June 2024 marks a milestone: solar energy dominates U.S. power growth, capturing 97% of new capacity and propelling renewables to a bright future!

New york city State authorities have actually authorized a permit for a 500MW PV plant from solar developer and also owner Hecate Energy.

sPower, a renewable energy independent power manufacturer, obtained 9 solar projects in New York from National Grid Renewables, the renewable energy arm of National Grid's competitive, unregulated division.

The new Law on the Use of Renewable Energy Sources is coming into force. Minister of Mining and also Energy of Serbia Dubravka Đedović said the new framework enables auctions for electricity from new capacities.

The global solar industry leader has demonstrated new achievements for its HOT bifacial N-type and mono-PERC P-type module. Both types of solar devices have been tested by German TÜV Rheinland.

The scientific group from NTU (England) has proven that a wearable PV device can be integrated into clothes. The innovative fabric has been based on µc-Si cells embedded into fibrous textile by means of super-thin copper wire. The newly created material is claimed to keep its efficiency after 6,000 abrasions, 25 handwashing and 15 machine washing cycles.
