Wattlab has installed a PV system that is able to deliver up to 35 kW to the high-voltage driver of a cargo ship, so that it can temporarily replace one of the four diesel generators under optimum conditions. July 14, 2025 Scarlet Schmitz By PV Magazine Germany A PV system has been put into use on a new cargo ship developed by HGK Shipping and Salzgitter AG, so that electricity is delivered directly to the drive system of the ship. A total of 192 solar modules offer electricity for both the built -in low -voltage system and the high -voltage…
By Brad Kramer July 14, 2025 This edition of Projects weekly Emphasizes the new solar system on the roof and the canopy in one of the busiest ports in the United States. Plus, SolarBank’s 7.2 MW Hoadley Hill project has completed a mandated interconnection study to move forward, Recurrent Energy has energized a 1,200 MWh storage facility in Arizona in time to meet peak summer demand, DSD Renewables has partnered with General Energy to complete a 675 kW solar project for the Elmhurst Park District in Illinois, and a New Community Solar Project Has Powered Up in the Baltimore-Washington Region.…
Scientists in India have created a wind solution system in a tree form that combines wind turbines and a PV system with trackers with two axis. The team constructed a hardware-in-the-loop prototype that can generate up to 444.5 WH per day. July 14, 2025 Lior Kahana A research team led by scientists from the India’s Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering has developed a tree type of PV-Wind Power System for off-grid applications. “A hybrid tree is a synthetic construction that looks a lot like a real tree, with solar panels or wind turbines that are installed on its branches. It…
The ‘Lucky Star’ Bess is near a 49.9 MW Utility-Scale PV energy plant on solar energy. Image: Root Power. Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Developer Root-Power has received a building permit for a 50 MW/100MWH ‘Lucky Star’ project in Kent. The Lucky Star 2-hour expensive Bess is located near Herne Bay, on the north coast of Kent, north of Canterbury. It is strategically located 100 meters from the Herne Bay substance, making the battery storage location possible. In doing so, this lowers the development costs of infrastructure in connection with connecting a berry of a utility scale with the national…
Nanyang Technological University researchers have glass solar panel waste for use in cathodes used in lithium metal batteries of a fixed state. When used as a functional filler in material with fixed polymer electrolyte (SPE), the resulting battery performance during 80 load cycles was maintained with an improvement of 8.3 % compared to the reference device. July 14, 2025 Valerie Thompson A team of researchers from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore has developed a process to use glass panel waste as a raw material for cathodes in lithium metal batteries for fixed condition. By milling broken solar glass waste in…
Experts advise people with a serious interest in solar sun to act quickly and carefully consider their choices to prevent headache. July 11, 2025 Ben Surentara By PV Magazine USA In many American states, solar installations on the roof can offer financial benefits. The solar energy goes to reducing the energy consumption of the house, and all generated excess electricity can be sent back to the utility for at least some credit. In this way, a solar installation that is owned by the homeowner acts as a cover at rising utility costs. These financial benefits have been made partly possible…
Australian researchers improved predictions of solar generation by 14.6% by integrating advanced AI methods with seasonal knowledge of First Nations, and offers a new potential for more accurate planning of renewable energy. July 11, 2025 EV Foley By PV Magazine Australia Researchers from Charles Darwin University (CDU) in the Northern Territory of Australia have developed FNS-Metrics, a solar prediction system that uses seasonal information from First Nations Calendars. The team has entered this data in Conv-Enterble, a new AI prediction model that they have designed. The outcome of the study was an error percentage of the solar for the foremost…
This week, women in Solar+ Europe give voice to Jesús Alijarde, founder and CEO of Spain’s Ibersyd / Cerbo. He says that one of the earliest prejudices he had to confront, was the idea of men as protectors of women. “It may sound noble, but in practice it strengthens inequality,” he says. July 11, 2025 Women in solar energy+ Europe When I think about gender equality in the solar industry, I see a sector that reflects many others where technical work, design and financial management cross each other. The biggest barriers are clear. Installation and building rolls remain heavily dominated…
Developer of clean energy Distributed Energie -Infrastructure (Dei) Has given three energy storage systems in Massachusetts a total of 21.6 MWh. The batteries made by Jinkosolarare now operational under the Massachusetts Renewable Target (Smart) program of the state. “Working with Dei on these projects has been a great opportunity to show the value of Jinkosolar’s US Energy Storage Solutions and our local technical expertise,” said Jeff Juger, deputy general manager and head of Ess at Jinkosolar (US) Inc. “We are proud to support the fully integrated project delivery model and to speed up the transition to a cleaner grass.” “These…
The Fari Islands on the Maldives develop a mix of floating and solar installations mounted on the ground that is expected to meet up to 50% of the archipelago’s electricity story on sunny days. The systems are part of a broader plan to expand the use of renewable energy on the development of the resort with four islands. July 11, 2025 Patrick Jowett Image: The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands The total solar capacity on the Fari Islands on the Maldives is expected to triple by the end of the year to 6.4 MW. The four-year-old Archipel, located in the North…
