The reach of cost-competitive green hydrogen production is crucial for the transition to a net-no-green greenhouse gas emission economy. Green hydrogen offers a viable solution for the low-carbon industries that are among the heaviest polluters, including metal production, heavy transport, chemicals and energy-intensive sectors that currently depend on fossil fuels. It plays a central role in Power-to-X (PTX) technologies and serves as a important raw material For producing synthetic fuels and chemicals, such as e-methanol, e-amammonia and e-cerosene. In the metal industry, which is good for around 7% of Global Co2 Emissions, direct reduction of iron using green hydrogen can…

The “Solar Learning Lab” has been developed in collaboration with the Development Development Program Sustainable Energy (Sewdp) On Prince George’s Community College, and strives to equip local residents with practical training, certifications recognized by industry and clear paths to work in the clean energy sector of Maryland. ‘By working together with Clean Slate Solar, we enable us to offer our students…
Researchers in China have used an argonplasma polishes pre-treatment (app) to remove surface defects and to increase the effectiveness of passivating in perovskiet solar cells. The result is a Perovskite device with a 2D interface that considerably improves stability and performance. June 11, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Researchers at Nankai University in China have manufactured a perovskite solar cell using a 2D/3D perovskiet hetero interface that improves the stability and performance of the device. The Interface is placed between the perovskiet and the gate transport layer, which improves the transport/extraction of load carrier and at the same time suppresses Ionmigration. Cells…
Sigenergy has deployed a 10 MW/20 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) on a solar site in Malko Tarnovo, Bulgaria, using 240 kWh battery papers that are usually found in residential systems. June 11, 2025 Cornelia Lichner Image: PV Magazine, Cornelia Lichner By ESS News Stationary Bess is usually categorized by size, starting with stacking systems, followed by cupboards and ending with container units. A large container can store a maximum of 5 MWh of energy. Cabinets usually contain a few hundred kilowatt hours, while piles are mainly used by houses and small companies. Although smaller Bess types can be…
An international research team has developed an index -based teledentment method to see trends in the global development of water -based PV. It has established that China is currently good for 80% of the worldwide total capacity used. June 11, 2025 Lior Kahana A research group led by scientists from Chinese Tianjin Normal University has used satellite images to reveal the rapid development of global water -based PV (WPV) in the past 20 years. WPV consists of both floating PV systems and photovoltaic plants that are used on fixed structures in shallow water. For the task, the team has developed…
