Winaico has released a new Solar module series with glass glass in Europe and offers a model of 460 W and a completely black 450 W version built with monocrystalline N-type cells. The company established in Taiwan says that the modules focus on high efficient performance and sustainability. May 1, 2025 Patrick Jowett Taiwanese manufacturer Winaiico has launched a new series of glass glass modules for the European market. Initially it said that it would bring the new residential product to Europe in February, with an efficiency of 23.2%. The new WST-NCX48 series contains a 460 W Solar module and…
The Australian battery designer and manufacturer Powerplus Energy has unveiled a new all-in-one energy storage solution with a single phase of 7 kW-Omsoler and a stackable battery of 13.4 kWh. May 1, 2025 David Carroll By PV Magazine Australia Powerplus Energy said the Whisper-7 is a smart hybrid battery system with a 7 kW sun battery inverter and 13.4 kWh of battery storage, specially built for Australian houses. The Whispr-7 uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery and has cell packages from the Chinese manufacturer Catl. It has a nominal DC voltage of 409.6 V, ranging from 320 V to 460.8…
IPS has developed an 8.1 MWH Utility scale battery energy storage system (BESS) in a 20-foot container with an integrated 4 MW inverter. The Bulgarian manufacturer says that it wants to meet the growing demand for efficient, large -scale energy storage solutions. May 1, 2025 Lior Kahana IPS-in Bulgaria established storage manufacturer IPS has released a new Bess at the utility company with a nominal capacity of 8.1 MWh and an integrated 4 MW. The X-BESS 8 system is housed in a 20-foot container footprint equivalent and has liquid cooling. “On the Capex side, the compact, modular architecture may ensure…
Fotovoltaic roofs can deliver more than a third of the Vitoria Gastseiz energy needs In a new study by the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), researchers discovered that solar installations on the roof in Vitoria-Gasteiz can provide up to 38% of the annual electricity consumption of the city. The analysis emphasizes photovoltaic systems on the roof as an important strategy for renewable energy for urban low -carbon, especially when the availability of soil is limited. The research assessed the energy potential of roofs in the capital of Alava Araba and concluded that half of the total roof area is…
Researchers in Iran developed a passive cooling method for solar module using silicon carbide porous ceramics. In combination with phase change materials, the technology reportedly increases the performance of the panel by a maximum of 7.4%. May 1, 2025 Lior Kahana A group of researchers from the Iran’s University of Tehran has developed a porous ceramic silicon carbide (SIC) that, especially if used in combination with a phase change material (PCM), can lower the temperature of the solar module and increase its efficiency. PCMS absorb, store and release large amounts of latent heat over defined temperature ranges. They are often…
Cruachan II would be an extension of the existing 440 MW Crachan Pumped Storage Plant (photo). Image: Drax. Generator Drax has announced that it will not offer its Crachan II Pomped Hydro Energy Storage (Phes) project in the support mechanism for Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES). The British government recently launched the first window of its long-term energy storage and floor schedule for long-term energy storage to endorse income and to reduce the risk of investors for projects between 2030 and 2033, with applications that must be offered on 9 June 2025. Drax said it would not participate in this…
Researchers from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya in Spain evaluated 12 PV devices of 11 suppliers for use indoors, where different systems can be identified to feed external sensor nodes with a surface of 10 cm² and continue testing under natural interior light. May 1, 2025 Valerie Thompson Researchers from the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya in Spain evaluated a dozen indoor PV modules of eleven suppliers with the aim of identifying a PV-based diet for external sensor junctions with 10 cm2 available surface. The modules, some of which were prototypes, were based on perovskiet, monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon,…
The analysts noted that in particular one site within one month became the victim of three separate burglaries. Image: Ryan Searle via Unsplash. March and April saw a “significant increase” in thefts and crime in British solar projects, with 11 reported incidents compared to only three reported in February. The 11 incidents took place at seven locations in Dorset, Sussex, Essex, Derbantshire, Lancashire, Worcestershire and Staffordshire, according to intelligence and security company Derntech. They consisted of six thefts, two authorities of hostile exploration, two reported suspicious vehicles and one confirmed burglary, according to crime analysts at Derntech. The analysts noted…
Scientists in Sudan have called for the inclusion of PV -modulere cleaning activities in green building standards to tackle an important maintenance gap in renewable energy systems. It would focus on improved system performance in environments where there are dust and pollution persistent challenges. May 1, 2025 Lior Kahana Scientists from the Sudan’s National Energy Research Center and the Transilvania University of Braparenov from Romania have called for the inclusion of PV system cleaning in green audit and certification frameworks to maintain high power yields. The researchers have specifically recommended to add PV -modulere cleaning activities to five large green…
The company has announced to the installation partners that it will no longer produce products for the market for residential solar and storage market, but will continue to offer support for warranty and installation for existing and current projects. May 1, 2025 John Fitzgerald Weaver Panasonic will end his company on solar energy and battery storage, the company told its North -American installation partners in a letter of 28 April. The letter, signed by Naoki Kamo, president of Panasonic Eco Systems Noord -Amerika, was fully shared By an installation program on Reddit and partly Published on the website of the…
