The Chinese manufacturer said that his new heat pump system can deliver continuously and stable hot water to 75 ° C. At a temperature between 35 ° C and 55 ° C, the new product is said to reach a seasonal performance coefficient (SCOP) from 4.6 to 5.23, with COP values ranging from 3.86 to 5.63. April 10, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Chinese DC -Omverter Heat pump manufacturer Amitime has launched a new heat pump system for residential applications. “The Ecostar Pro series has excellent and excellent performance,” the company said in a statement. “It can deliver continuous and stable…
Solar panels from Moon Dust can cause a revolution in Lunar Energy Supply In an important progress for the durability of the moon, scientists have manufactured solar cells with the help of simulated moon fabric, and offer a lightweight, radiation -resistant energy source for future moon missions. The research, published on 3 April in Device, a diary of Cell Press, outlines a new approach that can drastically reduce the need to drastically reduce the earth’s extensive materials. “Current space quality solar cells can achieve 30% to 40% efficiency, but they have substantial costs in both dollars and mass,” explains Felix…
Scientists from the Korea Institute of Energy Research claim that they have reached the highest efficiency ever that has ever been reported for a perovskiet-cigs tandem solar cell with flexible, lightweight architecture. The device also appeared to achieve “excellent” sustainability. April 10, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) announced that it achieved a power conversion of 23.64% for a tandem solar cell based on a topperovskiet device and a soil cell based on copper, indium, gallium and diselenide (CIGS) technology. The result is a world record for lightweight, flexible Tandem Perovskite-Sigitarian devices, the research group said,…

Octopus Energy Services has responded to the government’s decision to lower the payments to homeowners of Solar for their surplus electricity by launching its Solarplus, Home Solar-Plus-Battery product. April 10, 2025 Francois Puthod By PV Magazine France With the French government that relieves the rates that must be paid for electricity that is exported by solar households in the grid, Octopus Energy Services is launching a product that combines a battery, solar energy and energy consumption flexibility. Octopus said that its SolarPlus system will enable users to maximize self-consumption of electricity and to lower energy bills, which may be desperately…
Researchers from Aalto University in Finland showed a proof-of-concept of laser-processed glass that should be used as a type of solar concentrator for building integrated PV (BIPV) applications. The treated glass made a 55-fold increase in the photo flow generation possible compared to unprocessed glass, with an estimated optical efficiency of 0.66 %. In addition, a fluoropolymer coating was applied to create a self -cleaning surface. April 9, 2025 Valerie Thompson The Finnish researchers of the Aalto University investigated with the help of a one-step femtosecond laser directly writing process to produce a proof-of-concept based on nanog-structured commercially available borosilicate…
