Where Energies has launched flexible solar modules up to 70% lighter and less than 3.5 mm thick. The panels can be connected directly to surfaces without penetrations, suitable for locations where drilling or heavy support structures are impractical. August 22, 2025 Uma Gupta By PV Magazine India Where Energies has launched its next generation of flexible lightweight (FLW) solar modules. The panels, designed for surfaces where traditional glass panels cannot be installed, make it possible to make the adoption of solar energy over curved metrogevels, gasoline peas, barriers along the road, street furniture, rail infrastructure, walls and urban roofs with…

Diamonds and gold bars are never just stores of value, they always carry a story. Some stories shine with prosperity and sustainability; others are tarnished by exploitation and conflict. This is the reality when comparing Botswana’s sustainable diamonds to so-called “blood diamonds.” Over the past three years, Botswana has re-emerged as a global benchmark for ethical resource governance, proving that diamonds and precious metals can fuel development rather than destruction. This article contrasts Botswana’s sustainable diamonds with the scourge of blood diamonds, explains how lab-grown diamonds are reshaping the space, and expands the lens to gold and platinum-group metals (PGMs).…

Brazilian scientists have investigated the potential of agrivoltaisies on sugar cane fields and have shown that this combination can offer benefits in terms of both agricultural and electricity yields. Their results showed that under certain circumstances the sugar cane yield under the panels can be higher than that of suddenly without PV. August 21, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A research team from the Federal University of Alagoas in Brazil has investigated how Agrivoltaic facilities can be integrated into sugar cane fields and has discovered that both the electric and agricultural yields of this combination benefit. “Our analysis showed that the yield…
