ERIC CLAPTON "MEANWHILE" (EPC Enterprises/Surfdog) 2024

electric blues/ adult pop

Against the background of news about Clapton's age-related health problems, many (including me, for example) we have already got used to the idea that the living god is preparing to retire. The more surprising is the appearance of a new product, which Eric even decided to release a few months earlier than planned. The content is as predictable as possible, but therefore does not lose its charm: This is old-fashioned companionable blues mixed with vintage covers like "Moon River" (featuring the late Jeff Beck). If it turns out to be a farewell, it will remain a pleasant memory.

COLDPLAY "MOON MUSIC" (Parlophone) 2024

pop rock, lyrical pop

Moon Music": the album demonstrates what this music would be like if it didn't jump out of your pants to get on the radio. Just like that: sincere, soft and even a little vulnerable.

Rufus Du Sol – «Inhale / Exhale»11.10.2024

Inhale/Exhale is the fifth album by the Grammy–winning Australian electronic band Rufus Du Sol. This time they touched on the eternal themes of "romance, heartbreak, euphoria and despair." This is also a new stage in the band's career: now they strive to "just enjoy the process" and "create in the moment." Three singles "Inhale / Exhale" entered the top 40 of the Billboard dance/electronic songs chart: "Music Is Better", "Lately" and "Break My Love".

Sam Abbo - Add To The Noise (2024)

alternative | freak-folk | avant-honky-tonk I singer songwriter | uk

Sam has created several projects on the Brighton experimental scene. some even got to the BBC ;)) Abbo owns a piano, guitars of all stripes, including a Clarophone (Clarophone Banjo), from here it grew-the idea to play his own honky tonk adventure broke through;)) it turned out to be very thoughtful even;))

VanWyck - Dust Chaser (2024)

Hello there. let's try to get into a rut... meanwhile, VanVik is already on the air;))

Joose Keskitalo & The Mystic Revelation of Teppo Repo - Tähdet palaavat paikoilleen (2024)

"When the stars return to their places,

The original shadows of delusion will disappear

And they will begin to gain wisdom."

gloomy Sami romantics return the stars to their places, and when they come into contact with the music of this miraculous creative symbiosis, sensitive and sensitive listeners have an irresistible desire to reach the heavenly bodies together;)) turn it on, enjoy, stretch;))

P.s..And the music is beautiful! ... and they take care of the silence)

DAWN RICHARD AND SPENCER ZAHN "QUIET IN A WORLD FULL OF NOISE" (Merge) 2024

ambient pop, pop soul

Soul vocalist Dawn Richard has never been content with pure style. Instead, she uses R&B as a starting point to find some new intonations, techniques, and sound. In 2022, this led her to work with pianist Spencer Zahn. Their first album together, "Pigs", seemed to connect two worlds: chamber jazz and art soul. The sequel goes even further: now it's practically ambient based on frozen R&B, the music of silver snowflakes. Insinuating and very beautiful.

Seventeen – "Spill the Feelings" on October 14th

The return of Seventeen is one of the main k-pop groups of our time. Their previous releases "FML" (2023) and "Seventh Heaven" (2023) set records for millions of pre-orders. There is no doubt that "Spill the Feelings" will be among the top bestsellers of 2024. Seventeen's new album promises to showcase the band's creative evolution and show their individual sides. And also to tell a fascinating story that is close to everyone.

The album "Tension" (2023) became, perhaps, the most successful in the late discography of Kylie Minogue. The hit "Padam Padam" not only returned the 55-year-old singer to the chart, but also took second place in her career"The Grammys." "Tension II" is the sequel to "Tension", its "high-energy, high-octane version". In general, the legend of pop music has prepared another release with dance hits of the highest standard. It featured Sia, Bibi Rexa, Tove Lu, Diplo and The Blessed Madonna.

