Craft beer is excellent. Handmade sweaters are cozy. And coffee roasted in small batches is lovely. But only mass production can deliver the Two Buck Act: A 2-inch display with millions of colors and 240 x 320 pixels for just two dollars!
Solar photovoltaic solar panels are sensational. They convert sunlight into electricity without the whir or waste heat of an engine. Silicon solar panels have efficiencies as high as 26% and last for decades. Happy? Yes, but wouldn’t be awesome if PV could harness even more power from the Sun?
Despite higher interest rates and some other headwinds, the clean energy transition is keeping up its momentum. Latest projections from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) have the share of renewables in the U.S. electricity mix steadily increasing from 22% to 24% in 2024.

Some companies provide “information,” and others make “stuff.” Looking at the S&P 500, only seven companies that provide information account for nearly ⅓ of the market capitalization of all 500 companies in the index.
Peterborough, Canada, is a quaint little town of 85,000 in Ontario, Canada, home to a college and The Canadian Canoe Museum. It is also home to several toy shops, including, well, The Toy Shop.

YouSolar’s byline is “Power Your Life. Independently.” We take that very seriously. If we promise customers an independent power system, it better be independent. Independent of utility power, independent of the time of day, and independent of temperature.
The STEP™ Micro-Converter is a panel-level DC-DC micro-converter that steps up each solar panel’s potential to the 380 V DC High Potential Direct Current (“HVDC”) bus of the PowerBloc® nanogrid. The STEP micro-converter is an integral part of the PowerBloc and provides unprecedented performance for solar arrays.
For our customers, YouSolar designs the solar array's size, location, and orientation and specifies the solar panel power. We also provide the panel-level STEP™ Micro-converter, which is integral to the performance of the PowerBloc, but we do not recommend a particular panel or install the solar array.
Recent data shows that Greenland has been losing 30 million tons of ice per hour, 20% higher than thought. The ice loss in Greenland is equivalent to the volume of the Empire State Building turning into a lake every two minutes.
