New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has announced the state is working to increase its use of renewable energy and combat climate change.</p>

<p>
Under the “50 by 30” plan, New York would source 50 percent of its electricity from clean energy sources by 2030. Several states, including Hawaii, California, Vermont and Oregon have announced similar plans. In the case of Hawaii, the state aims to bring its renewable portfolio standards to 100 percent by 2045.</p>

The solar industry is made up of hundreds of manufacturers, which can make it difficult for consumers to distinguish between offerings. By using the tier system developed by Bloomberg New Energy Finance, consumers have a quantifiable guide to a solar system’s reliability and longevity.</p>

<p>
According to a new study, the latest hot trend is solar energy! The U.S. solar industry had a record- breaking year in 2015 with 7.3 gigawatts of new solar systems installed. That’s a 17 percent increase from 2014, and the largest total ever.</p>

<p>
The study, which was conducted by GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association, found solar energy made up 29.5 percent of all new electric generating capacity in 2015. Residential solar systems saw the biggest gains, spiking 66 percent from the previous year.</p>

<p>
A new report from the United Nations found renewable energy reached a milestone last year. For the first time ever, clean energy sources accounted for the majority of new global electricity-generating capacity.&nbsp;</p>

<p>
The U.S. solar industry saw record capacity growth, as well as economic and environmental gains in 2015.</p>

A new survey from Bloomberg New Energy Finance has named Trina Solar the most bankable solar panel manufacturer in the world.</p>

<p>
The Bloomberg survey polled solar industry stakeholders including lenders, engineers and power producers. Trina was the only company considered bankable by 100 percent of respondents. The study also found Trina panels were used in more debt-financed projects than any other manufacturer’s in 2014 and 2015.</p>

<p>
The energy industry is currently undergoing a major revolution as solar power continues to move into areas previously reserved solely for traditional energy sources. This shift toward clean energy production comes even as the price of traditional sources declines, indicating a growing demand for renewable energy sources that extends beyond merely economic factors, although cost considerations always play a role in the decision-making process.</p>

Solar power makes strong progress</h2>

Trina Solar and design software company Aurora Solar are partnering with Greentech Media, a leading green technology news outlet, for a&nbsp;<a href="/us/blogs/http://www.greentechmedia.com/events/webinar/selectively-deploying-mlpe-... target="_blank">webinar on selectively deploying optimizers</a>using solar modeling software to increase the energy yield from a solar PV system.</p>

<p>
In 2007, the Minnesota state legislature passed one of the most ambitious Renewable Energy Standards. The bill, dubbed The Next Generation Energy Act, mandates 25 percent of the state’s electricity come from renewable sources by 2025.</p>

<p>
Experts anticipate solar energy generation to grow 15-fold in 2016. Many projects are in development or already in construction, such as rooftop panel installations, community solar and utility-scale projects.</p>