Pixies – «The Night the Zombies Came»25.10.2024

In 2024, bassist Paz Lenshantin left Pixies and was replaced by Emma Richardson. How well she knows the instrument can be assessed on the band's new album "The Night the Zombies Came". Pixies frontman Black Francis described it as "fragments connected and juxtaposed with other fragments in other songs." According to Francis, the album is a collection of tracks reminiscent of a movie. The producer of the material was Tom Dalgety, who has been working closely with Pixies for several years now

The authors of the hit "Pompeii" Bastille present an unusual project: "&" are not just songs, but stories about interesting people. In "Eve & Paradise Lost" Bastille sings about the biblical Eve, and in "Leonard & Marianne" – about Leonard Cohen and his muse Marianne Ihlen. Maybe the band's new tracks don't sound as hit as their early work, but it's interesting to listen to them and read the lyrics. Frontman Dan Smith certainly has a talent for storytelling.

Energy Performance Certificates in Portugal What You Need to Know

In recent years, energy efficiency has become a major focus in the real estate market worldwide. In Portugal, this concern is addressed through Energy Performance Certificates in Portugal, which are required for all properties being sold or rented. Whether you’re buying, selling, or renting a property in Portugal, understanding EPCs is crucial for making informed decisions. In this blog post, we’ll explore what an EPC is, why it’s important, and how to obtain one in Portugal.

What is an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)?

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document that assesses the energy efficiency of a property. It provides a rating from A to F, with A being the most energy-efficient and F being the least. The certificate evaluates factors such as insulation, heating and cooling systems, lighting, and other energy-related features within the property.

In Portugal, an EPC is required by law for all buildings that are being sold, rented, or constructed. It helps potential buyers or tenants understand the energy consumption of a property, which can influence decisions on future costs for heating, cooling, and electricity.

Why is an EPC Important in Portugal?

There are several reasons why an EPC is important in Portugal, both for property buyers and sellers:

Energy Efficiency Awareness: An EPC provides insight into the energy performance of a property. This is important for buyers and renters who are concerned about long-term utility costs. Properties with higher energy efficiency ratings (A or B) are likely to have lower running costs, making them more attractive to potential buyers or tenants.

Environmental Impact: Portugal is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and promoting sustainability. By encouraging the use of energy-efficient buildings, the country is contributing to its environmental goals. An EPC can help both property owners and potential buyers or tenants make more eco-friendly choices.

Legal Requirement: In Portugal, an EPC is a legal requirement for any property transaction. If you’re selling or renting out a property, you cannot finalize the sale or rental agreement without an EPC. Failure to comply with this regulation can result in fines.

Marketability: Properties with higher EPC ratings tend to be more desirable in the market. A property with an A or B rating is likely to be more attractive to environmentally-conscious buyers and can increase the property’s value. This is particularly important in a competitive market like Portugal’s real estate sector.

How to Obtain an EPC in Portugal

Obtaining an Energy Performance Certificate in Portugal is a straightforward process, but it requires professional evaluation by a certified technician. Here’s how to go about it:

Hire a Certified Energy Auditor: To get an EPC, you’ll need to hire a certified energy auditor who will assess your property’s energy efficiency. These professionals are authorized by the Portuguese government to perform the necessary inspections and evaluations.

Inspection and Evaluation: The energy auditor will inspect various aspects of your property, including insulation, windows, heating systems, air conditioning, and the overall energy consumption. They may also consider the property’s location, orientation, and exposure to sunlight.

Issuance of the EPC: After the evaluation, the energy auditor will provide a detailed report, including the energy performance rating. The certificate will be valid for 10 years, and you can use it for property sales, rentals, or renewals.

Cost: The cost of obtaining an EPC in Portugal varies depending on the size and complexity of the property. On average, the cost can range from €100 to €300. However, this is a small price to pay to ensure compliance with the law and increase the value of your property.

Conclusion

Energy Performance Certificates are an essential part of the property market in Portugal. Whether you are buying, selling, or renting a property, having an EPC helps you make informed decisions about energy efficiency, potential running costs, and environmental impact. It also ensures that you comply with legal requirements and can make your property more marketable.

At Portugal Investment Properties, we understand the importance of energy efficiency and sustainability in the real estate market. If you’re looking for properties with excellent energy ratings or need assistance with obtaining an EPC, our team is here to help.

Spiders ‘smell’ with their legs – new research

See on Scoop.it - EntomoNews

As spiders do not have antennae as insects, it’s long been a mystery how they can smell.

