January 1, 2009 - 2008: A Benchmark for Renewable Energy - Inside Renewable Energy

The end of the year offers us an opportunity to reflect on our accomplishments and setbacks over the previous twelve months. It also gives us the chance to think about what the coming twelve months will bring. In this episode, we're featuring a roundtable conversation on the status of renewables from last month's Power-Gen International Conference. The panel discussion is a good overview of where the wind, solar and hydro industries are today, and serves as an important benchmark as we evaluate the progress of renewables over 2009. Thank you very much to our faithful listeners for giving us so much feedback over the last year. We will continue to bring you the most engaging, comprehensive news and information on renewable energy in the coming year!

December 22, 2008 - Exploring the German Renewable Energy Market - Inside Renewable Energy

This week, we're podcasting from Germany to get a better sense for how one of the world's leading renewable energy markets is fairing during these tough economic times. Despite the projected global slowdown throughout the renewable energy industries next year, Germany is preparing for an increase in installed wind capacity and only a slight drop in solar PV installations. We're traveling throughout Germany to get a sense for how the country is moving forward and remaining a leader in development of renewable energies. We'll talk to investors, manufacturers, scientists and teachers about where the market is today and where it will go tomorrow. Thanks very much to the non-profit organization Inwent for setting up the trip and arranging the interviews. Inside Renewable Energy offers the latest in renewable energy news and information.

December 11, 2008 - Energy Businesses Recognizing the Need to Diversify - Inside Renewable Energy

This week, we're podcasting from the Power-Gen International conference in Orlando, Florida. This event is mostly geared toward traditional power companies; however, renewables are starting to play a bigger role at Power-Gen as businesses and investors in the space recognize the major changes taking place in the energy landscape. We'll speak to some company executives about how this shift is impacting the way companies operate. John Adams, vice president of new projects at Mitsubishi Power Systems describes the company's new 2.4-MW wind turbine as well as the reasons behind Mitsubishi's involvement in a wide range of energy sectors. Perry Fontana, vice president of projects at Ausra explains the elegance and simplicity of concentrating solar power. Alan Champagne, vice president of business development at CH2M HILL tells us about the need for traditional energy companies to diversify in order to succeed. And Joe Treshler of Covanta Energy talks about turning environmental problems into business opportunities. Make sure to check out the video interviews from Power-Gen International at our video section. Inside Renewable Energy offers the latest in renewable energy news and information.

December 4, 2008 - A Rough Patch for the U.S. PV Market; Building Relationships to Build Greener -

With the recent eight-year extension of the Investment Tax Credit for solar, many professionals are predicting rapid growth in the solar industry. However, because of problems in the tax equity market and other issues with state solar programs around the country, those predictions many not bear out in the short-term.

In this podcast, we'll look at some trends playing out in the U.S. solar market and how they may impact demand for PV over the coming year.

Then, we'll have some interviews from the Greenbuild Conference and Expo on building-integrated wind and PV systems, living roofs, and how renewable energy companies and traditional contractors are working together to increase the deployment of cleaner building materials, sustainable design techniques and renewable energies.

Also, be sure to check out the video feature published by RenewableEnergyWorld.com from the Greenbuild Conference and Expo.

November 20, 2008 - Exploring the Icelandic Geothermal Experience - Inside Renewable Energy

This week, we're podcasting to you from Iceland. The country has been getting a lot of attention lately -- and not just because of its severe economic problems. Iceland gets 78 percent of its primary energy from renewable resources, with 62 percent coming from geothermal. Now that more countries around the world are starting to get serious about deploying renewables on a meaningful scale, policy makers, business leaders and journalists are flocking to the country in greater numbers to learn from the Icelandic experience. In this podcast, we're traveling around the country to speak with some of the leaders in the geothermal industry. Iceland's President Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson describes the uniquely intimate relationship that Icelanders have with geothermal energy. Reykjavic Energy's Audur Björg shows us around the Hellsheidi Power Plant and gives us her view on the history of Iceland's use of geothermal. Albert Albertsson of Hitaveita Sudurnesja shows us around the Svartsengi Power Plant and talks about the company's goal of making geothermal projects both a personal and utilitarian experience. Steinar Gudlaugsson of Geysir Green Energy gives us an overview of the intense geologic activity occurring on and around the island. Ingvar Birgir Fridleifsson of the United Nations University Geothermal Training Program talks about the importance of spreading the country's geothermal experience to professionals in developing countries. And Hannes Pálsson gives us a sense for how the average Icelander views the progress that the country has made in renewable energy over the years.
