Enel toasts 86MW Spanish solar double
Enel Green Power Espana has completed construction and produced power at the La Vega 1 and 2 solar ranches in Spain which have an incorporated capability of 86MW. The projects, located near Malaga in the district of Teba, make up about 224,600 panels, 14 transformation centres, one substation and around 50km of below ground cabling. Enel claimed La Vega 1 as well as 2 expense EUR60m to build, with over 380 individuals entailed during construction. The plants will certainly create 171 gigawatt-hours of electricity a year. Enel Green Power head of building and construction Luca Capuozzo claimed: "The connection to the network of La Vega 1 and 2 is an excellent source of pride, not just for me, but also for the 300 colleagues who have made it possible in record time for the Malaga area." The firm is utilizing virtual reality to monitor these centers via clever glasses, which allow supervisors to from another location observe to the building works without the demand to literally get to the structure area. In addition, the modern technology includes an infrared video camera that offers a real-time sight of construction and implementation activities, Enel said. The firm currently runs over 7812MW of set up eco-friendly ability in Spain, that include 4711MW from traditional hydro, 2362MW from wind, 657MW from solar, 79MW from mini-hydro as well as 3MW from other sources.

Enel, French PV institute improve heterojunction cell efficiency by 0.37%.
Enel Green Power, the renewables device of Italian utility Enel, and also the National Solar Energy Institute (INES)-- an arm of the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA)-- have actually attained a performance of 25.0% for a heterojunction solar cell with an energetic surface of 213 cm2, based upon the M2 silicon wafer layout. With this new result, the two events have actually surpassed their previous record of 24.63%, reached last February. The results, licensed by the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), remain in line with the techbroadmap developed in collaboration between Enel Green Power and also CEA. In action to pv magazine's request for more information, a CEA speaker stated it is adhering to the advancement roadmap "by constantly improving the dishes that are carried out on our industrial pilot line." The spokesperson added that "the equipment used is industrial, an assurance of maturity," however did not give any additional information. INES and Enel Green Power have claimed that they will certainly provide their advancements at the next EU PVSEC trade fair in September. In February, Enel Green Power claimed the bifacial cell's front-side effectiveness was improved by around 0.7% by utilizing an enhanced busbar-free screen printing metallization process. The approach was based on heterojunction procedures established in between Enel as well as INES, utilizing production equipment given by Switzerland's Meyer Burger. Enel stated the performance rise was implemented by integrating busbar-less technology-- which makes it possible for a lot more light to fall onto the cell surface-- as well as a treatment established by INES and also Enel that further improved cell passivation. "The procedure likewise calls for less silver and also is ending up being less costly," the speaker stated. In December, the new energy innovations and nanomaterials (Liten) branch of the French Alternative Energies as well as Atomic Energy Commission stated it had actually attained 24.25% peak efficiency for a silicon heterojunction solar cell. In August, bothered Chinese supplier Hanergy established a brand-new performance record for a silicon heterojunction module at 24.85%, edging out the previous record of 24.5%, held by Kaneka. The Japanese firm still holds the record for heterojunction cell efficiency, at 26.7%, on a slightly smaller gadget.
