High grid link prices led to a solar strike cost in Ireland's first Renewable Electricity Support Scheme (RESS) public auction "dramatically greater than anywhere else in Europe" according to the Irish Solar Energy Association (ISEA).

The weight of a thin-film rooftop PV installation at Netherlands football club AZ Alkmaar has been highlighted in media reports as a possible cause of a stadium roof collapse. However, a full investigation is yet to be launched and one German specialist said studies have shown flush-mount PV panels do not increase static wind loads on rooftops.

A South Korean research study team has actually asserted that clear PV innovations need to boost in terms of performance, stability as well as aesthetic appeal prior to they can get to commercial maturity.

Revive and upgrade an old plant in Quebec with C$750 million, partly funded by the Canadian and Quebec governments. Production has capacity for 2.5 million electric vehicle batteries and is expected to begin in 2026. Solus Advanced Materials Co. unit Volta Energy Solutions leading the project.

The devices behind light-elevated temperature-induced deterioration are still not completely comprehended, yet it is known to cause considerable efficiency losses for modules in the field. Researchers in China are investigating the causes of the sensation, as well as are currently concentrated on the surface area of the materials and the user interfaces in between the silicon and passivation layers.

Discover how NREL and Solar Unsoiled are tackling the issue of pollen and bio-soiling on solar panels in the Southeastern US. A 10-year study finds that frequent rains are not enough to keep the panels clean and prevent financial losses.

Organic solar cells are less expensive to generate as well as more flexible than their counterparts made from crystalline silicon, yet do not supply the same level of effectiveness or stability. During his doctoral thesis, Andrej Classen, who is a young researcher at FAU, showed that boosts in performance can be achieved using bright acceptor particles.

Ilmatar Solar AB is making history with its first solar array in Sweden. With plans to construct and grid connect 55MWp of energy at Knihult, it's set to power 210,000 homes and become a major success in the Swedish market. Get the story behind the project Spring 2024.

The federal government designated 168 MW of ability via the tender and also chosen three developers for 11 projects, with capacities of 100 MW, 48 MW as well as 20 MW.

Corporations are buying up batteries and investing in their companies like it’s going out of style.

Japan’s LDP moves to end >1MW solar subsidies, citing Chinese panel risks, as PM Takaichi backs nuclear restarts and perovskites to hit FY2040 energy mix goals.

The latest 7 MW of net metered solar capacity in Dubai indicates 11 MW were added across ten new arrays in just nine days as the Shams initiative continues to work up a head of steam.

Highview Power, an international leader in long duration power storage services, has actually entered into a joint endeavor contract with Energia Latina S.A.-Enlasa, the biggest back-up power generation company in Chile, to co-develop giga-scale cryogenic energy storage projects in Chile and also various other Latin American markets.

Iberdrola’s 10-year PPA with Gestamp delivers 660 GWh renewable power for European plants, backed by 34 MW wind/solar and guarantees of origin—fixed prices for electrifying industrial processes.

Scientists in the United Kingdom have examined the development of cracks in PV cells, validating that the heats cells are exposed to during soldering for interconnection are a leading root cause of breaking. Their searchings for will certainly help future study right into module integrity and also forecasts of just how fractures are most likely to form.
