For a wind farm designed on 20 years of historical data, this matters. A project that looks profitable today may deliver less energy in the future, on the opposite, way more. Uncertainty replaces confidence.
GoodPower’s new identity is paired with its 2030 Strategic Plan, “Upward Spiral.” The plan calls for scaling proven programs, investing in breakthrough technologies, and deepening work in communications, research, and grassroots field organizing.
Charitable giving isn’t just about dropping extra change in a donation jar or saying “yes” to a prompt at the cash register to tag on a dollar for a good cause.

Pumps are used in the cleantech industry to sustainably manage chemicals that may be dangerous to the environment
In a dramatic reversal, President Donald Trump has lifted a federal stop-work order on the $5 billion Empire Wind project off the coast of New York, reigniting one of America’s most ambitious offshore wind energy developments. The move comes just weeks after the Department of the Interior froze the project, citing concerns about marine life […]
On April 28, 2025, Spain and Portugal experienced a massive power outage that disrupted daily life for tens of millions. The blackout, which began around 12:30 p.m., led to halted transportation, communication failures, and significant economic losses. This event has sparked a critical examination of the challenges associated with the integration of renewable energy sources into national power grids.
Even die-hard skeptics now find it impossible to deny the presence of climate change. This is the very same reason why a growing number of businesses have decided to adopt a "greener" approach to their everyday operations. So, what can individual consumers do to lower their environmental footprint? One strategy involves what is commonly referred to as "off-grid" living.
About 90% of the lightning strikes that occur are negative polarity lightning, while positive polarity lightning occurs with a relatively low probability. However, positive polarity lightning has a much higher current intensity, increasing the likelihood of causing major accidents.
There are over 100 electric vehicle options in Ireland. Volkswagen is one option.
Is there a sweet spot for the speed of a wind farm's turbines? An Australian research team says there is.
"Renewables must grow at higher speed and scale. Our new report sheds light on the direction of travel; if we continue with the current growth rate, we will only face failure in reaching the tripling renewables target agreed in the UAE Consensus at COP28, consequently risking the goals of the Paris Agreement and 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.”
In recent years, the Middle East has emerged as a significant player in renewable energy, embracing the potential of wind power to diversify its energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
The Dumat Al-Jandal wind farm with a capacity of 400MW, stands as a pioneering endeavor in Saudi Arabia's renewable energy landscape in an ancient land.
The United Arab Emirates renewable energy company Masdar and Bapco Energies from Bahrain will co-develop up to 2GW of wind projects in the Kingdom of Bahrain, both parties announced this week.
The world’s renewable electricity capacity hit a record 473 GW in 2023, according to International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). And, no Turkey, nuclear energy is not renewable energy.
