AffiliationA solar developer based in Connecticut has started the construction of his sixth solar project under the Shared Clean Energy Facility (SCEF) program of the State in 2025. These projects are more than 30 MW solar energy. The SCEF program, under the supervision of the Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA), is designed to expand access to solar energy, especially for households with low to moderate income (LMI). Participating residents can subscribe to part of the electricity generated by a SCEF project and credits received on their electricity accounts. “Verogie strives to ensure that the benefits of renewable energy in…

Scientists have developed a new optimization approach that combines both day-head optimization and real-time optimization to improve the activities of PV-driven EV charging stations. The framework is based on the auto -grazing advancing average and the Latin Hypercube sample models. September 22, 2025 Lior Kahana A worldwide research team led by scientists from Chinese Tianjin Renai College has developed a new stochastic optimization technique for improved shipping and operational efficiency in charging stations of PV-driven electric vehicles (EV) equipped with energy storage systems (ESS). The proposed frameworks integrates a day -threatening optimization and real -time optimization to process forecasts, so…

The annual European photovoltaic solar energy conference (EU PVSEC) started today, this year in Bilbao. Conversations on the first morning were aimed at the need for strong policy support in several areas of renewable energy. Although the week will certainly be filled with new ideas on the technological side, it is clear that guaranteeing the policy to support further growth of renewable energy is a growing challenge. Those who work in the solar industry and research community must reach a wider audience, and one that may not be so easy to convince. September 22, 2025 Mark Hutchins The opening -scientific…
