EDP ​​Renewables North America (EDPR) has announced that Bar Harbor Solar, a 999-KW distributed generation project, has achieved commercial activities. Bar Harbor Solar is located in Hancock County and is the second operational solar project of EDPR in Maine. Bar Harbor Solar offers affordable, clean and reliable power to the Bangor School District, Epstein Properties and more local companies and institutions, so that the resilience of the state and independence of the state is suspended. “Maine needs reliable energy to provide its communities and its economy, and we are proud to meet that need with innovative, affordable power solutions that…

While Brazil is making progress in the customer, “behind the meter” and off-grid battery solutions with more than 700 MWh mist, the guidelines for a planned Gigawatt scale national auction. Markus Vlasits, president of the Brazilian Association of Energy Storage Solutions (ABSAE), says PV -Magazine About the battery battery of the national national scale. June 17, 2025 Lívia Neves By ESS News Absae estimates that Brazil already has between 700 MWh and 800 MWh in storage capacity for battery energy. With the nation still awaiting details of an energy-storage-prepared grid capacity reserve (LRCAP) planned by the National Electric System Operator…

Researchers in South Korea have discovered that the contamination by small amounts of soldering clux residues during the production of heterojunction PV module production can cause considerable long-term relegation. Careful control of Flux -Collection Methods and the recording of drying steps are presented as potential solutions. June 17, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A group of researchers from the Korea Electronics Technology Institute (Keti) has investigated how commercially available soldering fluxes IndiumTin oxide (ITO) electrodes in hetero junction (HJT) can corrode solar cells and have discovered that there is a significant risk of early breakdown trial. Solder fluxes are used to remove…

Hundreds of solar employees and lawyers arrived at the Save Main Street Solar Rally on Capitol Hill today to encourage congress to protect tax credits that support hundreds of thousands of American jobs. The Bill Text that was released last night by the US Senate Finance Committee would become the American solar and storage industry, in particular thousands of small companies in the sun sector on the roof, because it would eliminate the home credit for solar energy at the end of the year. Many of those companies and market leaders joined the rally today to tell the congress that…

Form-changing hybrid materials offer a light future for solar and LED innovation In today’s energy-intensive environment, the design of new devices for more efficient and renewable energy sources is at the forefront of scientific research. A particularly interesting approach uses Ruddlesden-Popper Perovskites-a Type Laagnant Material made from alternating sheets of inorganic and organic components. These materials are potentially ideal for various applications, including light -emitting diodes (LEDs), thermal energy storage and technology for solar panels. Recent research under the leadership of graduated student Perry Martin of the University of Utah in the Bisque Lab, housed in the Department of Chemistry,…

Last week manufacturers of solar energy signed an estimated 15 GW of sales and delivery agreements and delivery agreements on SNEC 2025 PV EXPO in Shanghai. Large contracts include the 1.75 GW order of Jinkosolar for the SPPC project of Saudi -Arabia and the 2 GW agreement of Ja Solar to support the production of solar energy in India. June 17, 2025 Vincent Shaw PV manufacturers such as Jinkosolar, Arctech Solar, Ja Solar, Huasun, Seraphim, Aiko Solar and Hanersun jointly signed more than 10 GW PV module -sales and supply deals on SNEC 2025 PV Expo, held on 11 to…

The Redox Flow project has an enormous storage capacity, which is expected to be finished by mid-2028. June 17, 2025 Sandra Enkhardt This is what the Laufenburg Technology Center should look like. Completion is planned for 2028 Image: Flexbase By ESS News Flexbase Group has started to build what could become one of Europe’s largest flow battery storage installations, whereby the land is broken on an 800 MW/1.6 GWH Redox flow system in Laufenburg, Switzerland. The project combines storage on utility scale with an AI data center and district heating network in an ambitious development with multiple use. The Swiss…

Energie360 ° from Switzerland and Solar Tech Specialist Insolight have agreed to build an Agrivoltaic factory of 1,300 panels on a cherry farm in Leerggern, Switzerland. The facility combines crop protection and dynamic light management. June 17, 2025 Francois Puthod By PV Magazine France The Insolight of Switzerland has unveiled plans to install 1,300 solar modules, each with a nominal capacity of 600 W, in an Agrivoltaic facility that includes 12,000 square meters of agricultural land in Leergger, Canton Aargau. Farmers Rudolf Obrist and Hansjörg Erne grow cherries on the site. The construction of the factory is planned to start…

Earlier there was a “planning dead zone” in the reach of 50 MW-150MW, where developers did not consider it cost-effective to request permission via the NSIP regime. Image: Low carbon. The capacity threshold in which solar and onion wind projects are classified as nationally important infrastructure projects (NSIPs) will increase to 100 MW from December 31 this year. Legislation by infrastructure planning (onshore wind and solar generation) Order 2025, onshore wind has been re -introduced in the NSIP regime and solar -PV developments with generating capacity under 100 MW will now be approved at the level of the local authority.…
