Renewable energy development

With all the research that I found about wind turbines I know now what all the side effects of these low frequency sound waves are and what they can do to one’s health. When searching for news articles on wind energy I came across a lot of positive articles on wind energy and how it can greatly benefit our nation and our world, but seemed to not come across to much of the downside of wind turbines and the potential hazards they have on our health and even the environment. It wasn’t until…

SFS Energy Finance Americas (“SFS EF AM”) requests approval to commit up to $50 million to Cedro Hill Wind LLC’s (“Cedro Hill” or the “Borrower”) $167.5 million Senior Secured Term Loan (the “Term Loan”). Net proceeds from the Term Loan will be used to recapitalize the Borrower, including the refinancing of the outstanding Term Loan and upstream dividends to the equity investors. The proposed transaction will increase the existing Term Loan to $167.5 million from currently outstanding amount of…

of statistics. This implies that the increase in the emission of carbon is proportional to the increase in the renewable energy supply. The question is why the increase in the CO2 emission leads to the increase in the renewable energy adoption? This might probably be as a result of government regulation which emphasize that as the CO2 emission increases, the need to switch to green energy increases, and that this comes with an option of not exceeding the compulsory emission caps (Huber &…

The Justice department prosecuted a subsidiary of Duke Energy for killing golden eagles and other protected birds, ending the legal double standards on enforcement. The federal subsidies had fueled the wind turbine growth as well as wind-related jobs are costing millions of dollars to the common taxpayer. Apart…

Wind energy is one of the fastest growing renewable energy source in the world. While massive wind farms, both onshore and offshore, are the primary focus as of late, microgeneration wind energy is a viable option for urban areas. Microgeneration wind energy is the small-scale implementation of wind turbines with the means of collecting wind energy. The use of small-scale wind energy is a perfect option for urban centers; microgeneration wind energy can be implemented through retrofitting…

Us as a nation, and the Republican Party, don 't seem to pay attention to combating climate change. We have to try for clean, sustainable energy, and revolutionize our electric and transportation infrastructure. Bernie has issued a call for climate justice and actions to keep fossil fuels in the ground and support communities suffering from climate and environmental impacts. While fossil fuel…

mechanics to generate electricity, energy has always played a significant role in society. In today 's world, the technological advances allow for more efficient ways to generate, gather, and store electricity. Not only are some of these new advances more efficient, but they are cleaner for the environment. One of the clean energy phenomena that have significantly impacted the energy world is the advancement in wind turbines. Wind turbines are a clean source of energy that provides communities a…

Did you know fire extinguishers were made in the 1818’s? So why did the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory not come with any? The owners and building constructors were not very prepared with all the safety regulations. This is because all the workers were in danger every day they worked. Not all of them could have gotten out of the building in case of an emergency. In the text Flesh and Blood So Cheap by Albert Marrin, there is many explicit and implicit evidence. This evidence proves there was a lack…

relation to both raw materials and energy they need to operate. We can see there that IKEA is using 1% of the global wood yearly. With such an impact on natural resources, a sustainable approach is necessary in order to secure resources for production and to prosper in the future. We would argue that sustainability is actually a tool for long-term contingency and not only a result of marketing ambitions. We can also see that the company is concerned with their energy consumption and has an…

In this proposal, we outline our goals for a new environmentally sustainable hotel in the Chianti area of the Tuscany region. The adventure began back in 2015 when we decided to revert back to the real values and experiences of nature and make an important change in our lifestyle. We moved from our city life environment in the Chianti Classico region and began the restoration of a rural farmhouse and garden with great enthusiasm. The idea of starting a Boutique Farm Hotel also gave us the…
