EcoWatch - When smoke from the Canada wildfires drifted into the Eastern and Midwestern U.S. last week, creating haze and an otherworldly orange glow, it not only diminished air quality, but it reduced solar power generation by making it more difficult for solar panels to absorb sunlight. Last week, the electricity coming from New England solar farms was 56 percent less during peak times than the previous week, according to Bloomberg. In the mid-Atlantic and Midwest, solar power generation was reduced by a quarter.
