At the beginning of 2024, the company completed the largest operational on the land mounted on the UK, with a 513.3 MWP portfolio from Toucan Energy. Image: Pixabay. Schroders Greencoat, the renewable manager Arm of Schroders Capital, has surpassed 2GW of operational soil mounting solar capacity in the UK. The milestone was reached with the energy of the Eynsham Solar site in West Oxfordshire. Greencoat, the renewable and energy transition infrastructure manager of the management giant Schroders activated by the VK head office, has more than 200 operational PV developments in the United Kingdom. At the beginning of 2024, the…

Star Catcher shows Space Energy Beaming Tech in Jacksonville Stadium Star Catcher Industries, Inc. (“Star Catcher”), a leader in the field of space-space energy transfer, has completed his first public demonstration of space-consuming technology. This milestone event, held in Everbank Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida, marks considerable progress in the direction of the development of a space -based energy network that is designed to offer uninterrupted power to satellites and space infrastructure.

The purchasing exercise has put on 67 storage companies for battery energy, but only six have emerged as winners. The average bid was on CNY 0.473/Wh ($ 65/kWh). March 24, 2025 Mariha Maisch Van Ess News Public tenders in China continue to demonstrate exceptionally low price levels for Lithium-ion phosphate (LFP) Battery energy storage systems (BESS). In the last tender, more than 80% of bidders quoted prices under CNY 0.5/Wh ($ 69/kWh), which emphasizes fierce competition in the largest Bess market in the world. On March 18, the Huadian group, one of the five largest state-owned companies in China, the…

An international research team has devised a dual-component controller for three-phase inverters who are said to be able to achieve faster location times, a shortened exceeding and more stable current tracking compared to conventional controllers. March 24, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A group of researchers led by Jouf University in Saudi Arabia has developed a dual-component controller for applications in three-phase two-stage solar inverters. The double component controller is based on a cascaded fractional order proportional integrated tilt (Fopit) for arranging the DC-left voltage between the two phases of the inverter and a fractional order proportional integral (Fopi) for arranging the…

March 24, 2025 Luis Ini Image: Luis González, Unsplash By PV Magazine Latam Panama installed 143.39 MW new PV capacity in 2024, according to the National Public Services Authority (ASEP). By the end of December, the total installed solar capacity of the country had reached 695.55 MW, accounting for 13.79% of the capacity of national electricity generation. The total installed capacity of Panama in 2024 amounted to 5,045.09 MW, including 2,165.97 MW…

Every minute, we lose forest land equivalent to 27 soccer fields. This staggering rate of deforestation threatens our planet’s biodiversity and  the very air we breathe. The United Nations reports that global forest loss has reached 420 million hectares since 1990—an area larger than the entire European Union. These numbers paint a stark picture of our planet’s declining green cover, with energy needs driving a significant portion of this loss. Breaking the Chain Traditional energy sourcing methods have long been enemies of forest preservation. In developing regions, up to 2.4 billion people rely directly on wood fuel for their daily…

Public support for solar energy has grown by 4% in the past year. Image: Red Zeppelin via Unsplash. New research commissioned by Solar Energy UK has shown that 77% of British public development of solar energy in their local area supports. The survey conducted by Copper Consultancy, investigates the attitude towards PV energy plants for solar energy, which shows that since 2023 there has been an increase of 4% in support for PV development on solar energy. The vast majority of respondents expressed support for solar development in their local area, where 77% said they “support” or “strong support”. The…

Researchers in Canada have compared strawberry growth with uniform lighting of semi-transparent thin-film Cadmium Telluride panels and non-uniform lighting of semi-transparent crystalline silicon modules. Their analysis considered metrics such as fresh weight, height, leaf count, chlorophyl content, soil temperature and humidity. March 24, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from the Western University of Canada have compared the growth of strawberries under Agrivoltaic panels with uniform lighting and with non-uniform lighting. For uniform lighting they used semi-transparent thin film Cadmium Telluride (CD-TE), and for the non-uniform lighting they used semitransparant crystalline silicon (C-Si), with rows of solar cells and transparent sun class…
