The Nigerian government is planning to prohibit the import of solar panels to stimulate domestic production, but the Center for the Promotion of Private Enterprise, a consulting firm based in Lagos, warns that the country is not prepared for such a limitation. April 2, 2025 Patrick Jowett The government of Nigeria Plans to prohibit the import of solar panel to stimulate local production. Local media have reported that the technological minister of the country Uche Nnaji unveiled the plan during an interview last week. NNAJI said the move will stimulate the clean energy transition from Nigeria, and adds that the…
Westwood Global Energy Group says that only 17% of the hydrogen projects of the European Union will improve without intervention, while SmartEnergy says that Spain Orange.bat Project has erased an important environmental nuisance and is launched in May 2028. April 2, 2025 Sergio Matalucci Westwood Global Energy Group In a new report said that only 17% of the planned project pipeline of the European Union will continue without market intervention, which warns that the gap between ambition and reality will increase. “The analysis points to a European pipeline under tension, because legal delays, increased costs and a weak demand heavily…
American scientists have developed a lithium ion battery for electric vehicles that make high range and quickly charging possible in cold weather. The battery uses a single-ion that carries out glass-like fixed electrolyto-coating and requires no changes in chemistry or production processes. April 2, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from the University of Michigan have developed a lithium ion battery (LIB) for electric vehicles (EVs), with only 10 minutes of charge to full temperatures as low as -10 C. The new technology has a license and must be commercialized by the arbor -battery innovations of Michigan. “This is quickly charging without…
The nation recently surpassed the 18GW threshold for installed PV capacity. Image: Res On April 1, between 12:30 and 13:00, Groot -Britain insured a new maximum record of Solar generation of 12.2 GW. The new record is when March 2025 was considered by Office as the sunniest march since the records started in 1910, with 185.8 hours of sun -drenched everywhere. This was capitalized by the sun sector of the Nation, which recently exceeded the 18GW threshold for installed capacity. According to Sheffield Solar Live PV trackerWhose data was previously used to predict by the Operator of the National Energy…

Scientists in China have designed a self-insulated composite outdoor wall panel, in which a solar collector panel, PV panel and insulation card are integrated. The proposed experimental attitude is said to have a static payback period of 1.1 years. April 2, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from China have proposed a new self-informing composite outdoor wall panel for solar-self-inspired composite for applications in buildings. The system integrates a solar collector panel, PV panel and insulation card in a single unit to deliver hot air indoors. It is the fourth generation of this mechanism developed by the same group, which has now…
The earthquake of 7.9 Magnitude had consequences for the western regions of China that are good for around 50% of the total production capacity of the country in the Solar Wafer, which means that companies are forced to suspend production. April 2, 2025 Patrick Jowett The large-scale earthquake that Central Myanmar struck by the end of March disrupted the global solar supply chain, according to a statement from Jinkosolar. A spokesperson for the Chinese module manufacturer told PV -Magazine The earthquake of 7.9-magnitude had a “big impact” in the western regions of China, the primary waffle-producing area of the country,…
