Electricity generated from utility-scale solar photovoltaic is increasingly competitive with coal power in Asia amid plummeting capital costs – especially in China, Wood Mackenzie finds. Solar PV, balanced with battery-based energy storage, is becoming competitive with gas power already today – though Read More
The Government of Mexico has introduced an innovative approach to enhance the quality of life among its citizens, particularly targeting the most vulnerable groups. This initiative, part of a broader set of wellness programs, is not just focused on economic support but Read More
France has marked a significant milestone in its renewable energy journey by connecting approximately 955 MW of new photovoltaic (PV) systems to the grid in the last quarter of 2023, according to the Ministry of Ecological Transition. This surge in solar energy Read More

The Solar Energy Corp. of India (SECI) has invited bids to build 1.2 GW of wind-solar hybrid power projects on a build-own-operate basis anywhere in India. The projects must connect to the interstate transmission grid. Bidding closes on March 29. February 28, Read More
SIR: In the heart of Nigeria’s development dilemma lies an ironic paradox: a nation rich in potential yet plagued by persistent power outages. The narrative of Nigeria’s power sector is one of unfulfilled promises and missed opportunities, with the term ‘epileptic power Read More
CHICAGO, UNITED STATES, February 28, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Asia Pacific region has emerged as a colossus in the 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫. With a valuation of US$ 317.4 billion in 2022, the market is on a trajectory to reach an impressive US$ Read More
Though CSP and PV have similar efficiencies, there are a few notable differences between them when it comes to applications, costs, and storage capacity. The main difference between CSP and photovoltaics is that CSP uses the sun’s heat energy indirectly to create Read More
Indian researchers have proposed to build tandem solar cells based on a CIGS top cell and a bottom cell relying on a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) absorber. SWCNTs were previously used in solar research as an alternative to conventional metal grid contacts Read More
