America Green Supports Renewable Energy Worldwide

LOS ANGELES - Dec. 23, 2015 - PRLog -- Go Green! Save Green! Is our motto. Worldwide majority of the countries are further in renewable energy than we are. Here are some of the coolest Solar Powered Projects across the globe:

Sanyo's Solar Ark

It is amazing what can be constructed from material that was to be thrown away. That is what occured with Sanyo who aimed to make the largest PV system in the world, a 3.4 MW installation, in order to mark its 50th anniversary. The problem? The company's monocrystalline cell scandal that saw thousands of units recalled, and all of the reclaimed cells were destined for the dump. But Sanyo opted to built a massive monument to their solar technology. At the time, Sanyo said of their Gifu (Japan) based building that it was “to show our sincere regret that this problem has occurred and to express our willingness and determination to both remember what happened and how important it is to maintain quality.” However, they need not apologize, as the Ark is an impressive 630kW solar collecting building that has over 5,000 solar panels and produces over 500,000 kWh of energy per year. Not just that, but all over the Solar Ark's 1,033ft exterior are over 75,000 colored LEDs that can light up to create images and messages. Inside the Ark is a solar museum and laboratory where Sanyo are working on the next generation of solar technology.

Sahara Forest Project

Designed by biomimicry architect Michael Pawlyn, Seawater Greenhouse designer Charlie Paton, and structural engineer Bill Watts, the Sahara Forest aims to enable restorative growth in the world's most arid regions.

Developed between Bellona, an international environmental NGO based in Norway and King Abdullah II of Jordan, the project will hopefully first get the go-ahead in his country. The team have even been invited to the country to discuss a feasibility study.

Currently, the project is scheduled to go ahead in 2015, and if it is a success, it will have massive environmental benefits, such as alleviating food and water shortage, producing biofuels, and contributing to forestation efforts in desert lands.

The Vatican

Solar power must be the future if the Catholic Church is getting on board with it. In fact, the Vatican is so into alternative energy, the city has the largest solar power plant in Europe.

Although it is the smallest country in the world, the Vatican has spent $660 million to build a massive 100MW photovoltaic installation. The output will be more than enough to provide enough power for the whole country.

The main installation is located on a 740 acre site near Santa Maria di Galeria and has seen solar powers placed all over the city.

Let us be part of the worldwide movement towards renewable energy!
