The Turkish authorities claim that they have found evidence of dumping plate practices by Chinese PV junction boxes and frames manufacturers, who reportedly caused considerable damage to domestic producers. May 26, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Turkey ministerie of Trade launched an anti-dumping study into Chinese connected connection boxes and aluminum frames used in solar modules. Local companies Ekinler Endüstri A.ş and Hatko Teknik Donanımlar Mümessillik Ve Ticaret A.ş requested the probe in junction boxesWhile Arslan Aluminum Inc., Lazer Solar Energy Aluminum Systems Inc. and Pantech Aluminum Inc. have submitted the request with regard to Module Frames. In two separate notifications…
Australian researchers have developed electrolysis systems that use urine and waste water from urine and waste water to generate hydrogen against “considerably lower” energy costs than traditional methods for water splitting. May 26, 2025 David Carroll By PV Magazine Australia Researchers from the University of Adelaide And the Australian Research Council of Excellence for Carbon Science and Innovation (COE-CSI) have created two electrolysis systems that use urine in urine and waste water to produce hydrogen, while electricity consumption is reduced by a maximum of 27% compared to hydrogen production on water. COE-CSI Chief Investigator Professor Yao Zheng said that the…
ZESCO has completed the 100 MW Chisamba Solar Farm in South Zambia and has launched plans for a second 100 MW phase on the site, now the home of the largest grid-connected tanning factory in Sub-Saharan Africa outside South Africa. May 26, 2025 Patrick Jowett State company Zesco has completed the 100 MW Chisamba Solar Farm in South Zambia. The project, invoiced as the largest solar facility connected to schedule in Zambia and the largest of its kind in Africa Bezuiden de Sahara outside South Africa, is now ready to be taken into use. According to a statement from the…
Solar on the roof with EV batteries could meet the majority of Japan’s Power A new analysis from the University of Tohoku shows that combining solar panels on the roof with battery storage of electric vehicles up to 85% of Japan’s electricity needs could be satisfactory and at the same time cut the carbon emissions by 87%. The study underlines a practical path for the local authorities of Japan to reach CO2 neutrality using existing roofs and vehicles instead of investing in expansive centralized systems. With limited land and growing demand for clean energy, Japan stands for unique limitations. Yet…
The Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems Isee (Fraunhofer ISE) has launched Diveo GmbH to plan and construct different types of Agrivoltaic facilities without concentrating on specific technologies. May 26, 2025 Sandra Enkhardt By PV Magazine Germany Researchers from Fraunhofer Isee have joined forces with an external team to set up Diveo GmbH. The startup will support farms in the planning, construction and monitoring of agrivoltaic facilities that are connected to the storage of battery energy. The current projects work as generation systems with grid or green energy storage. Pure green energy storage systems temporarily only store the solar power…
The Apollon PV Park has put into use a 3.3 MWH Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and Solar Project in a milestone for Cyprus. May 26, 2025 Tristan Rayner Image: Greg Montani, Pixabay By ESS News Cyprus has taken a step in the direction of modernizing his energy infrastructure with the commissioning of a 3.3 MWH Bess as part of the Apollon PV Park. Secret by the University of Cyprus, this is the largest battery project in the country so far and the first of its kind on this scale. The Bess is integrated with a 5 MWP solar installation…
A research team established at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory says that solar energy could have the lowest level of energy (LCOE) of all energy sources in South Korea by the early 2030s. May 26, 2025 Patrick Jowett According to researchers from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Solar will be the most cost -competitive energy source in South Korea in South Korea in South Korea. Their research paper, “Assessment of the level of energy in South Korea”Evaluates the LCOe and emphasizes costly processes of various technologies in the Republic of Korea from 2030 to 2050. Metrics integrated in LCOe analysis include accommodation…
By Brad Kramer May 26, 2025 This edition of Projects weekly Soluna’s plan to launch the first data center on solar energy with a project of 75 MW. In the meantime, New York has Gov. Kathy Hochul signed for 26 large-scale renewable energy projects in the state, ECA Solar and Luminace have developed a 6 MW Community Solar project in Delaware, Link Logistics and Reactivate have worked together to install Solar Panels on Link’s properties in the United States, Solvon of the United States has announced the United States-and-Ended States-Ended States, and and and for the United States, and and…
The Japanese Sekisui Solar Film and the Netherlands’ TNO have signed a declaration of intent to explore collaborations with regard to flexible perovskiet Zonne -PV. Discussions are started on a potential perovskite module factory in Brabant and the exchange of relevant information. May 26, 2025 Valerie Thompson The Japanese Sekisui Solar Film, part of Sekisui Chemical, The Brabant Development Agency (BOM), which serves the Dutch Province of Noord-Brabant, and the Dutch Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) have signed a declaration of intent in Osaka, Japan PV Solar PV-TECELLE. “With the signing of the declaration of intent, the parties involved…
Scientists in the United States have designed a microwire solar cell that is said to make the link of Singlet -Plending with silicon possible. The key to their performance was an interface that transfers the electrons and holes in succession in silicon instead of both at the same time. May 26, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Working with an effect that is known as Singlet Exciton Fission (SF), scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have demonstrated a new silicon solar cell concept that possibly the quantity efficiency limit for conventional PV devices could surpass. Singlet Exciton splitting is an effect…
