Portable solar panels are now introduced in the market and people find it far easier and convenient to use it for their daily lives.

This year’s convention will also introduce methods to control and bring down the carbon and water footprints produced by the oil and gas industry. In addition, it will emphasize the greater capability of alternative energy sources to fulfill the requirements of a rapidly increasing world population.

Harry Atwater, while standing in the lab of Caltech, shows a plastic panel with thickness less than one millimeter. The room was illuminated but the surface of panel still appears to be jet black. It absorbs all the light striking on its surface.

This high-tech material absorbs light 10 times efficiently as compared to the in-use silicon cells which are installed on the roofs of houses to gather sun energy.

Solar Shingles are the solar power equipments that gives you the complete facility at your home place, maintaining your home design along with the provision of solar power.

Solar energy is highly important for us, and we most commonly use it in the form of electricity when the solar energy is converted into electricity by the solar panels.

Since solar panels are so huge, it was then thought to make it further easier, and the flexible solar panels are now brought in use.

The researchers will test it for next one or two years with an aim to develop a turbine with double in size and four times in production without affecting its cost so that the price remains the same.

Everpower investment is wholly financed with equity from Terra Firma’s buy-out and with no debt. This new trend of being financed from equity groups shows how private equity groups are becoming best option for smaller, more innovative deals when there is a lack of financing from banks.

Desertec would be the world’s most challenging solar power project. It will approximately take up $573 billion to start. Fields of mirrors in Sahara would collect solar energy to be used for boiling water. That would turn turbines to electrify a carbon-free network established between Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.

Michael Fraser, who is an AGL Energy chief executive, says recently passed bill of renewable energy target (RET) is having very significance for AGL. AGL is the largest developer of renewable assets in Australia. This new passage will trigger their development programs.

Mr. Fraser told that approximately $25 billion to $30 billion of renewable projects would require to be completed during the next decade. This is how we can meet RET target.

“We intend to develop a pipeline of our projects so when we look over the next decade that’s probably six to seven billion dollars worth of projects on our own,”

The event will showcase many big advancements and latest innovations in renewable energy technologies. Solar09 is aimed to provide food for thought on many issues that are influencing Australia’s alternative energy policy.
