The Chinese state-owned solar maker has actually sued versus its Korean rival connecting to REC's split-cell and also junction box innovation.

5 screening labs led by Germany's Fraunhofer ISE have actually started a 'round robin' project to check the impacts of ultraviolet light on polymer backsheet products. Preliminary outcomes show a course to exact increased screening of backsheet UV security over module life times of 20 years-plus.

Researchers in the U.S. and also South Korea have actually recognized what could be a brand-new course to high-efficiency perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells. With design adversely billed bits in the passivation layer, the team made a tandem cell with 26.7% performance. With more tweaks to the silicon layer they anticipate to be able to exceed 30%.

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.

As solar cells end up being a lot more clear, you might currently include clear panels of solar cells on home windows of structures and also digital tools to produce electrical energy. Moreover, in including versatility to this, its item variety will certainly be also increased to guarantee the future mobile applications for wearable tools.

South Korean researchers have actually created 2 perovskite solar cells based upon a polymer made with pepper mint oil as well as walnut fragrance preservative, specifically. The brand-new dopant‐free opening transportation polymer is stated to allow longer resilience of the tools as well as to stop lead-leakage.

South Korean scientists have actually established a crossbreed tandem solar battery based upon quantum dots as well as natural mass heterojunction (BHJ) photoactive products. If they proceed to decrease power losses in the quantum dot cell and also improve near-infrared absorption, they declare that the cell might get to an effectiveness price of around 15%.

South Korean solar-grade polysilicon manufacturer, Hanwha Solutions is to leave business by the end of 2020, adhering to OCI's choice to shutter polysilicon plants in the nation.

Since of the break out, WoodMac experts claim the quantity of brand-new battery production capability included in the country this year might drop by as much as 10%. With Tesla's Shanghai gigafactory influenced by the prolonged new-year-holiday closure, the expert warned of possible supply scarcities for Australia as well as the U.S. as well as U.K.

Q Cells, A South Korea Company has already supplied about 299.77 kWp to the United Kingdom’s headquarters. The company installed a solar system consisting of 967 modules in 7 days. The modules were supplied to Solar Perfect because it lacked adequate storage spaces.

A new report from the International Renewable Energy Agency released this week explains how the sun looks set to shine on solar energy systems over the coming decades, with a wealth of advancements and dropping prices that could boost adoption.

The South Korean capital has unveiled a plan to deploy rooftop PV on a million homes and all public buildings. The new initiative is designed to bring the city’s cumulative installed solar capacity to around 1 GW by the end of 2022.

The Ministry of National Defense of South Korea assures that a major floating PV generator that is planned to be located in the Saemangeum tidal flat will give no impact on military flight and landing operations of United States military forces based nearby.

Scientists at South Korea’s Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology have set a new efficiency record of 11.4% for a cell based on a copper zinc tin sulfide thin film applied to a flexible substrate.

Researchers from the Ulsan Institute of Science and Technology have demonstrated a new method of fabricating perovskite-on-silicon tandem devices, using a transparent conductive adhesive to combine the two cells. The scientists have developed devices with demonstrated efficiencies of 19.4%, and propose strategies to bring that above 24% using existing technology.
