Kukho idolophu entsha ye-1 ye-solar-powered e-US, kunye ne-San Diego endaweni ye-Los Angeles njengesixeko esiphezulu sokufakelwa kwamandla elanga e-PV ekupheleni kwe-2016, ngokutsho kwengxelo entsha evela kwi-Environment America kunye neQela le-Frontier.
Amandla elanga ase-US akhule ngesantya sokwephula irekhodi kulo nyaka uphelileyo, kwaye ingxelo ithi izixeko ezikhulu zelizwe zidlale indima ephambili kuguqulo lwamandla acocekileyo kwaye zime ukuze zivune iinzuzo ezinkulu kumandla elanga. Njengamaziko oluntu, izixeko ziyimithombo emikhulu yemfuno yombane, kwaye nezigidi zamaphahla ophahla alungele iiphaneli zelanga, zinamandla okuba yimithombo ephambili yamandla acocekileyo ngokunjalo.
Ingxelo, enesihloko esithi "Izixeko eziKhanyayo: IiPolisi zeNdawo eziSmart ziwandisa njani amandla eSolar eMelika," utshilo uSan Diego wagqitha eLos Angeles, eyayiyinkokeli yesizwe kwiminyaka emithathu edlulileyo. Ngokucacileyo, i-Honolulu yavuka ukusuka kwindawo yesithandathu ekupheleni kwe-2015 ukuya kwindawo yesithathu ekupheleni kwe-2016. I-San Jose kunye ne-Phoenix bajikeleza iindawo ezihlanu eziphezulu kwi-PV efakwe.
Ekupheleni kwe-2016, izixeko eziphezulu ze-20 - ezimele nje i-0.1% yendawo yomhlaba yase-US - ibalwa kwi-5% ye-PV ye-solar yase-US. Ingxelo ithi ezi zixeko ze-20 ziphantse zibe ne-2 GW yomthamo we-PV yelanga - phantse amandla amaninzi elanga njengoko ilizwe lonke lifakile ekupheleni kwe-2010.
"I-San Diego ibeka umgangatho wezinye izixeko kwilizwe lonke xa kuziwa ekukhuseleni okusingqongileyo kunye nokudala ikamva elicocekileyo," utshilo uSodolophu waseSan Diego uKevin Faulconer kwingxelo yeendaba. "Olu luhlu lutsha lububungqina kubahlali abaninzi baseSan Diego kunye namashishini asebenzisa izixhobo zethu zendalo njengoko simatsha sisiya kwiinjongo zethu zokusebenzisa amandla ahlaziyekayo eepesenti ezili-100 kuso sonke isixeko."
Ingxelo iphinda idibanise into ebizwa ngokuba yi "Solar Stars" - izixeko zase-US ezine-50 okanye ngaphezulu kwee-watts ezifakwe amandla e-solar PV ngomntu ngamnye. Ekupheleni kwe-2016, izixeko ze-17 zifikelele kwimo yeSolar Star, ephuma kwisibhozo kuphela kwi-2014.
Ngokwengxelo, i-Honolulu, iSan Diego, iSan Jose, i-Indianapolis kunye ne-Albuquerque yayizezona zixeko zintlanu ziphezulu ze-2016 yokufakwa kwamandla elanga e-PV ngomntu ngamnye. Ngokucacileyo, i-Albuquerque iphakame kwiNombolo ye-5 kwi-2016 emva kokuba ibekwe kwindawo ye-16 kwi-2013. Ingxelo ibonisa ukuba inani leedolophu ezincinci zibekwe kwi-20 ephezulu kwi-solar efakwe kwi-capita nganye, kuquka i-Burlington, i-Vt.; ENew Orleans; kunye neNewark, NJ
Izixeko eziphambili zelanga zase-US zezo zamkele imigaqo-nkqubo yoluntu eyomeleleyo ye-pro-solar okanye ezibekwe ngaphakathi kumazwe akwenzileyo oko, kwaye uphando luthi iziphumo zalo zeza phakathi kolawulo lukaTrump lokuhlehla kwemigaqo-nkqubo yomanyano yexesha lika-Obama ukuba isebenze ngotshintsho lwemozulu kwaye ikhuthaze. umoya ovuselelekayo.
