Trina Solar has shared on a project, covering 160 hectares of farmland, that utilizes Trina Solar's 210 Vertex 550W series and also is expected to generate 110 million kWh of electrical power a year.

European satellite operator Eutelsat has revealed one of the two solar arrays on its recently launched 5 West B satellite has been lost. Only 45% of the craft’s generation capacity can be operated, hitting the company’s bottom line to the tune of $5-10 million.

Xcel Energy has received approval to build a 10-MW/1,000-MWh iron-air battery at its Sherburne coal-fired power plant in Becker, Minnesota. With 100 hours of energy storage, Breakthrough Energy Catalyst's USD-20-million commitment and Form Energy's Weirton, West Virginia manufacturing facility, this project marks the first of two iron-air batteries Xcel will install at retiring coal plants.

A study team led by Prof. Ge Ziyi at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has actually established an alkoxy-substituted asymmetric conjugated molecule as well as doped it right into the PM6: BTP-eC9-based binary organic solar cells (OSCs) as a 3rd component, leading to high-efficiency ternary OSCs with a power conversion performance (PCE) of over 18.1%.

Scientists from TU Dresden, in cooperation with researchers at Seoul National University (SNU) and Korea University (KU), demonstrated the role of the re-use of photons (called 'photon recycling') and also light scattering effects in perovskite solar cells, supplying a pathway towards high-efficiency solar energy conversion. The study has been published in Science Developments.

Around the world there are currently more than 18 billion internet-connected smart phones. In the following 10 years, prepared for development in the Internet of Things (IoT) and in machine-type interaction as a whole, will certainly cause a world of thousands of billions of data-connected things.

The power conversion performance (PCE) of single-junction perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has actually increased remarkably from 3.8% to 25.2% in simply a decade. As the quick development of PCE has been approaching the limit of its academic performance, making tandem solar cells by incorporating subcells with different bandgaps offers an avenue to surpass the Shockley-Queisser restrictions of single-junction solar cells.

Axpo starts NalpSolar, an 8 MW alpine PV project in Tujetsch, set to supply Swiss Federal Railways for 20 years under Bern’s Solar Express programme.

The solar sector supply chain's jitters continued this week after polysilicon prices hit one more high, driving silicon wafer prices better up as well.

Revolutionary tandem solar cells with over 29% efficiency and exceptional stability developed by top researchers in Australia. Say goodbye to traditional manufacturing concerns.

Investments in solar PV and also battery cell manufacturing could be mothballed unless electricity expenses fall, says Rystad

A team of Brown University researchers has actually discovered a method to double the durability of a ceramic product used to make solid-state lithium ion batteries. The approach, explained in the journal Matter, could be beneficial in bringing solid-state batteries to the mass market.

Enphase’s Q3 results show a company that has turned its fortunes around, with revenues more than doubling and high profitability, but questions remain around growth potential.

Aberla Energy has actually been chosen as professional energy contractor for the Progress Housing Group, authorizing a three-year solar contact.

Solar module supplier Seraphim has released its new S5 series of high-efficiency PV modules with a maximum power result of approximately 670W as well as a performance of 21.57%.
