Efficient solar energy storage is a fundamental pillar of the energy transition: allowing flexible renewable energy production and guaranteeing its integration into the grid. Electricity can be easily generated, transported and transformed. However, up until now it has not been possible to store it in a practical, easy and cost-effective way. This means that electricity needs to be generated conti...
With the rise of industrial and commercial electricity prices, the gradual process of industrial and commercial rooftop distributed solar panel power plants has become an important direction for future photovoltaic development. On the one hand, it helps enterprises reduce operating costs and improve efficiency, and on the other hand, it can contribute to the development of clean energy in the coun...
EDF Renewables North America has signed a 15-year 332MWdc Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA) with McDonald's USA. The power will come from the Apollo solar project in Texas, which is expected to come online in June 2024. After completion, the project can produce 619,000MWh of clean energy per year. In addition, the VPPA with EDF Renewables will bring McDonald's closer to its 2030 emissions re...
This is by far one of the most frequently asked questions by would-be owners of solar energy systems. It’s only natural for UK residents to wonder whether solar panels produce energy in the winter. How long will solar panels continue to generate energy when the temperatures drop and the skies darken? In a place like the United Kingdom, where the winter is only three months long but might fee...
At 18:16 on November 18, 2022, the largest single centralized (shared) energy storage power station in Hubei Province will be fully connected to the grid for power generation! The solar project covers an area of more than 20 acres, with a total installed capacity of 60MW/120MWh. The solar energy storage system includes two types: liquid cooling (capacity 30MW/61.9MWh) and air cooling (capacity 30....
Germany-based Solmax has developed a reflective membrane made of polyethylene resins and coated with a thin white polyethylene layer that reflects ultraviolet (UV) rays. The company claims the membrane can increase the energy yield of a bifacial solar panel project by between 5% and 20%, depending on the plant configuration. Germany-based company Solmax Geosynthetics GmbH, which supplies “ge...
On February 16, 2023, the seminar on the development review and prospect of the photovoltaic industry in 2022 sponsored by the China Photovoltaic Industry Association was successfully held.
