By contributing author March 31, 2025 Carports are just logical. Of the 21.4 GWs Zonne -Zon to date, according to Wood Mackenzie, between 10% and 15% are built on top of carports. The demand for this efficient use of space continues to rise – generate clean energy while shielding cars against the elements. A 2012 study from the US Geological Survey shows that parking spaces cover almost half a percent of the total land surface of America-accident 13,778 square miles. If we were to add PV on top of that entire area, the US would enjoy nearly 500 GW extra…

Scientists in Japan have a field experiment performed in rice plantations that organize Agrivoltaic systems and have discovered that rice growth can be influenced by reduced biomass and reduced panel number. However, their analysis has also shown that gross returns in lowland rice -agrivoltaisies can be 14 times higher than rice growth without PV. April 1, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from the University of Tokyo in Japan have conducted a six-year field experiment using an Agrivoltaic system with lowland rice that grows underneath. The trial period was carried out in Chikusei, a city in East Japan, between 2018 and 2023.…

Energy Island Power, a German startup, has developed a connecting kit with which owners of electric vehicles can use the electricity of their car to support the energy needs of the home by integrating with the solar converter and the home grid. April 1, 2025 Cornelia Lichner By PV Magazine Germany After a sunny winter day, an electric vehicle and home battery can be fully charged. However, the storage capacity in the house decreases at night, forcing the operator to remove power from the grid despite unused solar energy. Many EV-owners are looking for bidirectional charging or vehicle-to-home (V2H), but…

Renolit Ondex says that his PVC-based mounting system is lighter and is more impact-resistant than metal or fiber cement supports, while also helps to lower the PV module temperatures. March 31, 2025 Francois Puthod By PV Magazine France At agricultural and industrial locations, where every roof can generate energy, unsuitable structures or high reinforcement costs can often hinder the installation of the solar panel. The French plastic plate provider Renolit Ondex has developed a mounting system that allows superponated installation to add to the roof without adding weight. The system uses bi-oriented polyvinyl chloride (PVC) panels, manufactured by a patented…
