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…

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…
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…
