HEB unveils rooftop panels in Weslaco; hails installation as one of 'largest in Texas'

WESLACO — H-E-B unveiled on Friday the installation of what it calls the largest rooftop solar panel system in the state at its Weslaco Retail Support Center.

In doing so, carbon dioxide emissions at the center will be reduced by more than 20,000 tons over the next 20 years — the equivalent of removing about 4,000 cars from U.S. roads, according to an H-E-B news release issued Thursday.

With more than 3,000 solar panels spanning 105,000 square feet, the 1.2 megawatt installation in Weslaco is also hailed as the largest in the company, and it took just a few weeks to erect.

“The project started June 8 and ended on June 30,” said Nicole Ceckiewicz, H-E-B’s public affairs intern for the border region.

She could not, however, determine how long ago the project was conceived or the amount of savings in utility costs that the new solar energy source will provide, which in the center’s case will accommodate between 45 to 55 percent of its electricity needs.

“The company has always been trying to go green and to be good stewards to the environment, so this is right along with what we’ve always done,” Ceckiewicz added, citing a commitment by the company to reduce CO2 emissions and the use of diesel fuel as well as promoting cleaner sources of energy and waste disposal.

H-E-B Public Affairs Senior Manager Linda Tovar said via email that the company was “thrilled about creating an innovative, clean, renewable energy source” for the center, which itself is a 408,000 sq. ft. facility that employs 120 people in service of more than 40 Rio Grande Valley stores.

At the unveiling ceremony on Friday, H-E-B also donated $10,000 to the Boys & Girls Club of Weslaco “for environmental and conservation programming” in an educational capacity.

SolarCity designed, installed and will maintain the solar panels at the center. Erik Fogelberg, Commercial Sales and Storage Solutions senior vice president for SolarCity, said that his company was excited to learn of H-E-B’s plans.

“Texas is the nation’s largest energy producer, and also leads the country in energy consumption,” Fogelberg stated in the release. “With its high number of sunny days per year, the state has an incredible potential for solar power.”

Partnering with SolarCity since 2013, Direct Energy Business provides additional “expertise and market knowledge” for commercial and industrial customers’ Total Energy Management services.

“We are very excited to have been a part of this project, and we look forward to seeing the results that solar technology can bring to our valued customer, H-E-B,” Vice President David Brast said.

Duke Energy breaking ground for solar farm at Camp Lejeune - San Antonio Express-News

CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. (AP) — Duke Energy Corp. is breaking ground on a solar energy farm on the East Coast’s largest Marine Corps base as the military diversifies from petroleum power.

The country’s largest electric company is starting construction Friday at Camp Lejeune on a 13-megawatt solar array on 100 acres. The project’s goal is helping the Navy and Marines meet their energy and security goals while furthering Duke Energy’s renewable energy holdings.

The Navy has decided its reliance on oil is a national security problem and plans to produce at least half of its on-shore energy needs from alternative sources by 2020.

Duke Energy is required by state law to generate 12.5 percent of its electricity from renewable sources by 2021. Duke is investing about $500 million on three other North Carolina solar projects.

Australia really cares about wind and solar energy – infographic

Have you ever wondered what countries spend the most time looking up things like wind energy and solar power? Well, thanks to this research, you no longer have to.

US company SaveOn Energy looked at Google trends to establish where most people looked up these topics, providing a good clue as to where it is part of the national psyche.

“We researched action phrases people may search for when looking into certain environmentally friendly activities,” says the company, “then we used Google Trends to rank the results by topic and state.”

On a global level Australia leads the way. The top ranked country to look up “solar power”, Australia also ranks second with regards “wind power”.

Naturally enough Europe is only prominent in the wind energy realm. It turns out the lack of sun greatly affects our thirst for solar energy.

In the US it turns out that California and Washington State are the places most likely to see people looking up “how to recycle” or “how to reuse”, with Idaho “how to garden” and Colorado “how to compost” emerging top of their class.

California installed more rooftop solar panels in 2013 than in the previous 30 years combined. Tellingly, it was the only state to see people looking up “how to install solar panels” in any great numbers.

Air quality is a concern for coastal states, with actual energy production – similar to farming and soil concerns – more prominent as you move inland.

'Fallout Shelter' news: First update for mobile game now live

Bethesda

“Fallout Shelter” is becoming a sensation, which is why Bethesda isn’t wasting any time in improving the mobile simulation game. Apart from much-needed changes, its first update introduces the new Photo Mode feature, which allows players to take a screenshot of their vault. 

To capture that special “Fallout Shelter” moment with those adorable vault dwellers, gamers simply need to tap the button at the bottom left corner of the screen. They can save the photo on the device or share it with their friends via their social media accounts. 

The update also fixes a bug that badger pregnant dwellers.

“Vault air filters have been causing some mothers to not deliver babies and we understand this is causing long term discomfort,” Bethesda said. 

With the update, all that’s taken care of. The game studio quipped that they can’t do much about the actual “discomfort [with] the baby coming out part.” Nevertheless, it’s good to know that pregnant dwellers will actually give birth this time. 

And lastly, the update should eliminate minor issues and bugs, which makes the game more stable now. Here is what Bethesda promises with the first ever update for “Fallout Shelter”:

• Overseers are encouraged to record any bizarre dweller behavior with the new Photo Feature. Sharing with those outside your Vault is optional, and will not result in your replacement or termination.


• Vault air filters have been causing some mothers to not deliver babies and we understand this is causing long term discomfort. We have solved this (not the discomfort, the baby coming out part).


• We’ve also done general maintenance to improve sudden Vault shut down and removed some other pesky issues with the capacitors inside various aspects of the simulation.

Those who have yet to experience the free game can head over here and get started with building a state-of-the-art underground vault.

Wind Turbine Design and Testing

You will use this hands-on activity to help elementary students learn about the engineering process while exploring wind power. You will introduce students to the history of wind power and how it is used today to generate electricity. Students will work through the engineering process by designing, building, testing and modifying wind turbine blades. 

To prepare for your classroom visit, about two weeks in advance, review the information in the Engineer Guide and the materials provided for this activity. Contact the teacher and provide them with the list of materials you need the class to gather for the hands-on experiment.
