That newer trend has seen a growing number of embattled Chinese solar panel ma

The growth of solar has continued at a furious pace, with a new record of 6.2 gigawatts installed in the United States in 2014.

Oman is aiming to double its refining capacity to 312,000 bbl/day by 2019 through upgrades and new constructions.

The lie goes something like this: Households and business that install photovoltaic panels are doing so at the expense of other electricity ratepayers because they are “subsidized” by those that don’t have solar panels.

Sweden and Norway agreed to boost their target for renewable energy production amid concerns the additional capacity will exacerbate a power glut and strain the region’s electricity grid.
