Jaison R. Abel and Richard Deitz In our last post, we showed that the economic benefits of a college degree still far outweigh the costs for the typical graduate, with a healthy and consistent return of 12 to 13 percent over the past few decades.

Since then, solar generation capacity has grown incredibly quickly. By some metrics, solar PV has been deploy

In a nutshell: Most commercial buildings with climate control needs utilize chillers during the warm months. These large systems cool down water and pump it throughout a building to regulate temperatures. This works well enough when electricity costs are low but when they spike during peak usage hours, operators end up paying a lot more out of pocket. Now, building managers across the country have turned to ice to help cut electricity cost. When electricity costs are low, vats of water are froz
