Amite Solar in Louisiana. Credit: Nextera Energy A review by the Sun Day campaign of Data just released The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) reveals that, despite the signing of Donald Trump that signed the anti-renewable legislation of the Republican Congress at the beginning of July, the solar electricity during the month by more than 30% balloon, while the wind grew by almost 14%. Solar Electrical Generation established new records in July and the first seven months of 2025: Eia’s last monthly “Electric electricity monthly”Report (with data up to and including 31 July 2025), again confirms that solar energy is…
Energy transition -Investor Adaptogen Capital has announced the end of a financing round and has a 100 MW Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in West Yorkshire.The acquisition of the 100 MW Old Road Bess marks the final capital obligation of the Adaptogen Battery Storage Fund, which now has a complete portfolio of storage assets on the grid -scale.The portfolio is managed by the British owner-operator Varco Energy, financed and owned by adaptogen.The 100 MW Bess in West Yorkshire will start starting in 2027 and will provide frequency and voltage regulations, capacity reserve and load shifting services.A dedicated vehicle was raised…
Thieves stable 50 km cable with a value of approximately € 100,000 ($ 117,400) of a 11 MW solar project in South Germany, with repair costs that are expected to exceed the material loss, according to the police. September 24, 2025 Ralph Diermann Image: Matt Brown, Wikimedia Commons, CC by 2.0> By PV Magazine Germany Unknown perpetrators stable 50 km cable from a fenced solar farm in Ahorn-Berolzheim, Baden-Württemberg, in southern Germany, a theft with a ton of material that could not be discreetly removed. The police estimated the value at around € 100,000, with repair costs that are probably…
New research from the Netherlands showed that renewable energy sources and storage in the short term can meet around 92.5% of European electricity demand in future energy scenarios, whereby the remaining 7.5% is paid by green hydrogen. The scientists considered Europe to be fully self-sufficient with zero import export of strength or hydrogen, with each of the 37 countries in the modeling a self-supply percentage of at least 80%. September 24, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Researchers from Utrecht University in the Netherlands claim that almost all energy demand in Europe can be paid by solar PV and wind energy, whereby the…
The solar capacity of Kuwait, which today is about 50 MW, is expected to surpass 1 GW in 2029 before it will quickly increase in the first half of the following decade to surpass 10 GW by 2035, according to predictions of Rystad Energy. September 24, 2025 Patrick Jowett Kuwait is on its way to reach 2.9 GW cumulative solar capacity towards the end of the decade, against a current 50 MW today, according to figures released by the Norwegian research agency Rystad Energy. According to figures shared with PV -MagazineRystad Energy predicts Kuwait to surpass 1 GW Solar in…
Experts from the International Solar Energy Society explains how regional spectral shifts of the standard spectral distribution of sunlight bring new insights into the implementation of bifacial perovskiet-silicon tandem solar cells. September 24, 2025 International Solar Energy Society (Ises) The ASTM G173 Standard spectral distribution of sunlight Represents a standard, reference solar spectrum that is used for testing and calibration purposes of solar photovoltaic tests. It was defined in the seventies and is derived from measurements at a location with clear atmospheric conditions and an air mass of 1.5 (AM 1.5), which is typical of sunlight on middle-widths (such as…
New research from Germany has shown that heterojunction solar cells with silver buyer on the front with silver buyer and silver pasta on the back an efficiency coping of 0.13% compared to the reference screen printed bifacial cells based on silver alone. The research group worked specifically on printing and screen printing as printing methods. September 24, 2025 Emiliano Bellini and Valerie Thompson Researchers from the Forschungszentrum Jülich of Germany have shown that the heterojunction (HJT) solar cells with motorized with copper (CU) pasta or copper -silver (CUAG) pasta can achieve efficiency levels that are comparable to those of PV…
UrbanPV has developed a wooden frame 46 kW parking design for ten parking spaces, including the Access Lane. September 24, 2025 Valerie Thompson UrbanPV, based in Switzerland, has launched a PV solution for wooden frame for parking spaces. Dubbeds Stedelijk, the system integrates solar panels with a wooden tax-bearing, broad-spension structure. The PV system has a power of 48 kW and is integrated into a wood structure. It has an approval of 4.5 m and covers 10 parking spaces, or an area of 17 mx 12.5 m. It uses 470 W Semi-transparent solar panels implemented in parallel Pitch-Dakarrays in an…
The Maryland Energy Administration has today announced the availability of $ 8 million to help install the higher education institutions in higher education on solar energy systems. Through the Higher Education Clean Energy ProgramThe agency wants to create sustainable, energy-efficient campuses that serve as practical learning environments and hubs for education for renewable energy and creating jobs. Now in the second year, the tax year 2026 Higher Education Clean Energy Program subsidies for solar installations, clean energy at campus level and planning of sustainability, curriculum development and staff training in the university and universities of Maryland. “Higher education institutions are…
Sarawak Energy says that it will grant discounts of a maximum of $ 2,800 for PV systems that are planned to operate under the net measurement schedule of Malaysia. September 23, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Sarawak Energy Berhad from Malaysia has said it will grant discounts to homeowners who are planning to install PV systems on the roof. The state -owned company of the State, the only energy company for the state of Sarawak, said that the subsidies will be granted to PV arrays that are active under the Net Energy Measurement (NEM) program of the country, which has recently been…
