 Affordable, Scalable Clean Energy Storage and Reuse
A Revolution for the Hydrogen Economy?
Clean Tech Trends
An exciting new discovery has been made by Canadian scientists that would allow the electrolysis of water for hydrogen generation. The discovery would allow renewable energy to be stored and reused at a cost of 1000 less than technologies previously developed.
One of the biggest impediments to affordable renewable energy use on a mass-scale has been timing. Peak use does not necessarily coincide with peak production of wind and solar energy, and storing the energy has not been an affordable option.
Such energy is clean and renewable, but it’s available only when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing. The new technology opens the door to homeowners and energy companies being able to easily store and reuse solar and wind power.

Recruiting Success Stories
Featured Placement – Ken Oatman
Central Regional Sales Manager, Solar Equipment & Solutions
Striving to be a leading renewable energy equipment and turnkey solution provider globally, the company has an unswerving commitment to delivering the highest quality and most cost-effective solar solutions. Understanding the company’s strategy and their vision of partnering to achieve their customers’ most challenging goals, when the VP of Sales needed to hire a Central Regional Sales Manager, Redfish Technology immediately knew who to look for. The role required a solar visionary, a sales management leader, and a solutions innovator.
Ken Oatman is one of those quintessential sales leaders with over 20 years of experience in Consultative Solution Selling, Key Account Management, and Channel Development. He has rich experience and a solid history of success in building business in residential and commercial PV system sales, bringing over 500 new customers to his last company. Ken is a highly organized, hands-on manager, who does what it takes to make his team and everyone else around him successful. His familiarity with the company’s solar products, his regional connections, and his tremendous knowledge of state and federal incentives made him the perfect candidate for the job.
“Greg Schreiner was meticulous with communication, follow up, and finesse while helping me land my dream job. What I didn’t anticipate is how he helped me as a career coach, which is a great service during a major life transition like changing jobs. I have referred multiple other candidates back to Redfish because it’s a quality organization.” – Ken Oatman

 John Whitney Categorizing Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems
By John Whitney, AIA
What circumstances make hybrid power systems reasonable, economical, and/or highly desirable?
This is a work in progress, but I would like to achieve more clarity in my thinking about hybrid renewable energy systems. Here’s what I’ve got so far (I’m looking for feedback):
By their very nature, hybrid energy systems are developed to solve a problem with a stand-alone generation system. The problem can be situational (remote location makes access to conventional fuels and power grid difficult or impossible) or it can be a system-specific shortcoming (i.e., the intermittent nature of some renewable generation technologies). Additional stimulus for their use may include environmental (desire to lessen impact of conventional generation plant), or economical (use of multiple energy sources to drive a shared generation technology and transmission access) motives.

Green Trends
How can the Clean Economy be fostered and what is the potential?
In the midst of the ideological divergence and posturing in Washington, it is refreshing to see some clear numbers that point to positive impactful investment and jobs in the green economy. The Metropolitan Policy Program at the Brookings Institute recently published their report “Sizing the Clean Economy” which ask and answers “The question before us: at a time of economic uncertainty and federal polarization, can America’s cities and metropolitan areas lead the nation to a clean economy—to create jobs in the near term and retool and restructure our economy for the long haul?”
This report discussed three important findings. First, the clean economy is a significant emerging market in the U.S. Second, metropolitan areas are the innovators of the clean economy. Third, to fulfill the potential of the emerging clean economy, the entrepreneurial energy and dynamism of these metropolitan engines must be liberated. (more…)

Ultra High Voltage (UHV) Transmission Could be Our Renewable Energy Interstate
 John Whitney By John Whitney AIA
The renewable energy transformation of the United States is confronted with two serious challenges: Addressing intermittency in power generation and transmitting low cost renewable power from renewable resource rich regions to the rest of the country. In just the past three years, China has taken the lead in development of ultra high voltage (UHV) transmission lines to address both of these issues. China’s elegant, simple, and cost-effective solution to these challenges is now being implemented in Brazil and India, but in the U.S. depressingly little activity on this front can be observed.
While viable renewable energy resources are available throughout the United States, certain regions are blessed with truly remarkable renewable assets: Solar power in the insolation intense Southwest, on-shore wind generation in the windy Great Plains, hydropower in the Northwest and Northeast, and deep enhanced geothermal in the West. With constantly improving technology and steadily dropping costs, renewable energy power generation is now cost effective in many regions of the U.S. However, apologists for the conventional power generation industry continue to argue that without aggressive incentivization and subsidies, power from renewable generation sources is just too costly for most of the country.

Does Concentrated Solar Power Have the Answer to Intermittency Concerns?
by John Whitney AIA
For some time now, the intermittent nature of both solar and wind renewable energy generation systems has been a thorn in the side of the clean energy industry. Coal, natural gas, and nuclear advocates have trumpeted the fact that generation capacity factors for their power plants range from 85% to 90% while solar and wind numbers are in the 20% to 35% range. Over and over we get hammered with the question: What happens when the sun goes down and the wind stops blowing?
Well, as renewable energy supporters have been correctly responding, the simple two-part reply is: (more…)
