Instant permits for residential solar with SolarApp And much much more clean energy and tech news.**Please subscribe to the channel **Likes, shares and comments are awesome - do it! We open the episode with a question: Why is space exploration important for humanity? Montague submits that space is important because it brings humanity together behind a single mission - to become a space faring species. It helps us put aside the age old us vs. them tribalism and warring that has marred humanity for milenia. The ISS is a great example. China is building a space station. They launched the first module on April 29, 2021. Will this help or hurt humanity? The first of 11 missions necessary to complete, supply and crew the station by the end of next year. https://twitter.com/SolarInMASS/status/1388857674385797123Meyer Burger Press release that explains why they are betting on the future of their heterojunction smartwire technology is the future HJT / TopCon / PERC https://www.meyerburger.com/fileadmin/user_upload/Downloads/Praesentationen/Meyer-Burger-Corporate-Presentation-April-2021-EN.pdf Artificial blowhole water turbine:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfHx6qy9S-YCarbon Tracker Report Demonstrates 100 percent wind and solar land use impacts are trivial https://carbontracker.org/reports/the-skys-the-limit-solar-wind/Bill McKibben: Renewable Energy Is Suddenly Startlingly Cheap.https://www.newyorker.com/news/annals-of-a-warming-planet/renewable-energy-is-suddenly-startlingly-cheapInstant Permits for Resi Solar?
