New Push for Aussie Solar: Tindo Pitches $100m Mod Gigafactory
Adelaide-based Tindo unveils plans to build a $90-100 million "gigafactory" in Australia, backed by federal government support. The ambitious project relies on ARENA funding, state initiatives, and the 2022 IRA. With the right support, Australia's last remaining solar panel producer can kick start a domestic upstream supply chain.

A new material for the battery of the future, made in UCLouvain
Renewable sources of energy such as wind or photovoltaic are intermittent. The production peaks do not necessarily follow the demand peaks. Storing green energy is therefore essential to moving away from fossil fuels. The energy produced by photovoltaic cells is stored during the day and by wind-power when the wind blows to be used later on when needed.
