The florida-based solar developer Zeo Energy Corp. has taken over heliogen, a concentrated solar-power-tower specialist, that combines distributed PV expertise with solar technology on tools. August 14, 2025 Ryan Kennedy By PV Magazine USA ZEO Energy, a Florida-based supplier of residential solutions for solar energy and energy efficiency, has completed his acquisition of heliogen, a specialist in concentrated solar energy. The merger creates a platform for clean energy about overstring residential, commercial and utility -end markets. Zeo Energy said it is planning to set up a division aimed at long -term energy generation and storage for commercial and industrial scale…
By 2050, nearly 70% of the world’s population will live in cities, creating unprecedented energy demands in areas where space comes at a premium. Urban centers across North Carolina are experiencing rapid growth, with cities like Charlotte, Raleigh, and Richmond adding thousands of new residents annually. Yet these dense urban environments present unique challenges when it comes to adopting solar energy solutions. Wwhile suburban homeowners might have expansive south-facing roofs perfect for solar installations, urban dwellers face a puzzle of limited roof space, building shadows, aging infrastructure, and regulatory hurdles. Whether you’re a homeowner in a century-old brownstone, a developer…
Modular PV manufacturer Canyon Solar has successfully installed 250 KWP Zonne-Zonne energy in one night as part of a three-week build in a shopping center in northeastern Australia. August 14, 2025 David Carroll By PV Magazine Australia So far, Canyon Solar has completed its fastest project delivery with the installation of a 250 kW prefabricated solar shadow structure in the parking lot of the Warner Marketplace shopping center in Brisbane, Australia. Canyon Solar, based in Sydney, said the project, delivered in collaboration with Smart commercial solar energy And Woolworths, the installation of 36 prefabricated pods over 78 motorcycle speeds, where…
Paired forceA leading manufacturer of charging systems for electric vehicles on solar energy (EV), received a patent for his pairtree Solar Canopy solution. The patent, entitled ‘Solar Canaky Systems and Methods’, formally recognizes the own approach of Paired Power of the installation of solar air canopy, which implements electric vehicles in situations with limited or no grid power. This marks the fourth patent of the company since 2016. The newly patented technology includes a method for increasing solar panels above a foundation using an integrated lift mechanism. In contrast to conventional canopy installations that require increased work, scaffolding or external…
Researchers from the University of Sheffield developed a machine learning framework to improve the coating properties in a roll-to-roll slot that coating process. The work is seen as a first step in the direction of wider use of machine learning and related technologies to help with optimization. August 14, 2025 Valerie Thompson Researchers from the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom have developed a machine learning framework to improve the coating properties in a roll-to-roll slot that coating process. “Insofar as we know, this work is the first optimization of machine learning of roll-to-roll slot that coating, looking at…
It is claimed that the integrated system efficiently offers dynamic load-balancing, while management and future Smart Grid applications are supported. The Heat Pump technology comes from Mitsubishi’s Ecodan, Mr. Slim and M Heat Pump Series, which EVHACS has been adapted for integration with the EV charger. August 14, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Japanese electronics and production company Mitsubishi Electric and Ireland-based heating and cooling specialist EVHACs jointly offer an integrated heat pump and electric vehicle (EV) charger. The two companies claim that the new solution is the world’s first integrated system. “With the integrated system, homeowners, ownership developers and commercial operators…
Black Metal can give a heavy boost to the generation of solar energy In the search for energy dependence, researchers have studied solar -thermo -electric generators (Stegs) as a promising source of generating solar electricity. In contrast to the photovoltaïschens that are currently used in most solar panels, Stegs can use all kinds of thermal energy in addition to sunlight. The simple devices have warm and cold sides with semiconductor materials in between, and the temperature difference between the sides generates electricity through a physical phenomenon that is known as the Seebeck effect. But current Stegs have important efficiency restrictions…
Romania has assigned 1,488 MW Zonne -Zonne -Energy in its second contracts for Difference (CFD) auction for renewable energy sources. The prizes of the 26 winning solar offers varied from € 35.50 ($ 41.59)/MWh to € 45.20/MWh. August 13, 2025 Patrick Jowett The results of the second auction of Romania, which are planning to obtain 1,472 MW of Sun and 2,000 MW onshore wind, have been announced. A total of 26 solar offers from eight companies have received contracts for a difference, with a combined capacity of 1,488 MW. Prizes for the winning solar offers vary from € 35.50/MWh to…
The Maryland Energy Administration has announced the launch of a new initiative to help provinces and municipalities in Maryland in automating and accelerating their residential solar energy permit. The state agency SolarApp+ Implementation Grant Program is a federally financed, $ 3.9 million FY 2025 program that helps to pay the costs related to the implementation of the free SolarApp+ Solar permit software to be used, in line with Maryland Law. By using SolarApp+, local authorities can approve solar projects more efficiently, which saves valuable staff time while retaining rigorous safety and code rigoring standards – and help reduce the costs…
The Connecticut Green Bank And Goods have announced a strategic partnership to develop and exploit virtual power plants (VPPs) in Connecticut. This collaboration effort, made possible through that of the State Program for energy storage solutions programwill focus on the use of residential solar systems and storage of battery energy to lower energy costs, improve the resilience of the network and to promote the clean energy goals of Connecticut. Enabled by Goodleap’s ai-Powered proprietary software, Goodgrid, and Integrated with the utility’s Distributed Energy Resource Management Systems (Derms), The VPPS Can Aggregate Thousands of Residential Solar and Storage Systems, Suspijdated Networks…