------

NDÉ

Traduction

Les araignées ont toujours vécu aux côtés de l'homme. Il est donc surprenant de constater tout ce que nous ignorons encore à leur sujet. L'un des mystères les plus anciens concerne la manière dont les araignées détectent les odeurs. Aujourd'hui, nos dernières recherches ont enfin percé le secret.

Dans une étude publiée dans la revue Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, nous avons démontré que les araignées mâles utilisent des poils olfactifs appelés sensilles à pores ("wall-pores sensilla" en anglais) sur leurs pattes comme un « nez » pour détecter les phéromones sexuelles émises par les araignées femelles.

Notre découverte met fin à une décennie de recherche de ces sensilles insaisissables, qui ont maintenant été identifiées et cartographiées. Elle ouvre également la voie à des études approfondies sur le mécanisme qui sous-tend l'olfaction des araignées.

Bien que les araignées - qui évoluent depuis environ 400 millions d'années - soient réputées pour leur sens des vibrations et certaines, comme les araignées sauteuses, pour leur excellente vision, on sait étonnamment peu de choses sur leur sens de l'odorat. De nombreux éléments ont montré que les araignées peuvent détecter des odeurs telles que les phéromones sexuelles, mais deux grandes questions étaient restées sans réponse.

Premièrement, les araignées n'ayant pas d'antennes comme les insectes, quel était leur principal organe olfactif ? Deuxièmement, des études antérieures avaient suggéré que les araignées n'avaient pas de sensilles, ces structures spécialisées comme celles sur lesquelles les insectes s'appuient pour sentir. Sans ces sensilles, comment les araignées pouvaient-elles détecter les odeurs ?

Notre étude a permis de résoudre ces questions sans réponse. Nous avons découvert des sensilles multi-pores sur les pattes ambulatoires des argiopes-frelons mâles (Argiope bruennichi) et démontré qu'elles peuvent les utiliser pour détecter les phéromones sexuelles en suspension dans l'air avec une grande sensibilité.

Nous avons montré que ces sensilles à multiples pores latéraux ne sont pas propres aux argiopes-frelons, mais qu'elles sont répandues dans tout l'arbre taxonomique des araignées.

What Is a Solar EPC Company and How Can They Help Your Business Go Solar?

As the world shifts towards more sustainable energy sources, businesses are increasingly looking to solar energy to reduce their carbon footprint and energy costs. However, navigating the process of adopting solar power can be complex, especially for larger commercial installations. This is where a Solar EPC Company comes in.

An EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) company specializes in managing the entire lifecycle of a solar energy project, from the initial design and engineering phase to the procurement of materials and the final installation. In simple terms, a Solar EPC company is your one-stop shop for everything related to a commercial solar installation.

In this blog, we’ll explore what a Solar EPC company does and how partnering with one can help your business make a smooth transition to solar energy.

1. What Is a Solar EPC Company?

A Solar EPC company is a contractor that handles the three critical phases of a solar energy project:

Engineering: This phase involves designing a solar system tailored to your specific energy needs. The engineering team conducts site assessments, analyzes energy usage patterns, and creates detailed designs and specifications for the system.

Procurement: In this phase, the EPC company acquires the necessary equipment and materials for the project, including solar panels, inverters, and racking systems. They manage the supply chain to ensure the right components are delivered on time.

Construction: The construction phase involves the installation of the solar system, including the mounting of panels, wiring, electrical connections, and system commissioning. The EPC company ensures that the installation is done correctly and safely, complying with local building codes and regulations.

By handling all aspects of the solar project, an EPC company simplifies the process for your business, ensuring that everything runs smoothly from start to finish.

2. How a Solar EPC Company Helps Your Business Go Solar

Adopting solar energy is a significant investment, and doing it right requires expertise, proper planning, and a well-executed strategy. Here’s how a Solar EPC company can help your business make a successful transition to solar:

a. Expert Consultation and Feasibility Assessment

Before your business invests in solar energy, you need a clear understanding of whether solar is a viable option for your specific situation. A Solar EPC company will conduct a feasibility study, evaluating your business’s energy consumption, roof space, geographic location, and local energy regulations to determine if solar is a good fit.

This feasibility study includes:

Energy Analysis: Understanding your business's energy usage patterns and determining the size of the solar system required to meet your energy needs.

Site Evaluation: Inspecting your building or property to ensure that it has the proper space and infrastructure for solar panels.

