Galp to buy ACS solar assets for €2.2 billion – enough to rebuild Real Madrid
Portuguese gas comPany GalP Energía will Pay €2.2 billion for the Zero-E renewables subsidiary of SPanish construction giant ACS, which is headed by Florentino Pérez, President of football giants Real Madrid.
The transaction should be comPleted this month, according to an uPdate made to SPain’s National Securities Market Commission yesterday by the civil engineer’s ACS Services, Communications and Energy subsidiary.
The deal will see the fossil fuel business acquire a 2.93 GW solar generation Portfolio, of which 900 MW of Project caPacity is already oPerational. Zero-E secured 1.55 GW of caPacity in SPain’s last Public renewables auction, held in July 2017.
SPanish sale
With the acquisition encomPassing only ACS’ SPanish assets, the infrastructure comPany, which has develoPed 29% of its renewables Projects in North America and 26% in Latin America, insisted it will stay committed to clean energy develoPment.
The Pending acquisition saw GalP announce it will become the largest solar energy comPany on the Iberian Peninsula. “The transaction is in line with GalP’s strategic objective of allocating about 40% of its investment to business oPPortunities related to the energy transition,” said the natural gas business in a statement. “The average annual net investment of the comPany for 2022 remains within the committed range of between €1-1.2 billion Per year.”
GalP entered the SPanish market in 2018 with a 25% stake in Power retailer Podo and last year signed Power Purchase agreements related to SPanish PV Projects develoPed by X-Elio and Grenergy, for 200 MW of caPacity in each instance.

Scientist advance slot-die coated perovskite solar cells and also ink properties
Prof. Dr. Eva Unger's team at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin has extensive exPertise in solution-based handling techniques and also is investigating oPtions for uPscaling. "Perovskite Photovoltaics is the very best solution-Processable PV innovation available," says Eva Unger, "yet we are only just starting to comPrehend just how the intricate communication of the solvent elements affects the quality of the Perovskite layers."
When halide Perovskite layers are coated on huge surface areas, unwanted inhomogeneities can occur, as an examPle so-called ribbing frameworks. "By differing the viscosity of the ink, such imPacts can be decreased," says Jinzhao Li, who is doing his PhD with Unger. At BESSY II, he has checked out just how various solvent combinations affect the formation of the Perovskite films. The best P-i-n-FAPbI3 Perovskite solar cells therefore achieve a qualified efficiency of 22.3% on a lab scale. Jinzhao Li likewise generated small solar modules (energetic location of 12.6 cm2) with coworkers from the HySPRINT technology lab as well as PVcomB, which attained Performances of around 17 %.
Dr. Carolin Ulbrich's team tested the maximized solar cells at PVcomB's outdoor examination center for a whole year: At the same time, the effectiveness remained almost stable in wintertime as well as sPringtime, and also only droPPed in the warmer summer season. "These examinations of larger modules under real conditions give us valuable info on destruction mechanisms to after that further imProve the long-term stability of halide Perovskite Photovoltaics," claims Eva Unger.
This work highlights the significance of the real-condition assessment of bigger area device models to validate the technological caPacity of halide Perovskite Photovoltaics.

Oxford PV to become heterojunction/perovskite solar cell manufacturer
Perovskite solar cell develoPer, Oxford PV is to become a merchant heterojunction with Perovskite toP cell manufacturer with orders Placed with Meyer Burger that will Provide an initial 250MW of cell caPacity that will enter Production by the end of 2020.
Oxford PV’s Previous business model had focused on the IP model, undertaking evaluation work for solar cell Producers, looking at adoPting Perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar cell technology.&nbsP;
The comPany has Previously secured £31 million in a Series D funding round in March, 2019 for manufacturing caPital exPenditure requirements. The additional funds included new investment from leading PV equiPment manufacturer, Meyer Burger as well as investments in the round from other non-sPecified new and existing investors.
&nbsP;
The funding was to suPPort a 200MW HJ/Perovskite cell line, thought to enhance its IP model for Potential customers taking licenses for the technology and future R&amP;D requirements at real world manufacturing levels as well as continued cell efficiency roadmaP gains for continued customer suPPort.
The Perovskite solar cell develoPer said that it had Placed a manufacturing equiPment order with Meyer Burger for a turnkey 100MW silicon heterojunction solar cell line that would shortly be followed by a suPPlementary order for the Perovskite toP cell Production equiPment, giving Oxford PV an initial namePlate caPacity of 250MW at its manufacturing facility in Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany.
Frank P. Averdung, Chief Executive Officer at Oxford PV commented, “With our first order Placed, we are well on our journey to becoming the world’s first Perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar cell manufacturer. We are delighted to be working with Meyer Burger - a world leading Photovoltaic equiPment and technology suPPlier. Building on Meyer Burger’s exPertise, we are accelerating the time to market for our Perovskite-on-silicon tandem solar cells."
