Researchers in the Middle East claim to have identified the optimal parameters for the commercial production of Perovskiet-Silicon Tandem solar modules at different locations. Their analysis showed that the production costs can currently be as low as $ 0.387/W, with the prospect to reach $ 0.25/W in seven years. June 16, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Researchers from Middle Technical University in Iraq have assessed the economic viability of the production of Perovskiet-Silicon Tandem PV products and have identified what they have defined as the optimum parameters for future production scenarios. The scientists claimed that their work offers an “end-to-end” approach for…

A map of the now matched Garnton Bess site. Image: Renewable connections. Battery Energy Storage System (Bess) and Solar PV Developer Renewable Connections have received a building permit for a 52 MW Bess development in Oxfordshire. The Yarnton Bess is on 1.5 hectares of land in eastern Yarnton, Oxfordshire, after he received the planning committee of the Cherwell District Council in March of this year; The Council issued its decision on 13 June after ecological studies were fully completed. The project will use the battery technology from Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and the site has been approved for an operational…

Heefwit, based in Italy, has developed a 200 AH-Natrium battery with a lifespan of 6,000 cycles. Allegedly the device offers thermal stability and rapid charging speed. June 16, 2025 Lara Morandotti By ESS News The Italian Startup Hefit has developed a sodium battery for residential use. Heefwit said that the battery entails a lower fire risk, avoiding materials with considerable geopolitical care and offers recycling to the end of life more easily. “The total costs are lower than lithium opposite equal capacity,” the company said in a statement. The system measures 700 mm x 480 mm x 170 mm and…

The energy regulator of Romania Anre has adopted new grid connection rules, changes in the research process of the solution, the requirements for financial guarantees and the conditions for the connection agreement introduced to give priority to adult projects and facilitating gridcunistry. June 16, 2025 Patrick Jowett The energy regulator of Romania Anre has formalized a reform of the framework of the network connection. It follows a consultation for new rules for grid connections that ran earlier this year. Under the new framework, which came into effect at the beginning of June, solution studies must be completed in chronological order,…

Aggrow has successfully completed a transfer of tax credit for a solar project on the roof in a carpet factory in Pennsylvania-a much-needed energy source for the factory that would not have been possible without stimuli from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Bloomsburg Carpet Industries In Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, there is a third -generation manufacturer for iconic institutions, including the house and senate rooms of the US Capitol, the American Supreme Court, Radio City Music Hall and Carnegie Hall. With the installation of a 1.49 MW of solar energy system on the roof of the factory, Bloomsburg reduced operational overhead and…

Ahaan Solar, part of Airox Nigen Equipments, is planning to start production from the first 600 MW phase of its 2 GW Solar Module Factory in Haryana, India, Mid 2025. The facility will use tunneloxide-passivated contact (Topcon) uses very efficient modules. June 16, 2025 Uma Gupta Image: Kushagra Dhall, Unsplash By PV Magazine India Ahaan Solar, the Solar Energy Division of Airox Nigen Equipments, expects to start production in mid-2025 from the initial 600 MW phase of the planned production facility of 2 GW Solar module. The factory is being developed in a 17 -hectare renewable energy park in Haryana,…

Chinese Energy Storage Speciliast Hithium has completed a milestone UL supervision fire safety study, which indicates a step-by-step change in system-level fire protection for grid-scale battery storage. June 16, 2025 Vincent Shaw By ESS News In the midst of the grown global control over the safety of energy storage systems, Hithium has successfully performed the world’s first open-door extreme fire test, which determines a precedent for safety validation in the sector. The test offers a technical model with high commitment to inform future product safety standards. The subject of the test was Hithium’s itself developed ∞-block 5mWh liquid-cooled battery storage…

Researchers from Swiss and Austrian institutions have demonstrated a new design for a glass-free, structurally robust silicon PV module. With a weight below 6 kg/m2, the intended application is older buildings with a weak roof structure. June 16, 2025 Valerie Thompson To make silicon PV panels better suited for building integrated PV (BIPV) applications, such as low tax -bearing facades, as well as roofs of older buildings and warehouses, researchers based in Switzerland and Austria built new glass -free modules. The target weight was less than 6 kg/m2 and the mechanical and environmental robustness was the focus of testing. “The…

The real question that Colorado owners ask. You have already taken the big step – your house runs on solar energy. But recently, whether it was a grid, a rising electricity bill or just wanted more control over your energy, you started to ask yourself: “Do I have to add a battery to my solar system?” If you are in Colorado and think of upgrading your solar panels with a battery, you are not the only one. Thousands of homeowners ask the same question and the answer can unlock serious savings, safety and self-reliance. Let’s break it down. Table of…

China Communications Construction Co. has started building the 70 MW Enesolar-3 Solar Plant in Nicaragua, which supplies electricity to the usefulness of water Enacal and cover around 40% of its electricity needs. The PV project is so far the largest in the country. June 13, 2025 Patrick Jowett Image: Aboodi Vesakaran, Unsplash The construction is underway on a 70 MW solar project in Nicaragua. The Enesolar-3 Solar Facility, located in the city of Nindirí in the Masaya Ministerie of West-Nicaragua, will be the largest solar installation in the country to date. An inauguration ceremony for the project, led by China…
