LS Power Has Engie Services taken over and renamed the company to its previous name, OPTERRA ENERGY SERVICES. OPTERRA has more than 50 years of operational experience and offers energy solutions, including upgrades of energy efficiency, renewable energy systems, energy storage, microgrids, operations and maintenance, HVAC and lighting. OPTERRA has completed more than 9,000 projects in the public sector in North America. “Meeting the growing energy demand in America will require a ‘Meer-Van-Alles’ approach, and the market for energy services is an integral piece of that puzzle,” said LS Power CEO Paul Segal. “The addition of OPTERRA brings a rare…
Women in Solar+ Europe – Wisu Network lived this week with the launch of powerful State of the Nation report of the powerful women, where leaders and changemakers called to close faster action to close the gender gap in energy. June 13, 2025 PV -Magazine The incremental progress in the female representation in the British energy sector is not sufficient, especially at the top. That is the clear message of the Annual State of the Nation report 2025″ This week launched by Powerful Women (PFW) in collaboration with Bain & Company. The Benchmarkt Gender Representation Report in the Top 100…
San José Clean Energy (SJCE) has announced a significant extension of his award-winning solar access program, which offers 100% renewable energy to pollution with lower incomes in San José with a discount with a lower income. While he serves more than 800 customers since the launch in 2021, the program will expand to more than 1,000 customers thanks to a new solar energy plant in Merced County and an increased energy capacity, funded by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). Residents of the solar access program Wonen in neighborhoods that have been historically related to disproportionate environmental impact, including pollution…
Insight into the costs related to the production of green hydrogen from renewable sources is essential to evaluate its large -scale viability in a global energy context. From this perspective, Enertis Applus+ carried out a comparative analysis of the production costs of green hydrogen production to analyze the level of hydrogen (LCOH) at ten international locations with different levels of solar and wind sources, using off-grid electrolyzers that are exclusively driven by renewable electricity systems. Thanks to a rigorous approach, with more than 4,000 simulations and a detailed analysis of each scenario, the study offers a solid route map to…
Transmission -infrastructure building essential to curb the rising costs between the electricity grid of Great Britain, according to the operator of the electricity system. New report shows that thermal restrictions were the most important motivation of increased balance costs, with planned malfunctions in Scotland that turned with high wind. June 13, 2025 Matthew Lynas It cost GBP 2.7 billion ($ 3.7 billion) to balance the electricity grid of Great Britain in the financial year 2024-25, an increase of 10% at 2023-24 according to the National Energy System Operator (NESO). New analysis by Neso showed that increased thermal limitations were the…
Nexamp and Trajecty Energy Partners celebrated the opening of Blue Grama Solar this week, a 4.7-MW Community sun farm that marks an important step forward in the clean energy transition of Illinois. As the first Community-powered Community Solar (CDCS) project Under the Illinois Shines program, Blue Grama Solar, based in Galesburg, Illinois, it gives priority to the involvement of the community and local benefit, which sets up a new standard in the development of renewable energy. The Blue Grama Solar Project has more than 8,000 solar panels and will generate sufficient electricity to compensate for the annual electricity needs of…
The CKW utility based in Switzerland has installed PV systems on unused satellite dishes at the Telecom Company headquarters Nice TDC, using SolarEdge’s DC optimized inverters and power optimizations to maximize the system output. June 11, 2025 Patrick Jowett Swiss energy company CKW has converted unused satellite dishes into solar systems. The dishes, located at the headquarters of the Swiss telecommunication services provider Leuk TDC, are used to compensate for the energy requirements of the company’s data center. The installation comprises two satellite dishes that each contain 307 solar panels, where each dish can generate approximately 110,000 kWh of energy…
In 2025 worstelt de zonne -industrie om af te komen uit bijna twee jaar grote overaanbod, waardoor de prijzen voor PV -modules voor veel leveranciers ver onder de productiekosten blijven. De productie van energieopslag heeft de afgelopen jaren een vergelijkbare aanpassing doorlopen, hoewel de markt nu tekenen van hernieuwde groei vertoont naarmate de vraag naar elektrische voertuigen zich ontwikkelt. Deze zware omstandigheden laten weinig fabrikanten achter in een positie om uitbreidingen of nieuwe productielijnen te overwegen, op zijn beurt, waardoor een uitdagende markt voor leveranciers van fabrieksapparatuur ontstaat. Wuxi Lead Intelligent Equipment Co. Ltd. (Lead) levert apparatuur aan beide industrieën.…
Academics have developed a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for PV systems that combine incremental conductivity with Fuzzy Logic Control. The entrances used are the sum of conductivity and incremental conductivity and the speed of change. It had an average efficiency of 97.7%. June 12, 2025 Lior Kahana Research led by scientists at the Cadi Ayyad University of Marrakech from Morocco has proposed a new MPPT algorithm for PV systems under fluctuating conditions. Their method combines incremental conductivity (Inc) with Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC), using the sum of conductivity and incremental conduction (SINC) and the speed of change (CSI)…
In an exclusive interview with PV -MagazinePanamanian energy secretary Juan Manuel Urriola said that the government will open the electricity market for private investments and revise regulations to make energy storage possible. Urriola also emphasized the importance of long -term planning and transparent bidding to attract developers. June 13, 2025 Luis Ini By PV Magazine Latam Panama has no specific goals for installed PV capacity, said Panamanian energy secretary Juan Manuel Urriola. “Our energy goals are extensive and intended to meet demand in a safe, reliable and competitive way,” he said PV Magazine and noted that the country strives for…
