In his keynote address, Stone explained the role of storage in the clean power plans of the government. Image: Solar Media. The British government will publish its flexibility route map later this year, so that a precedent will be established for the rollout of long -term energy storage (LDES). Speaking at the Energy Storage Summit EU 2025 in February, deputy deputy director of Smart Electricity Systems for the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (Desnz) Duncan Stone that storage is a priority for the government and it is “particularly active” on LDES. The clean power goals of the government…
The one-phase-Omwriting series can last between 4.5 kW and 12 kW PV input and convert to an AC output from 3 kW to 8 kW. The new products have a maximum efficiency of 97.6%. March 20, 2025 Lior Kahana The AU3-8KEL-G2-Omsorter Image: Austa The Chinese manufacturer Austa has released a new series of one -phase low voltage hybrid inverters for residential applications. “Central to its intuitive interface is an LCD approach screen with high resolution, so that users effortlessly enable and control energy production, storage and consumption,” the company said in a statement. “Users have access to detailed statistics, can…
Ampion renewable energy was selected as the Community Solar Administrator for the Erie County Low Income Program for Sustainable Energy (Eclipse), a new program that offers electricity savings to residents with low to moderate income from Erie County, New York. Together with Erie County, Ampion will offer eligible residents of electricity savings through community zoning. Credit: Ampion “There are currently more than 80,000 households with low to moderate income in Erie County who can benefit from this program. We encourage residents to take advantage of this opportunity,” said Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz. “Eclipse Community Solar can be linked…
Scientists in the UK have used aluminum oxide in perovskiet solar cells to reach lifespan of more than 1,300 hours at the bottom of standards-based heat and moisture tests. Their analysis showed that a reference cell based on conjugated polyelectrolytes broken down in a tenth of the time. March 20, 2025 Valerie Thompson Scientists in the United Kingdom have used aluminum oxide oxide (Al₂O₃) nanoparticles (NPs) as a interface modifier at the Hole Transport Layer (HTL) to increase the life of perovskite solar cells. The researchers said that the nanoparticles aluminum oxide have considerably improved the lifespan and stability, as…
Storage implementation in the United States grew on all segments and it is expected that another 25% will grow in 2025, according to Wood Mackenzie. March 20, 2025 Ryan Kennedy The Powin Centipede Battery Energy Storage Platform Image: Powin By ESS News Cross all segments, including residential, commercial and industrial, and utility scale, energy storage brought annual basis on annual basis in 2024. “The energy storage industry is quickly scaled to meet the moment and to deliver reliability and cost savings for American communities, which play a crucial role in strengthening and balancing cheap renewable energy sources and improving the…
New research from Germany has for the first time investigating the idea of building a photovoltaic dyson-bol, a theoretical mega structure that can offer enormous amounts of energy for interstellar space travel and large-scale technological efforts. Despite the very theoretical and science fiction inspiration, the study explains what consequences a similar construction would have on life on earth. March 20, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A researcher from the German research institute Forschungszentrum Jülich has for the first time investigating the opportunity to design a Dyson globe using photovoltaic modules. A Dyson -Bol is a theoretical artificial mega structure that is built…

March 20, 2025 David Carroll By PV Magazine Australia West -Australia (WA) Silicon manufacturer Simcoa Operations has received an Aud $ 39.8 million ($ 25 million) investment from the Australian government to support the production of silicon of the country. As an important part of solar panels, the financing is part of the third party of the Powering the Regions Fund’s (PRFS) $ 600 million Safeguard Transformation Stream (STS), which supports the…
The American energy storage market established a new record in 2024 with 12.3 GW of installations in all segments, according to the latest “US Energy Storage Monitor”Report released by the American Clean Power Association (ACP) and Wood Mackenzie. The report shows a total of 12,314 MW and 37.143 MWh, which represents an increase of 33% and 34% respectively over 2023 figures. Terwijl de implementaties op het gebied van energieopslag van de roosterschaal op de roosterschaal met 20% daalden in vergelijking met Q4 2023, was dit voornamelijk te wijten aan de vertraging van 2 GW aan projecten in de ontwikkeling van…
The European Commission on Monday a new auxiliary schedule to enable Spain to use large-scale energy storage with co-financing of up to 85%. March 19, 2025 Pilar Sánchez Molina By ESS News The European Commission approved a new auxiliary schedule on Monday for the use of large -scale electricity storage in Spain. Subsidies will be available for independent energy storage sites, projects installed in addition to facilities for sustainable energy and storage planned as part of thermal power plants. The program of € 700 million ($ 763 million), run by the Spain’s Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge…