Financial Projections: Estimating potential savings on energy costs, return on investment (ROI), and payback period for the solar installation.

This initial consultation and assessment phase helps you make informed decisions about whether to proceed with solar and what type of system would best serve your needs.

b. Customized Solar System Design

Every business has unique energy needs, which is why a customized design is crucial. A Solar EPC company works with you to design a solar system that maximizes energy production while considering factors such as roof size, orientation, shading, and local climate conditions.

The design process includes:

Panel Placement and System Layout: Determining the optimal positioning of solar panels on your roof or property to capture the most sunlight.

Electrical System Integration: Ensuring that the solar system integrates seamlessly with your existing electrical infrastructure and meets your energy consumption needs.

Compliance with Local Codes and Regulations: Ensuring the system design complies with local building codes, zoning laws, and utility regulations.

A well-designed system maximizes efficiency, reduces energy costs, and enhances the long-term performance of your solar installation.

c. Handling Procurement and Supply Chain Management

Once the design is finalized, the Solar EPC company takes responsibility for procurement—the process of sourcing and purchasing all the necessary components for the solar installation. This includes solar panels, inverters, battery storage (if applicable), wiring, mounting hardware, and other system components.

The EPC company typically:

Negotiates Supplier Contracts: Secures competitive prices and ensures high-quality components that are suitable for your project’s specifications.

Manages Logistics: Coordinates the delivery of materials to your site, ensuring everything arrives on time and is ready for installation.

Quality Control: Inspects all components to verify that they meet industry standards and are free of defects before they are used in the installation process.

This streamlined procurement process saves your business time and effort, ensuring that all materials are delivered on time and meet quality standards.

d. Efficient Installation and Project Management

The construction phase is where the Solar EPC company truly shines. They handle the entire installation process, ensuring that everything is done according to the project timeline and that the system is set up correctly.

Key aspects of the construction phase include:

Installation of Panels and Equipment: The EPC company’s team of engineers, electricians, and installers will handle the physical installation of the solar panels, inverters, and other equipment.

Wiring and Electrical Integration: They will connect the solar panels to the electrical grid or to your building’s power system, ensuring safe and efficient energy flow.

System Testing and Commissioning: Once installation is complete, the EPC company tests the system to ensure it’s working correctly. This includes checking for any electrical faults, monitoring system performance, and making adjustments as needed.

A skilled Solar EPC company ensures that the installation is efficient, safe, and in compliance with all local codes and regulations.

e. Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance

After installation, your business will need to ensure that the solar system continues to perform at its optimal level. Many Solar EPC companies offer monitoring and maintenance services to help keep your solar system running efficiently over the long term.

Monitoring includes:

Real-Time Performance Tracking: Many Solar EPC companies provide access to online portals that allow you to track the real-time performance of your solar system, including energy production, savings, and system health.

Scheduled Maintenance: Some companies offer maintenance packages that include regular inspections, cleaning, and performance optimization to ensure that the system is running at peak efficiency.

Ongoing maintenance can extend the life of your solar system, ensuring that it continues to generate savings and meet your energy needs for years to come.

3. Financial Benefits of Working with a Solar EPC Company

One of the main reasons businesses choose to work with a Solar EPC company is the financial advantage. Going solar offers several key benefits:

Reduced Energy Costs: Once the system is installed, your business will start saving on energy bills by generating your own electricity, reducing reliance on the grid.

Return on Investment (ROI): Solar systems have a strong ROI, with savings on energy costs often offsetting the installation cost within a few years.

Tax Incentives and Rebates: Solar projects often qualify for tax credits, rebates, and other incentives that can significantly reduce the upfront costs.

Energy Independence: By generating your own electricity, your business becomes less vulnerable to energy price fluctuations and power outages.

A Solar EPC company can help you take full advantage of available financial incentives, ensuring that you maximize your savings and ROI.

4. Why Your Business Should Consider Going Solar with an EPC Company

Partnering with a Solar EPC company can provide your business with a comprehensive, hassle-free solution for adopting solar energy. From the initial consultation and system design to installation and ongoing maintenance, an EPC company handles every aspect of the process, saving you time and ensuring the success of your solar project.

