In a submission of 8 K to the Securities and Exchange Commission on 29 May 2025, Sunnova Energy Corporation announced that it is his loan guarantee agreement with the US Dept. Whether Energy had changed on May 22, 2025. The change reduced the maximum aggregated amount of partial guarantees from $ 3 billion to $ 371.6 million. This is the same as the total partial guarantees that were previously published for Sunnova’s Two Solar Loan ABS transactions under the Hestia project. The aim of Project Hestia was to offer disadvantaged homeowners and communities with increased access to flexible capacity via…
An international research team has observed a significant increase in series resistance in Topcon sun cells treated with Leco after temperature and bias treatment. The scientists said that they now have to conduct further research into its impact on cell efficiency, reliability and bankability. June 2, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A group of researchers from the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom and the Chinese metallization pasta specialist Changzhou Fusion New Materials has identified a new failure mode in Topcon-Zonnemodules that have been made through the so-called laser-improved contact optimization process. The process is carried out after firing the metallization…
An illustration of the now approved Rochdale Bess. Image: Balans Power. Battery Energy Storage System (Bess) Developer Balance Power has announced that it has successfully obtained the planning state for a new Bess project in Greater Manchester. The Rochdale Bess, who is about ten miles outside of Manchester in Rochdale, is a 30 MW, two -hour energy storage development of two hours. The project will be located next to the M62 fast road; The traffic noise of the highway in the area means that the noise effects of the project will be minimal. A total of 12 battery storage units…
Researchers in China came up with a new PV prediction approach that integrates causal convolution, recurring structures, attention mechanisms and the Kolmogorov -Arnold Network. Experimental results show that the proposed model performs better than 10 existing prediction models. June 2, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from the normal University of Oost -China have developed a new PV Power Prediction model for scenarios with considerable fluctuations. Dubynchronized Crak, the new Hybrid Deep learning model combines a convention layer, followed by a recurring layer, a mechanism of attention and a Kolmogorov -Arnold network (can). “The model emphasizes the integration of various input functions…
The European Commission says that in 2025 it will introduce an energy storage package, as set out in a new report on progress by the Member States by 2030 goals for clean energy. June 2, 2025 Pilar Sánchez Molina By ESS News The European Commission said that in the fourth quarter of 2025 it will launch a European Grid package to expand the energy storage capacity and to withdraw investments in clean energy. The plan announced in addition to an evaluation of the national energy and climate plans of the Member States, which states that it will streamline EU legislation…
The installations of the solar energy system influence less than 1 percent of AG soil from Arkansas Large-scale solar energy arroys occupy around 0.2 percent of agricultural land in Arkansas, according to an analysis from the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture. The production of solar energy is increasingly being used to meet both energy needs and zero net emission goals in the United States. Arkansas follows this trend with various production production systems in the field of solar energy built in 2023 and 2024, and more planned to come online online. This has expressed some concern about the…
Ameresco announced that the commercial operation reached the Solar PV Canopy Project in Reston, Virginia. The project was developed through a partnership with BXP, a developer, owner and manager at the workplace. The 1.3 MW solar project will help the Reston Town Center facility of Power BXP. “Ameresco has been a crucial partner in delivering impactful solar projects,” said Ben Myers, senior vice -president of sustainability at BXP. “This project required overcoming various economic, technical and logistical obstacles. Ameresco’s dedication to the project, creativity and skill in developing on-site, clean energy in the context of the bustling Reston Town Center,…
With zero in advance investments, American companies can optimize energy costs, improve uptime and access new income flows under the Battery Energy Storage System-a-A-Service (Bessaas) model. May 30, 2025 Brian Publicover By PV Magazine USA Meet the Bessaas model. Under this approach, companies have access to energy storage behind the meter via a subscription -based model with which they can prevent significant capital expenses, while still providing the benefits of battery storage. “What you have seen in recent years is really an increased focus on resilience of the energy system as an operational necessity,” said Matthew Wise, the vice -president…
Intersolar & Energy Storage Noord -Arikika (Iesna) now accepts applications for his sixth annual Solar games Competition held on 18-20 February 2026 in the San Diego Convention Center. The Solar Games Tasks teams with the construction of residential solar storage systems – including solar modules, racks, inverters, battery storage and other components – live in a stadium institution in the exhibition hall. The 2026 competition will include new challenges and tests that still have to be announced, with competing teams assessed on installation quality, safety, speed and other criteria while they go through the tournament. The winning team is appointed…
