The truck, which has successfully completed…
The tandem device is based on a lower thin film heterojunction cell that can bend and an upper perovskiet cell that can be manufactured with a low temperature process to prevent damage. It achieved the highest efficiency that has ever been registered so far for a flexible perovskiet-silicon tandem solar cell. April 25, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Researchers from Tokyo City University have manufactured a flexible tandem solar cell based on a top semi-transparent reverse perovskiet cell and a flexible soil thin-film silicon heterojunction (HJT) PV device. “Stable and flexible silicon hetero junctions can be manufactured by thinning silicon, making the…

The Return Return Return of the Dutch Energy has started to build the 100 MW/200 MWh Battery Energy storage system in Waddinxveen, which will be the first project of the size to connect to the high-voltage network toes in 2026. April 24, 2025 Mariha Maisch By ESS News Return has launched construction works on the 100 MW / 200 MWH Antares Battery Energy Storage System (Bess) in Waddinxveen, in Western Netherlands. The project will go live in mid -2026 and play a crucial role in stabilizing the Dutch grid. Once the assignment is given, the Antares project will be the…
A team of researchers based in Japan and Sweden has found a link between higher feed-in rates and increased capital expenditure of solar projects in Japan. They suggest that this may have led to a lack of incentive for developers to innovate or lower costs, in turn increase expenses and to hinder the long -term competitiveness. April 24, 2025 Patrick Jowett An international research team has linked higher feed-in rates (Fits) Japan To higher levels of capital expenditure (Capex) in solar projects. The research paper, “How high feed-in rates have influenced the capital costs of solar PV in Japan”Available in…
OFF-GRID solar investments fell by 30% in 2024, with hardest business and technology technology hardest, says Gogla. The Global Association for the off-grid solar energy industry adds that upscaling has attracted 77% of the invested almost $ 300 million, indicating a stronger commercial viability in adult players. April 24, 2025 Patrick Jowett The total investments in off-grid sun companies in 2024 achieved almost $ 300 million, according to Gogla, the Global Association for the off-grid solar energy industry. The 2024 investment database showed a decrease of 30% compared to 2023. Gogla said that the recession was the most difficult at…
Beekeeping and solar energy are a natural match, working together to support agriculture and environmental sustainability. As beekeepers face challenges like habitat loss, climate change, and rising energy costs, solar power offers a reliable and eco-friendly solution. With the ability to power hive monitoring systems, honey extraction equipment, and protective fencing—especially in remote areas where electricity is scarce—solar energy is revolutionizing modern beekeeping. By harnessing the sun’s power, beekeepers can create more efficient, self-sustaining operations that benefit both their hives and the planet. The integration of solar technology into beekeeping practices has gained momentum in recent years. Across the world…
The Tri County Community Solar Array in Delanco, New Jersey – developed by Soltage. The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) has approved an expansion of New Jersey’s Community Solar Energy Program (CSEP) by opening a 250 MW capacity block. Since the first capacity allocation of the CSEP in November 2023, more than 500 MW of the community projects in the entire state have registered in the program. “The National Solar Energy program of New Jersey has and will continue to deliver millions in cost savings for those participating,” said Christine Guhl-Sadovy, president of the New Jersey Board of…
