But if the province’s prominent feed-in tariff (FIT) program was designed to encourage the development of more local renewable power, it’s also had the effect of bringing in some international criticism.

		<description><![CDATA[Solar-powered calculators and emergency mobile phones may be nothing new, but these days solar panels are popping up in the quirkiest of places. Solar-powered backpacks, radios, flashlights, lighters and solar fans are no longer the fodder of Star Trek episodes.   The Solar fan, for example, can reduce the temperature by up to 40 degrees<a class="readMoreLink" href="http://www.centreflow.ca/2009/04/01/fly-me-to-the-sun/">Read More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A key challenge for solar power is that power production grinds to a halt when the sun isn’t shining – say, for example, at night. An obvious problem, one that seemingly can’t be avoided. But what about moving solar power generation to where there is no night? It makes sense. Photovoltaic systems that convert solar energy<a class="readMoreLink" href="http://www.centreflow.ca/2009/03/27/nunavut-arctic-college-photovoltaics/">Read More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And the winner is: solar power. In 2008, applications for solar power technology were popping up all over the place. Try the golf course – where the sun is always supposed to be shining, in theory anyway.  But what needs power on the back nine?  You do, if you’re playing all 18.  Soon solar-powered golf<a class="readMoreLink" href="http://www.centreflow.ca/2008/12/22/the-top-energy-trend-of-2008/">Read More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every hour, the sun transmits enough energy here to satisfy the energy requirements for the entire planet for an entire year. So why are we using anything else? Solar power technology isn’t quite there yet, but recent developments are providing a glimmer of hope.

Often the small victories get ignored, taking a backseat to the attention grabbing headlines that promise massive reductions in greenhouse gas emissions or a new leading edge technology.

		<description><![CDATA[According to researchers at MIT, solar power might benefit from a splash of colour. As reported in a recent article in Nature, researchers have found that thin films coloured with organic dyes and affixed to glass are able to increase the efficiency of solar panels, maximizing their energy output. These “solar concentrators” work by absorbing<a class="readMoreLink" href="http://www.centreflow.ca/2008/07/24/dyeing-for-sunlight/">Read More...</a>]]></description>
