The California Solar Initiative is part of the Go Solar California campaign and builds on 10 years of state solar rebates offered to customers in Californias investor-owned utility territories: Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), Southern California Edison (SCE), and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E). The California Solar Initiative is overseen by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). This programme builds on the 1998 Emerging Renewables Program (ERP) and the 2001 Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP). In August 2004, Governor Schwarzenegger affirmed his support for solar energy, and announced the Million Solar Roofs programme, and in 2006, the CPUC developed the framework of the California Solar Initiative Program through 2016. This initiative creates a ten-year programme to put solar on a million roofs in the state of California. Programme components include: the Low-Income Single Family Program, the Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing (MASH) Program, the Research, Development, Deployment, and Demonstration (RD&D) Program, and the Solar Hot Water Heating Pilot Program.

Low Gas Storage and Diesel Shortages Threaten Europe’s Winter Supply

Tightening global supply of oil and gas is putting Europe on course for a difficult winter this year due to the continent’s significant dependence on energy imports, despite energy transition ambitions. Gas in storage is much lower than it should be, and a diesel crunch is threatening fuel oil supply security for the heating season. It could turn into a perfect storm. The first warning signs emerged as early as March, as the U.S. and Israeli war against Iran crippled Qatar’s LNG export infrastructure, forcing the Gulf state to declare…

Cooling Emissions Are Set to Triple by 2050 as Heat Waves Intensify

Air-conditioning units are increasingly being considered as “essential infrastructure” as summer heat waves turn into a deadly and increasingly regular occurrence. But while air conditioning inarguably saves lives, in the short term, they are simultaneously contributing to global warming and distracting from other, more important approaches to managing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change.…