By choosing a professional Solar EPC company, you benefit from:

Expertise and Experience: Solar EPC companies bring years of expertise and experience to the table, ensuring your solar system is designed, installed, and maintained to the highest standards.

End-to-End Project Management: With an EPC company, you have one point of contact throughout the entire project, making the process more efficient and less stressful.

Long-Term Savings: A well-designed and properly maintained solar system will deliver consistent savings on your energy bills for many years to come.

5. Conclusion

The transition to solar energy is an exciting step for any business looking to reduce energy costs and support sustainability. A Solar EPC company plays a vital role in making this transition seamless and cost-effective. From initial assessments to installation and ongoing support, an EPC company manages the complexities of the solar process, ensuring that your business reaps the full benefits of solar energy.

By partnering with a trusted Solar EPC provider, you can confidently make the switch to clean, renewable energy, all while improving your bottom line and reducing your environmental impact.

Energy Performance Certificates in Portugal: A Guide for Property Owners and Buyers

As sustainability continues to be a global priority, Portugal has joined other European countries in implementing measures to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. One of these measures is the Energy Performance Certificates in Portugal, which evaluates the energy efficiency of a property. In this blog post, we’ll explore what an EPC is, why it’s essential for property owners and buyers, and how to obtain one in Portugal.

What is an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)?

An Energy Performance Certificate (Certificado Energético) is a document that rates the energy efficiency of a building. The certificate includes a rating from A+ (most efficient) to F (least efficient), based on the building��s energy consumption, insulation, heating, cooling systems, and overall design. The higher the rating, the more energy-efficient the building is.

In Portugal, an EPC is required for all properties that are being sold, rented, or newly built. It provides valuable information about a property’s energy usage, helping potential buyers and renters make informed decisions.

Why is an EPC Important in Portugal?

An EPC plays an important role for both property owners and buyers in Portugal for several reasons:

Legal Requirement: It is mandatory for all properties being sold, rented, or newly constructed to have an EPC. Without it, the sale or rental process cannot proceed. This requirement ensures that properties comply with Portugal’s energy efficiency standards.

Transparency: The EPC provides a clear understanding of a property’s energy performance. Buyers and renters can assess the cost of utilities and the potential for improvements to enhance energy efficiency.

Sustainability: Portugal is committed to reducing its carbon footprint, and the EPC is part of this initiative. By encouraging energy-efficient buildings, the country aims to contribute to European Union goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Marketability: Properties with higher EPC ratings (A or B) are more attractive to buyers and renters who are conscious of their environmental impact. Energy-efficient homes are also associated with lower utility bills, making them more appealing in the long run.

How to Obtain an EPC in Portugal

Obtaining an EPC in Portugal is a straightforward process, though it does require the assistance of a certified energy auditor. Here are the steps to follow:

Step 1: Hire a certified energy auditor: To begin, property owners must contact a certified energy auditor who will assess the building’s energy consumption. These auditors are licensed professionals with the expertise to evaluate the building’s insulation, heating, and cooling systems, as well as its overall energy performance.

Step 2: Energy assessment: The auditor will perform a detailed evaluation of the property, which may involve inspecting the property’s structure, systems, and overall energy usage.

Step 3: Receive the EPC: After completing the assessment, the auditor will issue the Energy Performance Certificate. This document will include the building’s energy rating, a breakdown of its energy consumption, and recommendations for improving energy efficiency if needed.

Step 4: Register the EPC: The EPC will be registered with the official Portuguese energy database, and a digital version will be made available for access during property transactions.

Benefits of Having an EPC

Cost Savings: A more energy-efficient property will result in lower utility bills. With an EPC, property owners and buyers can identify areas where energy improvements can be made, leading to long-term savings.

Property Value: Properties with higher energy ratings (A, A+, or B) tend to have higher market value. These properties are seen as more sustainable and attractive to environmentally-conscious buyers, which can make them easier to sell or rent.

Environmental Impact: By improving a property’s energy efficiency, owners contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions, aligning with Portugal’s goals for environmental sustainability.

Informed Decision-Making: For potential buyers or renters, the EPC provides valuable insights into the energy performance of a property. This can influence purchasing or rental decisions, as energy efficiency is an important factor in long-term living costs.
