While there are perhaps thousands of websites providing information about solar and other renewable energy solutions, here are a few that you may find especially useful:

 

Sunpluggers.com - "Sunpluggers.com provides solar consumers with news and information that they gather and report independently. They are professional journalists with decades of experience. Some of them are longtime solar owners themselves, and they consider other owners and future owners to be sunpluggers like them." (from the Sunpluggers website).

 

Solaripedia.com - This site is an aggregator of news from many other sources. You can also subscribe to it. "Solaripedia is strictly an online resource to keep our footprint as low as possible. We will attempt to answer online inquiries, however. We will also consider adding new resources if you care to send them to us. Solaripedia is a product of Global Swarming Limited Liability Corporation in Washington State, USA, formally established in 2008 by Robin Rogers."
