Four years after the expiry of environment-friendly certificates for PV systems up to 10 kW, the authorities in Belgium's Flanders region intend to support solar once again-- yet this time in the kind or rebates. A brand-new scheme will likely go into force in 2021, with as much as EUR1,500 to be granted per PV system.

The Dutch PV system company's MHI panels include multi-busbar modern technology and also 120 half-cut, monocrystalline cells. The collection has a power outcome of 355-375 W as well as efficiency of 19.2-20.3%.

Enphase Energy has teamed-up with Sunlogics, a full-service property solar installer that supplies customized solar services to consumers in Belgium.

The module titan today introduced it will certainly give away a million things of individual safety devices to the Asian as well as european nations presently fighting the spread of the unique coronavirus.

Researchers at TU Dresden and also Hasselt University in Belgium examined the physical reasons that restrict the performance of unique solar cells based upon natural molecular products. Presently, the voltage of such cells is still also reduced-- one factor for their still fairly reduced effectiveness.

A research led by Bern University of Applied Sciences is relocating right into the presentation stage, with projects in Germany, Switzerland, and also Belgium. With companions from throughout Europe, the Swiss scientists are creating designs for just how solar components and also batteries from electrical cars and trucks can still be made use of in a lasting method after their lifecycle has actually finished.

An energy storage system made up of 'second life' batteries formerly used in Renault's electrical automobile (EV) has been deployed for Umicore, an international materials innovation company headquartered in Belgium.

With its app already present in Belgium and the Netherlands, start-up Jedlix is introducing smart charging in France. The solution enables Tesla drivers to optimize their charging strategy.

Although the International Energy Agency’s latest renewables report forecasts impressive solar growth there is still a nagging feeling it has produced conservative estimates and the emphasis on sharing costs with grid operators is predictable.
