An international team has developed a new technique to recycle Perovskiet sun cells (PSC) on glass substrates using a water-based solution. Tests showed that the recycled cells were just as efficient and stable as the original devices. February 19, 2025 Valerie Thompson Scientists led by Linköping University and Cornell University have proposed a new technique to recycle Perovskiet sun cells on glass substrates using a water-based solution. The new approach is described as efficient and stable as the original devices in the study. “We wanted to work on recycling, because we care about the resources and the environment. At the…
Timberline Solar ES 2 Three years after first unveiling a nailable solar shingle to the market, GAF Energy today launches its second evolution of the Timberline Solar product. Timberline Solar ES 2 delivers 23% more power than its predecessor — 57 W per shingle. “Timberline Solar ES 2 represents everything we’ve learned about solar roofing, enhanced by extensive feedback from contractors and homeowners. It’s an innovation that delivers a solar shingle that is more powerful, even easier to install and more versatile than ever before,” said Martin DeBono, President of GAF Energy.

Scientists in Indonesia have investigated early operational defects in a 24.9 MW Solar -PV system in Sumatra and have identified hotspot formation as the dominant defect. They also detected 282 cases of glass cracks, 350 cases of junction box errors and shadow effects linked to module defects. February 19, 2025 Lior Kahana Researchers from the University of Surabaya of Indonesia have conducted an investigation into the early operational defects of a PV factory of 24.9 MW on the Sumatra Island of West -Indonesia. The analysis started in August 2022, when the facility went online, and ended in August 2024. “The…
By Brad Kramer February 18, 2025 Organic photovoltaic (OP) Technology Pioneer Next energy technologies has completed an upgrade of its pilot production line to produce 40-x 60-inch laminated transparent power-generating windows with the help of its unique following Coating and production process. These 40-x 60-inch units are the largest transparent over-windows that are produced all over the world. They are proof of the scalability of Next technology with the help of automated slot-die-coating production techniques. This pilot production marks an important step to enable the glass industry to produce full glass area glass for clean, solar energy-producing facades. Next OPG…
Credit: Adobe Stock On February 19, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) announced the publication of the power output of its electric vehicles (EVSE), whereby the technical parameters are defined to enable electric vehicles to use their vehicles as mobile energy storage units and surplus Energy back to the grid. The standard outlines characteristics for equipment to enable two-way or bidirectional charging, in contrast to the traditional one-way flow of electricity to the vehicle, so that electric vehicles can be effectively transferred to the grid. The standard defines characteristics in important domains, electric, communication and cyber security, for allowing power…
A Nexamp project in New Jersey. The American community market of the United States has installed a record -breaking 1.7 GWDC of capacity in 2024, an increase of 35% compared to 2023, according to a New report Released by Wood Mackenzie in collaboration with the Coalition for Community Solar Access (CCSA). With policy uncertainty at both national and national level, however, long -term growth is in balance. According to the reportLast year’s growth was led by New York, Maine and Illinois. All three States break annual archives and accounted for 83% of the national volumes. Cumulative Community -Zonne -installations now…
