The largest island state of Malaysia wants to be the ‘green battery’ of the region The green, river-crossed state of Sarawak, the Malaysia, is calculating plans to become a regional ‘green battery’, but the dreams of renewable energy enforcement can come to serious environmental costs, warn experts. Sarawak’s leadership is clamped between the Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and Philippines peninsula and believes that it can become a keystone in a regional energy transition. The many rivers and streams offer potentially abundant hydroelectricity and can one day the electricity production of green hydrogen. It is also the installation of solar and biomass…
The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada unanimously approved a draft order that the Zonne -Zonne -Zonne -Zon will make Nevadans more expensive, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA). “The concept order issued by the Nevada PUC wrongly puts a mandatory question to all residential customers in South Nevada and rewrite the rules for new solar customers in North Nevada,” said HL, Senior Manager of the Intermountain West for Seia. “The design order is also in contradiction with the intention of the legislative power when it restored the net measurement in Nevada. This is an important step backwards that…
European renewable energy company NTR has raised € 65 million for monvallet, a ready-made solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) portfolio. Financing marks the construction of the Irish factory of NTR for the L&G NTR Clean Power (Europe) III Fund. The company has collected the funds in addition to Rabobank and Siemens Financial Services, in which Siemens Bank provided an initial debt of € 65 million for the first two solar projects, which are part of a broader potential portfolio financing facility.

The Solar Stewardship Initiative (SSI) says that all solar modules that are on their way to the European Economic Environment, Switzerland and the United Kingdom must come from production locations that are certified for environmental, social and administrative standards and traceability of the supply chain. September 18, 2025 Patrick Jowett The SSI has adopted a new series of binding goals and reporting requirements for the members of the manufacturer. The initiative, which was first launched in 2022, was a sun -specific sustainability assurance program developed by SolarPower Europe and Solar Energy UK. It currently represents more than 70% of global…
The Airport of Cologne-Bonn has installed 80 self-adhesive photovoltaic panels on the 27-meter chimney of its Cogeneneration factory in a pilot project using Heliatek modules. September 18, 2025 Pilar Sánchez Molina Cologne-Bonn airport in Germany has launched a pilot photovoltaic installation. The system consists of 80 glue solar panels mounted on the 27-meter chimney of the CO-generation factory of the airport. The new installation has a collective surface of approximately 70 m². The modules are located on the south on the dome surface of the chimney. The pilot system generates up to 4,400 kWh per year, roughly the same as…
Intersolar & Energy Storage Noord -Arikika (Iesna) announced the 2026 Solar Games In San Diego, California, will contain two important changes: Point -based system: instead of a single elimination, teams are now fighting every round for points. The teams with the highest totals move forward and ensure that the top performers are in the final. Updated suitability: teams that participated two years in a row now only have to wait a year before they are applied again. These changes offer competitors more opportunities to present their skills and strategy-while creating an energetic experience for spectators. The rewards remain the same:…

China has a 100 MW hybrid energy storage facility connected to the schedule. It integrates super capacitors and lithium ion batteries, which sets up a new benchmark for ultra-fast frequency regulation services. September 18, 2025 Vincent Shaw By ESS News A 100 MW hybrid frequency regulation factory in the northern province of Shanxi, North China, was connected to the grid at the end of August and is expected to take full commercial operation according to the developers in September after testing in September. The facility is promoted as the world’s largest supercondensator-based installation and combines a supercondensatoraRay of 58 MW/30…
A research team based in China and the United States has developed electroactive polymer -switterions to change zinc oxide interlayers in organic solar cells. Their work appeared to passivate defects in organic solar cells, improving the performance and stability of the device. September 18, 2025 Patrick Jowett A group of scientists based in China and the United States used PolyMeerzwittersions that include conjugated units to change zinc oxide interlayers in organic solar cells. Their work is presented in the research paper ‘Modification of zinc oxide intermediate layers with naphthalene-based polymer switterions for efficient organic solar cells”Available in the magazine Portable…
