Anker Solix has unveiled the F3000, a 3-kh portable power plant designed for backup and off-grid use in the United States and Canada, with fast charging, EV and generator compatibility and scalable capacity up to 12.3 kWh. June 6, 2025 Tristan Rayner By ESS News Portable battery company Anker Solix has announced the launch of his newest power plant, the Anker Solix F3000. The product offers 3 kWh (3,072 WH to be precise) with an output of 3.6 kW, which can process most devices in a house and devices in the field. The F3000 can be charged in various ways.…

Scientists in China have introduced developments in the figure optimization method, which is inspiration from Hoarfrost’s development course in nature. They compared it with other MPPT algorithms and found it faster and to improve the power. June 6, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from Chinese Shenyang Agricultural University have developed a new maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology for PV systems that work under partial shadow. Their new method is an improvement in the figure optimization -algorithm that imitates Hoarfrost’s development development in nature. Their improved rime (irime) algorithm was demonstrated and compared to two other algorithms particle swarm optimization (PSO)…

On 4 June, InensEnergy, the 250-MW Hardin III Solar Energy Center recently started activities. The Energy Center is the third by the Inventer Facility completed in Hardin County, Ohio. WEC Energy Group is the majority owner of Hardin III and Microsoft will buy the electricity and renewable energy credits (RECs) that is generated in the facility via a PPA. “Hardin III Solar is the highlight of a decade -long collaboration with Hardin County and the local community,” said Michael Kaplan, Senior VP of Development at Inenserty. “We are proud that we have collaborated with dedicated partners to make meaningful local…

The FHS will state that if developers cannot meet the requirements to install PV cover on the roof, equal to 40% of the floor space of a building, a “reasonable amount of” coverage is still required. Image: Geograph via Wikimedia Commons. Ministers have confirmed the Future Homes Standard (FHS), which is published in the fall, will foresee that all new -build properties have installed solar PV. Energie -Secretary Ed Miliband said that “common sense” in De Standaard is a “monumental step” in the promise of the government to unleash a “revolution on the roof”. The proposed FHS will explicitly promote…

The Aerocompact of Austria says that its new PV mounting system can be installed on foil, bitumen, gravel and concrete roofs. It is said that the wind loads of a maximum of 1.7 kn/m2 and snow loads of a maximum of 3.5 kn/m2 can withstand. June 6, 2025 Lior Kahana Aerocompact has launched the Compactflat S_Base, a PV mounting solution with a flat roof with a basic plate designed for one-person, tool-free assembly on foil, bitumen, gravel and concrete surfaces. “It is only supplemented with module clamps and brackets made from aluminum, which offer corrosion resistance, exceptional durability and maximum…

Wärtsilä Bess -units at EDF’s 50MW/100MWH Bustleholme project. Image: Wärtsilä EDF Renewables UK has sustained the Finnish technology group Wärtsilä for two Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects. The deal, announced yesterday, deals with the 47.5 MW/95MWH Indian Queens project in Cornwall and the 50 MW/100MWH Bredbury project in Greater Manchester. Both are currently under construction, planned with Bredbury for commercial operation at the end of 2025 and Indian Queens in the first half of next year. It means that Wärtsilä has now been contracted for supplying eight grid -scale battery projects for EDF in the UK a total of…

Scientists in India have designed a new pollution room that is able to emulate the polluted conditions of a certain geographical location in a shorter time frame, with larger panels compared to conventional setups. The new room can be used to estimate the losing losses and cleaning costs for potential solar energy power plant locations, to improve existing pollution models, to investigate how tilt angle influence pollution and to evaluate the effectiveness and durability of anti-smaring coatings. June 6, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Researchers from the University of Tezpur in India have developed a new type of pollution room that is…

This week, women in Solar+ Europe give a voice to Krystyna Kacperska, marketing director Europe at the Poland -based Segenolar. She says she never labeled her leadership style, but she always sought to lead authentically. “That includes vulnerability. I lead in the same way as I live: solution -oriented, assertive, empathetic and open. I give a lot to what is happening at work, and although I still learn to set limits and link, I know that care makes me a stronger leader,” she says. June 6, 2025 Women in solar energy+ Europe Working in the solar industry has been a…

All locations are in the south of England and two were attracted together with Bess. Image: Low carbon. Earlier this week, the French energy giant Totoengies acquired a pipeline of eight solar projects from Low Carbon with a total capacity of 350 MW, together with two battery storage projects of a total of 85 MW. The companies have not indicated which projects took over total benchmarks, but updates for companies house have unveiled most sites, all of which are ready to build the stage. Callie’s solar farm -A 39 MW PV factory in Buckinghamshire, with 80 hectares of land southeast…

The supplier of heating solutions established in the UK has developed a pre-designed and ready-made unit that is compatible with the most residential heat pumps available on the market. It can be placed under a standard hot water cylinder and indirectly transfer the heat from the pump via a plate change to the central heating. June 6, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Heating Specialist Heat Saviour, established in the VK, has unveiled Heat Saviour, a pre-mounted retrofit unit for heat pumps that are reportedly can reduce the installation time and costs by 20%, while easily maintenance is also guaranteed. “Installing and…
