Solar wafer manufacturer NexWafe has finished its Series C financial investment round, with proceeds earmarked for product and also innovation growth on prototype lines in Germany.

Sale gives the German firm ownership of a 3GW solar pipe in the country

Clearway Energy Group secures $700M financing for 200MW solar park and battery storage in California, benefiting San Diego Gas & Electric and Southern California Edison.

This week pv magazine was in Amsterdam for the sixth edition of the BifiPV workshop, where the discussion focused on the impressive achievements made by bifacial solar modules and the challenges the technology faces as it moves toward mainstream adoption.

When it involves providing energy for space exploration and settlements, commonly offered solar cells made of silicon or gallium arsenide are still too hefty to be probably delivered by rocket.

At Australia's University of Newcastle hydrogen production starts with water extracted from the atmosphere and electrolysis powered by totally free energy from the sun; sucking CO2 from the air is the next action to filling Angus Taylor's cherished gas facilities with green methane that can bring spuds to the boil and power the economy while assisting to flatten the nation's discharges curve.

POSTECH study group included Prof. Taiho Park as well as Junwoo Lee, a pupil in joint MS-PhD program created Alkoxy-PTEG, opening transportation polymers that could be liquified in pepper mint oil, by using ethylene glycol side chains when they generated high effectiveness perovskite solar cells. Additionally, they verified that this polymer caught dripping lead in the aged perovskite solar cells.

The Chinese module giant has committed to sourcing 70% of its energy from renewables by 2023 and all of it by 2025. If serious, that could represent confidence in the amount of new renewable energy generation capacity to come online in China given the company’s huge production capacity expansion plans.

For years, scientists have tried to make reputable lithium-metal batteries These high-performance storage cells hold 50% more energy than their respected, lithium-ion relatives, however greater failure prices and security problems like fires and also explosions have paralyzed commercialization initiatives. Researchers have assumed why the gadgets fall short, yet direct evidence has been sparse.

Scientists from Eindhoven University of Technology, Delft University of Technology as well as TNO (partner in Solliance) have actually made an integrated solar-assisted water-splitting system with a flow electrochemical cell and a monolithic perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell.

Says the monocrystalline ingots will drive indigenization to generate renewable electrical power from Silicon based PV modules with effectiveness ranging from 21% to 24%. The new production line will create silicon ingots solely for its solar wafers, cells as well as modules production.

Italian solar module manufacturing subsidiary 3Sun secures €560 million in financing for its Sicily plant, boosting Italy's manufacturing sector. The move comes as Germany faces challenges in solar manufacturing, highlighting opportunities in other parts of the EU.

Spanish scientists have actually revealed a monolithic nano-structured perovskite silicon tandem gadget they assert can lower optical losses by greater than a 3rd contrasted to planar perovskite cells of the very same kind.
