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…

Standard solar energy and Port Newark Container Terminal (PNCT) have completed a 7.2-MW solar project that is designed to integrate with the operational complexity of an active marine terminal in Newark, New Jersey. The project provides clean energy with the help of roof and canopy systems without disturbing the gate activity. Credit: standard solar energy Made in collaboration with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and the city of Newark, the system was built on active truck jobs, roofs and parking spaces, using the available space while maintaining full activities during construction. It now delivers about half…
