GIS Owners in California Must Comply With SF6 Regulation

Latham's Clean Energy Law Report

Since the initial use of SF6 in the 1950s, SF6-containing circuit breakers, transformers, switches, fuses, and other equipment have been used regularly because SF6 is non-flammable, non-corrosive, non-toxic, and an effective arc suppressant, which allows SF6 equipment to have a small footprint and be relatively low maintenance.

circuit breaker ? The first part of the charging pathway to consider while attempting to minimizing loses—and one which is entirely under the control of the EV owner—is the size of the wire from the circuit breaker in the load center (aka the breaker box) to either the receptacle which an EVSE plugs into, or to a hard-wired EVSE.

Are Women Breaking the Solar Glass Ceiling?

Women in Cleantech and Sustainability

Only one showed up for a coding test. So, what’s the buzz? In case you’re new to this one, here’s a quick rundown on the issue, which I’ve covered before : Women make up only about 20% of the solar workforce. Companies with more women, and more diversity in general, do better. But he’s feeling frustrated. He wanted to know what he could do.
