Energy company Lausitz Energie Bergbau AG (LEAG) has actually gotten authorization to develop a 24.8-MWp solar park in eastern Germany's Upper Lusatia region and also expects to damage the ground on the project in September.

Solar developer has actually set up a base and also local team in Berlin

Home solar storage space systems are coming to be progressively preferred in Germany with the variety of new installments rising 52% in 2022, according to data published by the nation's solar energy association BSW Solar.

German wind and also solar park driver Encavis AG (ETR: CAP) stated today it has achieved the construction-ready phase at a 105-MW subsidy-free solar park project in northern Germany's Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania state.

For the month of January, 56,620 photovoltaic systems with an overall capacity of 780.7 megawatts (MW) were freshly reported to the German Federal Network Agency (BNetzA), of which 760.4 MW were supported by the Renewable Energy Law (EEG) and 20.4 MW were unsubsidized systems.

Nano-textured surface areas are an interesting strategy for maximizing the optical qualities for monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. Researchers from Germany's Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) have actually checked out the growth of different textures of silicon surface areas making use of different industrial additives as well as their efficiency in silicon heterojunction (SHJ) and also SHJ-- perovskite tandem solar cells.

The development of solar energy in Germany proceeded at a strong pace at the start of 2023 with 780 MW of new systems linked to the grid but the recently set up onshore wind capacity went down sharply to 85.8 MW in January.

Around 87 percent of German imports for photovoltaic or pv systems came from individuals's Republic of China in 2022.

Federal Network Agency approved 1,441 MW of onshore wind as well as 195MW of solar capacity

German wind and also solar park operator Encavis AG (ETR: CAP) has effectively positioned a syndicated green promissory note bond worth EUR 210 million (USD 223.3 m) to back its ambition to add more than 500 MW of generation capacity to its portfolio this year.

Sono Motors has abandoned its plans to produce the electric car "Sion" with solar cells integrated into the body. The company will now pivot to retrofitting and integrating its solar technology onto third party vehicles, a move that is far less capital-intensive.

Scientists from the University of Konstanz in Germany, Quaid-i-Azam University and Kohsar University Murree in Pakistan and Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China have actually fabricated an inverted perovskite solar cell with a passivation technique utilizing a mixed solvent vapor annealing technique based on ethylenediamine (EDA).

The 17 development-stage projects mark the firm's initial PV growth pipe procurement in the nation

Dresden, Germany-based Solarwatt GmbH is celebrating its 30th anniversary, making it one of the globe's earliest manufacturers of solar modules.

Researchers from Australia and Germany set a new record with a 30.3% efficient perovskite and silicon tandem solar cell, funding by ARENA. Stay up to date with the latest Solar Energy news.
