Indian researchers simulated a new coupling of a CSGEI3 Lead-free Halide Perovskiet Top cell with a copper-Indium-gallium-selenide soil cell. The resulting tandem device can achieve a power conversion -efficiency of 26.06% August 18, 2025 Valerie Thompson Researchers, led by a Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology team in India, have simulated a tandem solar cell based on a lead-free perovskiet top cell with a wide energy band of 1.6 EV and a copper-Indium-Gallium-Gallium-selenide (CIGS) with a narrow band of 1,1 EVE device. The new two-term device has a potential conversion efficiency of 26.06% “The current study focuses on minimizing the losses…
Turn energyA National Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer, and the University of Colorado Boulder, broke officially on a 5-MWDC Virtual Net Measurement Solar Project in Weld County, Colorado last week.

Researchers in Denmark have developed a new size strategy to combine PV system processing with lithium ion batteries and super capacitors. The proposed approach would reduce the annual battery cycle by 13%. August 18, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A group of scientists at Aalborg University in Denmark has devised a new measuring approach for combining PV current generation with hybrid energy storage of lithium ion batteries and super capacitors in an attempt to improve storage activities and reduce operational costs. “By combining lithium-ion batteries with super capacitors in an intelligent way, we use the strengths of each technology,” said the research…
Lithium Universe Chief Executive Iggy Tan said that the collaboration with Macquarie University is aimed at solutions that combines Macquarie’s research of world class with the commercial vision of the company. “Together we deliver a breakthrough recycling solution that restores silver with a lot of purity while retaining waffle integrity,” Tan said. Veettil said that the technology could possibly expand later to extract other valuable metals, including gallium, indium and copper from discarded solar panels. The Australian Energy Council has said that by 2050, the global waste from the solar panel will reach 60-78 million tons, whereby only Australia accumulates…
A project from Solmicrogrid. Solmicrogrid announced the launch of its energy-as-a-service ‘(Eaas) partner program, where the company will only buy an existing solar energy or full Microgrid system that is on or almost completed, giving them a fast output and preceding cash. In turn, Solmicrogrid will offer the giving customer clean, no-capex energy under a long-term energy-as-a-service (EAAS) agreement. In comparison with the traditional “build-and-sell” model that is common in the entire industry, the approach of Solmicrogrid offers a flexible solution and delivers faster outputs to developers, together with cost savings, operational efficiency and seamless energy management to host sites.…
Jakson Green secured 85,000 tons (MT) per year in Solar Energy Corp. From India’s (SECI) sixth green ammonia auction on a record-drill inr 50.75 ($ 0.58)/kg, which marks the lowest bid so far. August 15, 2025 Uma Gupta Image: Jakson Green Infinity By PV Magazine India Jakson Green achieved 85,000 MT per year in SECI’s sixth green ammonia auction on a record-run inr 50.75/kg, with the previous lowest bid of INR 51.80/kg defeating and set a new benchmark for green ammonia prices in India. The company will deliver the Green Ammonia to Coromandel International Ltd. (CIL) in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh.…
Off-grid and Microgrid company Tube has unveiled a new LFP battery that has been assembled in California. The ABX -1110 -Baba also meets Build America, Buy America (Baba) -Requirements The modular ABX-1110-Baba offers 116 AMP-hours capacity per module, up to 55 kW load/discharge power (depending on the configuration), and supports all important American voltage configurations, including 120/240V Split phase EN 208V/480V three-color. The system can exist as an independent battery or integrated with solar, generators or microgrids. The system weighs around 3000 lbs and 96 x 44 x 91 inches. It is sharpened with forklift truck bags and crane eyes…
Neighbor to neighbor Solar Trading Lifts Returns and illuminates the tension on the schedule Australian researchers report that households can earn more by selling surplus PV on the roof directly to nearby buyers via Peer -To -Peer -Energy parts, prices between feeds and retail rates, while the local gridstress is illuminated. Around 25 million households today use solar energy, with 100 million predictions by 2030. In 2024, an estimated 597 GW of solar capacity was installed worldwide, an increase of 33 percent at 2023. Australia leads on adoption, with panels on almost 40 percent of the houses, or around 4.1…
This week Wisu network -Women in Solar+ Europe after the prediction of SolarPower Europe of a fall of 1.4% in the EU -Zonne -Zonne -Zonne -Growth for 2025, the first decrease since 2015, and why this signals more than just a delay in the market. To achieve 2030 goals, we not only need better strategies; We need a transformation in leadership ourselves. That means dismantling ancient prejudices that equalize leadership with dominance and detachment, and embrace a more complete spectrum of qualities: empathy, cooperation and emotional intelligence, now recognized as essential for navigating complexity and stimulating the energy transition. August…
A fire on RECs Solar Cell and Panel Factory in Singapore in June set back the delivery time lines of the company, according to a letter sent to American customers this week and shared with Solar Power World. Production has resumed and REC has committed itself to fulfilling all contracted orders before fulfilling the sale of the safe haven. The REC factory in Singapore. A small fire forced REC to take its cell lines offline for repair, inspection and maintenance at its 1.2-GW annual capacity factory in Tuas, Singapore. New equipment was installed and the line was re -used within…
