Imagine that you install solar panels on your roof, ready to harness the sun’s energy – energy that has freely bathed our planet for billions of years. Then your neighbor builds a three-story addition, casting your panels in shadow and reducing your solar access by 40%. Who has the right to that sunlight? Your neighbor argues they can build on their property as they please. You maintain that they’re stealing your access to an essential resource. But can anyone truly own sunlight? This isn’t just a hypothetical scenario. As solar adoption accelerates across the world, questions about solar rights and…
Florida Municipal Utility OUC recently celebrated the big opening of the largest solar energy center in its history. The 149-MW project, located to the east of St. Cloud at two separate locations of more than 600 hectares, will be more than double the existing solar capacity of OUC. The addition of Harmony II and Storey Bend Solar Energy Centers brings the total capacity of OUC’s Solar Energy Portfolio to 271.5 MW -which produces sufficient solar energy to feed 50,000 typical OUC houses. On April 10, leaders of OUC, AdventHealth and Comcast NBCUIVERSAL gathered in Osceola County to reveal the Harmony…
As the budget consent role rolls, four extra members of the congress have written a letter to the majority leader John Thune of the Senate question to protect him from protecting the IRA. The last letter from senators Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Thom Tillis (R-FL), John Curtis (R-UT) and Jerry Moran (R-KS) follows a similar letter of 9 March to the chairman of the Huiscommissie for Days and resources signed by 21 Republican representatives. “Many American companies have made substantial investments in domestic energy production and infrastructure based on the current energy tax framework,” the senators write. “A wholesale impact, or…
This expansion comes at a critical moment for the American solar industry with a lot of uncertainty about supply chains and pressure to increase domestic output. April 10, 2025 Anne Fischer By PV Magazine USA Where Energies, a solar manufacturer based in India, is planning to expand its production capacity in the United States. The first American production of the company was announced in 2024 When it said it invested $ 1 billion in a solar cells and modules in Brookshire, Texas, just outside Houston. Where said that the new expansion will add a capacity of 1.6 GW, so that…
The Contourglobal site has a storage capacity of six hours in addition to 221 MW capacity for generating solar energy. It is located in Noord -Chili and is part of a portfolio that was taken from the Spain’s Grenergy last year.

The Chinese manufacturer said that his new heat pump system can deliver continuously and stable hot water to 75 ° C. At a temperature between 35 ° C and 55 ° C, the new product is said to reach a seasonal performance coefficient (SCOP) from 4.6 to 5.23, with COP values ranging from 3.86 to 5.63. April 10, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Chinese DC -Omverter Heat pump manufacturer Amitime has launched a new heat pump system for residential applications. “The Ecostar Pro series has excellent and excellent performance,” the company said in a statement. “It can deliver continuous and stable…
Solar panels from Moon Dust can cause a revolution in Lunar Energy Supply In an important progress for the durability of the moon, scientists have manufactured solar cells with the help of simulated moon fabric, and offer a lightweight, radiation -resistant energy source for future moon missions. The research, published on 3 April in Device, a diary of Cell Press, outlines a new approach that can drastically reduce the need to drastically reduce the earth’s extensive materials. “Current space quality solar cells can achieve 30% to 40% efficiency, but they have substantial costs in both dollars and mass,” explains Felix…
Scientists from the Korea Institute of Energy Research claim that they have reached the highest efficiency ever that has ever been reported for a perovskiet-cigs tandem solar cell with flexible, lightweight architecture. The device also appeared to achieve “excellent” sustainability. April 10, 2025 Emiliano Bellini The Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) announced that it achieved a power conversion of 23.64% for a tandem solar cell based on a topperovskiet device and a soil cell based on copper, indium, gallium and diselenide (CIGS) technology. The result is a world record for lightweight, flexible Tandem Perovskite-Sigitarian devices, the research group said,…
