The transaction adds 1 GW capacity to the Eku portfolio. Image: Eku Energy Battery Energy Storage System (Bess) Firm EKU Energy has taken over the Bess portfolio from Bluestone Energy. Eku Energy has adopted seven planned Bess projects from renewable energy company Bluestone Energy with a combined pipeline capacity of 1GW/2GWH. These include a 98 MW/196MWH project in Leatherhead, Surrey, the 98 MW/196MWH Sturts Farm Project in Dorset and two 240 MW projects in Ninfield, East Sussex and Rochester in Kent. The transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of this year. Bluestone Energy and Eku Energy…
Danish researchers have analyzed fundamental material properties of Selenium solar cells and have discovered that their potentially is higher than is generally assumed. They used the Carrier dissolved photo-hall analysis to tackle discrepancies and to reproduce the experimental power drainage and external quantity efficiency measurements. April 15, 2025 Emiliano Bellini A group of scientists from the Technical University of Denmark has carried out a series of simulations to understand the Opto -electronic properties and drag dynamics of selenium solar cells and have discovered that Mobility for carriers in Selenium are considerably promising than general thinking. “This time we went one…
The future site of the Coalburn Bess, which will be optimized by SSE Energy Markets. Image: Alcemi. SSE Energy Markets has concluded a deal with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) to optimize two battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects in Scotland. SSE Energy Markets will optimize the 500 MW Devilla project, located in Kincardine, near FIFE, as well as the 500 MW Coalburn 2 project in South Lanarkshire. SSE Energy Markets had previously agreed to optimize COPs Coalburn 1, the first phase of 500 MW of the Coalburn development, which is on top of a former coal mine. Both projects are…
The Danae heat pump system is conceived for industrial applications and is available in 10 versions with cooling capacities ranging from 22.1 kW to 156.9 kW and heating capacities of 24.8 kW and 181.6 kW. April 15, 2025 Emiliano Bellini Italian heating and cooling specialist Tecnofreddo and Italy-based compressor manufacturer Frascold have launched a propane (R290) heat pump for applications that require increased temperatures. The Danae heat pump system is based on the ATEX-HT compressors developed by Frascold and is said to be able to reach a temperature of 80 C. “These compessors have been built to maintain high reliability…

Longi announced that it has achieved a upgraded Hi-MO 9-sun panel with return contact “HPBC 2.0” technology 24.8% efficiency with a maximum capacity of 670 W. By integrating zero bus with half a cell architecture, Longi was able to stimulate the power of the modules by 10 W. The Back contact Hi-MO 9 provides 1.5% more better efficiency than top-con brands. In addition, Longi has announced that it has achieved 27.81% efficiency for its self-developed heterojunction intercourse connected back contact (HIBC) solar cells, as certified by the German ISFH (Institute for Solar Energy Research Hamelin). To further strengthen the market…
By PV Magazine USA Solar projects are often supposed to be quiet, but noise of inverters, transformers and energy storage systems can be difficult to repair if they are not tackled during the design phase, and even result in reputation damage to the solar industry. “The idea that solar projects do not create noise is not correct” PV Magazine USA. “All solar sites need a noise analysis.” In solar installations, central inverters and substation transformers are the dominant source of sound, and “inverters are the most problematic,” said Bahtian. Inverters and transformers produce low -frequency sounds that have longer wavelengths.…
