Renewable Energy Capacity Projected to Show Strong Growth

NEW YORK, October 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

According to a recent research provided by the International Energy Agency (IEA), wind and solar capacity is ten-fold what it was a decade ago. The momentum behind renewable energy sources is strong. The growth has sparked innovation, cost reductions and job creation. For example, recent data shows that solar PV projects are offering impressively low prices, as low as 3 cents/kWh, in places where the resources are abundant and low-cost financing is available. The report indicates that renewables accounted for almost two-thirds of net new power capacity around the world last year, with almost 165 gigawatts (GW) coming online and a strong solar PV market. By 2022, renewable electricity capacity is projected to increase by 43%. Solar Integrated Roofing Corporation (OTC: SIRC), SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. (OTC: WNDW), Sauer Energy Inc. (OTC: SENY), SPI Energy Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: SPI), Sunworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: SUNW)

"We see renewables growing by about 1,000 GW by 2022, which equals about half of the current global capacity in coal power, which took 80 years to build," said Dr Fatih Birol, the executive director of the IEA. "What we are witnessing is the birth of a new era in solar PV. We expect that solar PV capacity growth will be higher than any other renewable technology through 2022." Renewable energy sources include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass and more.

Solar Integrated Roofing Corporation (OTC: SIRC) announced yesterday that, "they have entered into an agreement with a national big box store to be the provider for all of their residential roofing contracts.

"This is a huge opportunity for us, a real game-changer," said CEO Dave Massey. "This is a major home improvement chain, a Fortune 500 company with 1,840 stores in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. It was our track record of customer service that prompted them to close the deal with us and we couldn't be prouder of that. We're going to become their installer for their roofing contracts. We are also negotiating with them to help launch their solar program as well."

Sales of the national home improvement chain topped $15 billion in fiscal 2017.
