Solarcycle ENGIE NORTH America (ENGIE) announced that as part of an increasing approach to circularity, it will manage a new precycling provision to include the solar panel and the project componentecycling in first agreements for four projects. The innovative approach was developed in collaboration with Solarcycle. The precycling determination includes recycling in power purchase agreements and helps developers to record the project at the start of the project. This is especially relevant for energy buyers aimed at project circularity and sustainability goals. The agreements ensure that about a million panels of 375 MW of projects in the midwest are recycled…

Scientists in Austria have performed a risk analysis for four setups for linked PV-Electrollyser systems and have tested them under three use cases. They calculated failure opportunity and the level of the level of hydrogen and the risk -weighted variant. June 18, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from the Austrian Institute for Technology have carried out a risk analysis of linked PV-Electrollysers systems and have shown that electrolyzers have a higher chance of total system failure compared to the PV factory. “This article presents a new and integrated risk -cost framework for designing and operating PV -Magazine. “It promotes the state…

Senator Mike Crapo Released concept text Of the version of the Senate Financing Committee of the Budget Reconciliation Bill on 16 June. While the design makes small improvements in the incentives in the field of solar energy, it still takes a hammer to the IRA in general. Budget proposals from the Senate ITC/PTC (48th/45Y) projects can start construction for full ITC credit by the end of 2025 Credit phases up to 60% when construction starts by the end of 2026, 20% when construction starts by 2027 48th/45y projects can be put into use at the end of 2029 for full…
