicity, etc., and is applicable to the two global leading markets America and Europe . The assessment process follows ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards, and its assessment result provides an important reference for investors to choose low-carbon products.

While PV power is a renewable energy with great potential for development and application, the impact of PV products on the environment over the entire life cycle has been one of concern in the end-use market. Therefore, JA Solar always follows the path of green development, by applying the concept of green environmental protection throughout the entire life cycle of its products, including R&D, production, packaging, logistics and product recycling, so as to reduce environmental impact and resource consumption.

During the process of product manufacturing, JA Solar actively advocates the application of green energy. Its production bases utilize roof space, carports, and other unused spaces to install PV systems to generate electricity for self-use with surplus electricity injected to the grid, thereby reducing the demand for traditional energy so as to reduce carbon emissions. Among them is JA Solar's manufacturing base in Qujing, Yunnan Province , which, by utilizing rich water resources in the local area, uses clean energy generated by hydropower that accounts for more than 85% of its total energy consumption.

The solar energy industry has grown rapidly even as fossil fuels remain the dominant source of global energy use. While some large utilities and energy companies have solar and renewable energy divisions, these businesses typically are not included in the industry’s listings because the parent’s primary focus is not solar. Here are the top three solar stocks with the best value, the fastest growth, and the most momentum.

All energy sectors have been volatile, but the general direction has been up, with an excellent long-term setup for investors.

“He came up fast and out of nowhere. Scared the daylights out of me.”

Scientists have been playing god with mosquitos for a couple of years now. Back in 2021, British company Oxitech released 750 million lab-modified mosquitos in Florida. Now, the company is gearing up to release another 2 billion genetically modified mosquitos across more of Florida and in California as well. A company is about to unleash … The post 2 billion genetically modified mosquitos are about to be released in the US appeared first on BGR.

Based on the company's current staffing levels, Enbridge only needs about half of the amount of space it has in the Galleria area.

Utility executives said on Thursday that their industry is facing higher costs in years to come to deal with the twin challenges of the transition to clean energy and protecting grids against worsening climate events. A lower-carbon emissions world will mean further electrification and development of renewable fuels when more than 60% of global power is generated from fossil fuels. "The analysis is sobering," said Pedro Pizarro, chief executive officer of Edison International, the parent company of Southern California Edison, one of the largest U.S. utilities.

Projects all over the cities are being delayed due to the fact they can't get service from PG&E, and the process can sometimes take as long as 12 months, says Hans Hansson.

The war in Ukraine is reviving a debate on whether natural gas is a climate friend or foe, as Europe's energy crisis triggers urgent calls for U.S. and Middle East gas producers to rush new supplies to market. Once considered the cleaner-burning fuel compared with coal and oil, gas lost its luster over growing recognition of production and transportation leaks that contribute to global warming. Energy executives and government officials gathered at the CERAWeek conference in Houston this week said global security would be stronger if gas was more readily available, and used Moscow's invasion of Ukraine and Europe's dependence on Russia's gas to press their case.

These environmentally-friendly homes are all on the market now.

Ford Motor Co. and California utility PG&E Corp. plan to test the ability of the F-150 Lightning to provide backup power to homes and connect the electric vehicle to the power grid, PG&E CEO Patti Poppe and Ford CEO Jim Farley said Thursday at the CERAWeek by S&P Global energy conference in Houston. Tests will start this spring, when Ford is scheduled to begin selling the F-150 Lightning, the electric version of the nation's top-selling pickup truck.

In its first impact report since creating several environmental and diversity goals for the coming years, Nike says it has made progress on a majority of them. This report, called “Breaking Barriers,” marks the 20th year Beaverton-based Nike (NYSE: NKE) has released information on its environmental footprint, the working conditions for its overseas laborers and its ongoing efforts to make its workforce more diverse. In 2020, Nike announced 29 specific targets that it would like to achieve by 2025.

More than 55 tons of lettuce have been fed to starving Florida manatees as part of an experimental program to help the slow-moving marine mammals since their natural food is being destroyed by water pollution, wildlife officials said Wednesday. The lettuce, funded by more than 1,000 individual donations, is offered to manatees that gather in the warm water discharge near a power plant on Florida's east coast as they typically do during cold months. Officials from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said in a conference call that the feeding program has made a difference.

Demand for renewable-energy installations is only going to get stronger as Europe moves to wean itself of Russian gas. Companies may get more orders, but fulfilling them profitably is the real challenge.

Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) and Ford Motor Company are collaborating to explore how Ford's new F-150 Lightning electric pickup truck can provide backup power for customers' homes in the California utility's service area. Earlier this week, PG&E said it would work with General Motors on a similar pilot that involves testing bidirectional charging capabilities to send electricity from the grid to the EV's battery and back in the event of an outage. “Today, we are seeing breakthrough opportunities at the intersection of the energy and transportation industries," said PG&E CEO Patti Poppe in a statement.

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) on Thursday called on President Biden to invoke the Defense Production Act (DPA) if necessary to complete a U.S. natural gas pipeline following the ban on oil imports from Russia.The West Virginia Democrat - at a Thursday hearing of the Senate Energy Committee, which he chairs - called the 303-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline "the quickest thing that we can get, it's more energy into the market that's going to be needed."...

The nation's second-largest reservoir, Lake Powell, is continuing to dry up, placing water supplies and power generation in the West in potentially dire straits. Lake Powell is an artificial lake in the middle of the Colorado River on the border between Arizona and Utah. Created in 1963 after the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam, the lake has become a critical source of hydropower and water for the West. Now, for the first time, the water levels at the lake are threatening to dip below 3,525