Nangona kunjalo, le ngxelo iphawula ukuba nezixeko ezibone impumelelo enkulu yelanga zisenezixa ezikhulu zamandla elanga angasetyenziswanga. Ngokomzekelo, ingxelo ithi iSan Diego iphuhlise ngaphantsi kwe-14% yesakhono sayo sobugcisa samandla elanga kwizakhiwo ezincinci.
Ukuthatha ithuba lelizwe elinamandla elanga kunye nokuhambisa i-US kuqoqosho oluxhaswe ngamandla avuselelekayo, isixeko, urhulumente kunye noorhulumente bomdibaniso kufuneka bamkele uthotho lwemigaqo-nkqubo ye-solar, ngokutsho kophononongo.
"Ngokusebenzisa amandla elanga kwizixeko kulo lonke ilizwe, sinokunciphisa ukungcola kunye nokuphucula impilo yoluntu kubantu baseMelika bemihla ngemihla," kusho uBret Fanshaw kunye ne-Environment America Research and Policy Centre. "Ukufezekisa ezi zibonelelo, iinkokeli zedolophu kufuneka ziqhubeke nokwamkela umbono omkhulu welanga kuphahla lwezindlu kwiindawo abahlala kuzo."
"Izixeko ziyaqaphela ukuba amandla acocekileyo, asekhaya kunye afikelelekayo anengqiqo," wongeza uAbi Bradford kunye neQela leFrontier. "Kunyaka wesine ilandelelana, uphando lwethu lubonisa ukuba oku kwenzeka, kungekhona kwizixeko ezinelanga kakhulu, kodwa nakwezo zinemigaqo-nkqubo ehlakaniphile yokuxhasa olu tshintsho."
Kwingxelo ebhengeza le ngxelo, oosodolophu belizwe jikelele bancome iinzame zedolophu zabo zokwamkela umbane welanga.
"I-solar kumawaka ezindlu kunye nezakhiwo zikarhulumente zinceda i-Honolulu ifikelele kwiinjongo zethu zamandla azinzileyo," kusho uSodolophu uKirk Caldwell waseHonolulu, obeka i-No. “Ukuthumela imali phesheya kweelwandle ukuze kuthunyelwe ioli namalahle kwisiqithi sethu esigqatswa lilanga unyaka wonke akusenangqiqo.”
"Ndiyazingca ukubona i-Indianapolis ikhokela isizwe njengesixeko esikwindawo yesine kumandla elanga kumntu ngamnye, kwaye sizimisele ukuqhubeka nobunkokeli bethu ngokulungelelanisa iinkqubo zokuvumela kunye nokuphumeza iindlela ezintsha kunye ezintsha zokukhuthaza ukukhula kwamandla elanga," utshilo uSodolophu wase-Indianapolis. UJoe Hogsett. "Ukuqhubela phambili amandla elanga e-Indianapolis akuxhamli kuphela umoya kunye namanzi kunye nempilo yoluntu lwethu - kudala imivuzo ephezulu, imisebenzi yasekhaya kwaye ivuselela uphuhliso loqoqosho. Ndijonge phambili ekuboneni ngakumbi ilanga lifakwe kuphahla lwezindlu kulo lonke elase-Indianapolis kulo nyaka, nakwixesha elizayo.”
"Isixeko saseLas Vegas kudala sikhokela ekuzinzeni, ukusuka ekukhuthazeni izakhiwo eziluhlaza kunye nokuphinda kusetyenziswe amandla elanga," kusho uSodolophu waseLas Vegas uCarolyn G. Goodman. "Ngo-2016, isixeko sifikelele usukelo lwaso lokuxhomekeka kwi-100 lepesenti kuphela kumandla ahlaziyekayo ukunika amandla izakhiwo zikarhulumente, izibane kunye nezixhobo."
“Uzinzo akumele kube lusukelo nje ephepheni; imele iphunyezwe,” watsho njalo uEthan Strimling, usodolophu wasePortland, eMaine. Yiyo loo nto kubaluleke kakhulu ukuba singaphuhlisi kuphela izicwangciso ezinokubakho, ezinolwazi nezinokulinganiswa zokunyusa amandla elanga, kodwa ukuzibophelela ekuphunyezweni kwazo.
