Westinghouse is a subsidiary of Japanese tech giant Toshiba and the designer and builder of the four under construction AP1000 nuclear reactors at Vogtle and Summer. The reactor design is yet to be operational anywhere in the world. The projects in both South Carolina and Georgia have been plagued with problems and are nearly four years delayed and many billions of dollars over budget. In fact, all four reactors were supposed to be operating by now(April 1, 2017 to be exact).<br>https://centurysolarsystem.com/westinghouse-bankruptcy-nuclear-train-wrecks-for-georgia-and-south-carolina/

Home Solar System Financing The cost of an average solar electric system can cost between $5,0000-$30,000 after rebates and incentives. Solar is an investment and like any other financial instrument there is a return on your investment after time. But unlike the stock market, the payback on your solar investment is guaranteed! The sun shines everyday. If you consider the fact that you will spend over $60,000 over the next 20 years, getting solar now makes sense. However, for too many people, that still represents too large of an up front payment.
The good news is that our solar partners offer a variety of great solar financing options to help offset some of initial solar installation costs. In most cases, the monthly payment on any financing arrangement will still be less than the amount of savings on your electric bill. Low interest rates are available for a solar home financing for as little to $0 down!
PV systems can be designed to supply power to any type of electrical load at any service voltage. PV arrays can be mounted on the ground, rooftops and other structures that provide adequate protection, support and solar access. The site conditions usually dictate the best mounting system location and approach to use. Rooftops are very popular locations for installing PV arrays. Because they are elevated, roof mounts offer some physical protection and limited access to the array for safety, and usually provide better sun exposure.
Rooftop PV installations also do not occupy space on the ground that might be needed for other purposes. Rooftop and other building mounted PV arrays must be structurally secured and any attachments and penetrations must be properly weather sealed. Available rooftop areas for mounting PV arrays may be limited by any number of factors, including required spaces about the array for installation and service, pathways and ventilation access for fire codes, wind load setbacks, and spaces for other equipment.
Sloped roofs also present a significant fall hazard, and require appropriate fall protection systems and/or personal fall arrest systems (PFAS) for installers and maintenance workers. The layout of a PV array can have a significant effect on its natural cooling and operating temperatures. A landscape (horizontal) layout may have a slight benefit over a portrait (vertical) layout when considering the passive cooling of the modules.
Landscape is when the dimension parallel to the eaves is longer than the dimension perpendicular to the eaves. In a landscape layout, air spends less time under the module before escaping and provides more uniform cooling. Standoff mounts operate coolest when they are mounted at least 3 inches above a roof.
GROUND-MOUNT SYSTEMS Generally, ground mount solar panels cost a bit more than rooftop solar on a per-watt basis because of additional labor and permitting that may be required for the installation. That being said, if your property isn’t ideal for rooftop solar, installing a ground-mounted system can actually save you money
ROOFTOP SYSTEMS Standoff mounting, referred to by some as flush mounting, uses standoffs attached to the roof to support rails on which PV modules are attached. This is the most common method for residential installations.

Consumption Monitoring With electric bills increasing, more and more homeowners want to be more aware of how and when they consume energy so they can better manage their energy consumption and lower their costs and impact on the environment.
It’s not surprising that the National Football League (NFL), a massive American industry, also contains a massive carbon footprint. In fact, the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium consumes about 750 megawatts of electricity during peak times – which is apparently enough to power a midsize US city. So, how does Atlanta, a city that recently committed to 100% clean energy by 2035, and our brand new stadium, Mercedes-Benz, compete on the largest stage of the year when it comes to sustainability?
The Mercedes-Benz Stadium, which opened in 2017, is the first sports stadium in the world to achieve a LEED Platinum designation, which is the highest certification from the U.S. Green Buildings Council. Some of the highlights include carports covered in 4,000 PV solar panels, a 2 million gallon stormwater recapture and storage system, and the world’s largest LED lighting scoreboard. When it comes to traveling to the actual game, the stadium provides a bike valet option outside, and 48 Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations in nearby parking lots.
Off the field, the home teams from both the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United F.C. participate in sustainable practices in the Atlanta community, like participating in food recovery and donation activities and partnering with Trees Atlanta. But why did Atlanta go all in on this state of the art LEED Platinum building? Arthur Blank (or Uncle Arthur as we like to call him), is the owner of the Falcons and main funder behind the new stadium. He apparently told the architects that sustainability was an important factor from day 1:“We set out to build a venue that would not only exceed expectations, but also push the limits of what was possible in terms of stadium design, fan experience, and sustainability,” Blank said.
Sure, having the honor of building the most sustainable stadium in the world is an amazing accomplishment to flaunt, but I have to believe that it’s more than that – it’s about the money.Blank, a businessman at heart, had to be thinking about the long-term savings. And the numbers from the first few years of operation show just that: The stadium uses 47% less water and 29% less energy than a typical stadium, greatly lowering the costs to put on these massive sporting events.
