The Malaysian authorities say that approximately 1.7 GW of PV systems operate under the Malaysian building Integrated photovoltaic (MBIPV) schedule and the three Net Energy Metering (NEM) programs of the country. July 2, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Malaysia’s energy transition and the Ministry of Water Transformation (Petra) has updated the MBIPV schedule and NEM programs for PV systems on the roof. The ministry said that around 1.7 GW of PV systems are currently active among the two programs, with another 595 MW in development. According to the revised framework, PV system owners in the MBIPV schedule will receive energy drawing…
Worldone Energies has announced plans to build a 1 GW Solar Module Factory in Ontario, Canada, which marks an important step in its worldwide expansion beyond India. The facility will produce tunneloxide -passivated contact (topcon) bifacial modules and meet the North -American market. July 2, 2025 Uma Gupta By PV Magazine India Worldone Energies has announced plans to set up a production facility of 1 GW Solar Module in Ontario, Canada, which marks an important step in its global expansion beyond India. The facility will produce Topcon bifacial modules and meet the North -American market. The company said that the…
Scientists in Malaysia have developed a new deplete method for mapping PV fitness. By applying the new approach in the Middle East, they discovered that around 5.8% of the region has a very high suitability and 11.5% is very suitable for the development of PV energy. July 2, 2025 Lior Kahana A research team led by the National University of Malaysia has developed a new deplete method for PV fitness mapping. “The novelty of our research lies in the development of a fully optimized and interpretable deep learning -pipeline, combining tabet, optuna and shap for mapping Solar PV site,” said…
One of the objectives of the state -owned company is to create local jobs and strengthen the domestic supply chain for clean energy. Image: Solar Media. Great British Energy will find opportunities to develop technological sovereignty in the supply chain to encourage the concept of energy that it has been designed in the UK that supports the recently released industrial strategy. That is what Rob Gilbert, director Supply Chain at GB Energy, told PV Tech Managing Editor Ben Willis to a discussion at the UK Solar Summit in London in London, yesterday (July 1). Introduction to him, Willis said that…
A castle in Bavaria, Germany, has installed a brick PV system using colored solar modules from Futurasun in Italy. The project was made possible by a recent amendment on the Monument Protection Act of Bavaria, making solar energy on heritage buildings possible. July 2, 2025 Sandra Enkhardt By PV Magazine Germany A PV system with stone red solar modules is installed on the listed Blumenthal Kasteel in Bavaria, Germany. The 120 KW system is so far the largest of its kind in Bavaria, according to the Italian module manufacturer Futurasun, which supplied its red-colored FU370m Silk Nova Red Panels for…
In this contributed article, Mark Macaulay, partner, Adam Brown, counsel, and Roddy Cormack, senior employee, of the project team of law firm Dentons focuses on the market opportunities for pump supply hydropower. Inertia, an important but complex physical aspect of electricity systems, is the ability to rotate machines, traditionally through thermally driven turbines, to offer system stability by resisting sudden frequency changes. System frequency stability refers to maintaining the work frequency after disruptions between generation and load – such as peaks in the electricity demand or malfunctions. This is crucial for power delivery and preventing damage to equipment. Rasters that…
The Chinese solar module maker Risen has revealed that its Hyper-ion Pro-Zonne module, based on its own N-type HJT technology, has achieved an average capacity of 740 W in mass production. According to the Fujian Metrology Institute, the cell efficiency of the module is 26.61%, with incoming losses limits limited to 1.8%, resulting in a module efficiency of 24.81%. The company attributed the performance to various internal technologies, including a stress-free cell interconnection method, a zero-bus bar design and the use of ultra-thin silicon waffles. Other important developments include a reduction in silver use up to 5 mg/W-accident 37.5% lower…

Spain has considerably increased the share of the solar energy since 2020, with the total capacity rising from approximately 11.74 GW to around 34 GW. The first limitation events for solar energy took place in April 2022. In the past two years, limitations have influenced 2.9% of the photovoltaic energy output of Spain, with 2.5% of those who received no compensation. Briefing is not compensated when they are reported a day in advance. During that period, PV restrictions caused losses of more than € 107 million ($ 125.9 million), or € 146,400 per day. The level of energy costs (LCOE)…
“The CFD portfolio will not just grow, it will evolve,” said LCCC CEO Neil McDermott. Image: Solar Media. Back for the second day of the UK Solar Summit in London, the team is ready to present live coverage while the event is set. Updates are published here all day. In search of the ‘holy grail’ of decrease agreements as the use of solar energy and negative prices grow “The trend is clear: the sensitivity of projects for negative prices will rise,” says Stirling Habbitts, director of business development and director of hydrogen at Source Galileo, who moderate a discussion about…
