Discover how Windorah, a remote town in western Queensland, is replacing its failed solar dish farm with a new $4.5 million solar farm that promises to meet the town's electricity needs. Ergon Energy is taking steps to ensure success and the locals are cautiously hopeful.

European Energy A/S has won approval to construct a 90-MW solar farm in Italy’s Puglia Region. The project, led by Thorvald Spanggaard, will generate enough energy to power 55,500 households. The solar park will use tracker panels on 35 hectares of land and involve reforestation and infrastructure upgrades. European Energy's ambitious goal to develop renewable energy in all of Italy moves closer to reality.

Commercialized thin-film photovoltaic panels on the market include rare-earth elements like indium and gallium, or very toxic steels like cadmium. Both of these thin-film photovoltaic panel types have their own problems, such as high-cost and issues in operation in living places.

A solar module consisting of lenses or other optical elements that focus sunlight on a photovoltaic cell, thus increasing the amount of solar energy captured.

The manufacturer said its new hybrid device includes a maximum power point tracking system, which makes it ideal for east/west oriented rooftop PV systems. The inverter is available with power outputs of 3 kW and 6 kW and is compatible with most lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries that are made by leading storage specialists.

Statkraft's cutting-edge PPA with Luminous Energy showcases their innovative approach to energy trading, providing price certainty and risk management for solar farm generators.

Five PV power plants, each with a generation capacity of 15 MW, were grid-connected in the Russian Republic of Buryatia and the Zabaikalsky Territory. The projects were built under a program which offers generators capacity payments and the ability to trade on the wholesale energy market.

Qualitas Energy has completed a €280m refinancing operation on the 500MW Mula photovoltaic solar plant in Spain. BBVA, EDC, DekaBank, Unicaja and Bankinter participate in the "Green Loan Principles" classified loan. Qualitas is a leader in renewable energy investment and management since 2006.
