Solar Solutions: Bio-inspired approach creates tailor-made photovoltaic There is more to do with photovoltaic panels than the materials they include: the design itself can also stimulate the widespread acceptance of solar technology – or possibly reduce. Do it simply: most solar panels are not much to look at. And their flat, non -flexible composition means that they can only be applied to similar flat structures. But what if photovoltaic panels instead were a hinged, lightweight fabric that was aesthetically attractive and could wrap around complex shapes, even turned its shape to absorb sunlight better? Thus was born the idea for…

In a new weekly update for PV -MagazineSolcast, a DNV company, reports that February saw a stark contrast in solar conditions throughout Europe, with eastern regions that benefit from strong irradiation, while Western and southern areas are disappointing due to storms and persistent cloud coverings. February 28, 2025 Dissolved February saw a stark contrast in solar conditions in Europe, with Eastern regions that benefit from strong irradiation, while Western and southern areas were setbacks due to storms and persistent cloud cover, according to analysis using the analysis Solcast API. High pressure over Eastern Europe marked clear skies and an elevated…
Desert Garden United Church of Christ (UCC), in collaboration with Revolv, recently held a solar energy celebration for its new 47-KW solar array, format to generate 100% of the energy needs of the church. The celebration of the church in Sun City West, Arizona, included a ribbon cutting ceremony, short comments from the church pastor, installer Capital Energy and financier REWV. “Our decision to go solar energy represents our dedication to the preservation and protection of God’s beautiful creation by being good stewards of our environment and community,” said Pastor Bill or Desert Garden UCC. “We are honored to serve…
This week, women in Solar Europe (Wisu) give a voice to Dounia Ziyati, solar engineer at EDF Renewables. In women, she urges herself to imagine that they bloom in leading roles. “Today we witness women in uniforms who serve heavy machines on construction sites and bravely tackle risks frontally,” she explains. February 28, 2025 Women in Solar Europe (Wisu) The number of women attending solar energy rises and shows the growing presence in all disciplines, either in photovoltaic or thermal technologies. The sun sector stands out as a leader in gender representation, in which women actively participate in different stages…
Quidnet Energy has demonstrated its long -term geomechanical energy storage (ges) on the Megawattuur scale. The technology stores excess grid electricity by bringing water underground underground and later releasing to deliver reliable power. February 28, 2025 Anne Fischer By PV Magazine USA Quidnet -EnergyA specialist in long-term energy storage solutions for delivering Baseload Power has completed the demonstration and testing of his ges technology on the Megawattuur scale. Cheap long-term energy storage has been the holy grail in making intermittent solar energy as a baseload thermal generation. The patented ges technology from Quidnet Energy, in Houston, uses surplus electricity from…
IntertekA care provider in the industry has verified that Gamechange Solar’S Genius Tracker Single-Axis Solar Tracker System is compatible with approved components for the operation of a solar project at 2 kV. Genius Tracker was installed on a 5-MW project in the southeast with an electrical system of 2 kV. Credit: Gamechange Solar The transition from 1500 V to 2 kV technology improves electrical efficiency by increasing the voltage instead of electricity, reducing voltage drop and making more energy possible to achieve the inverter. This shift can reduce material costs, improve power treatment capacity and lower the level of a…
Construction is underway on a 50 MW solar project in the northeast of Ivory Coast. It is implemented by a project company that is fully owned by the Amea Power of the VAE. February 28, 2025 Patrick Jowett Dubai established developer Amea Power has broken the ground on a 50 MW solar project in the Ivory coast. The Bondoukou Solar PV project, located in the northeastern Gontougo region, is implemented by Amea Goutougo, a project company that is registered in the Ivory Coast and fully owned by Amea Power. The $ 60 million project is financed by the development banks…
Researchers from Fraunhofer Isee and Kaust built a Perovskiet-Silicon tandem solar cell that reportedly offers improved reproducibility. The device is based on self-assembled monola layers that result in low parasitic absorption and fast load extraction. February 28, 2025 Emiliano Bellini An international research team has developed a perovskiet-silicon tandem solar cell based on self-assembled monolaagen (SAMs) that improve the growth of the perovskiet and opto-electronic properties. “Self-assembled monola layers (SAMs) are currently used as state-of-the-art hole transport layers in perovskite-based solar cells, which bid a low parasitic absorption, fast load extraction and effective passion of the buried interface of the…
Innomotics, Eneco and Johnson Controls have ratified a large -scale heat pump in a municipal waste water treatment plant in Utrecht, the Netherlands. The system has four heat exchangers, each equipped with two compressors. February 28, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Nederlands Power Utility Eneco has commissioned an industrial heat pump in a municipal waste water treatment plant in Utrecht. The company said that the project is the largest heat pump system in the Netherlands. Project partners were the German machine provider Innomotics and Johnson Controls based in the US. “The system uses remaining heat of 65 million liters treated waste water…
