As diesel prices soar and rural electrification efforts accelerate, off-grid solar-storage systems are revolutionizing energy access across emerging economies. A recent World Bank study reveals that hybrid solar-diesel installations have slashed fossil fuel consumption by 70% in regions like Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America—translating to $12B in annual savings and 45...
Recently, the weather in the south seems to be "crazy". Just after enjoying two days of "spring", the temperature dropped sharply and I had to put on my down jacket. Is this "late spring cold"? Not only in the south, but also in Mohe, the far north of China, which is the north by traditional standards, has also ushered in its "late spring cold" - minus 43℃. "People say that the north of the desert...
France has revised down its solar PV target by 2035 from 100GW to 90GW in its latest Multiannual Energy Programme (PPE3). In the latest draft, which is open to consultation (in French) until April 05, the French government has revised its targets from 75-100GW – set in November 2024 – by 2035 to 65-90GW. By 2030, the country expects to reach 54GW of installed solar PV. To reach ...
The Chinese people's "volume" is reflected in all walks of life. In the first quarter of 2025, the ceramic industry faced an unprecedented "price war". Manufacturing is always similar, "Only brand companies are qualified to reduce prices. If there is no brand awareness, no one will care about you even if you reduce prices." According to relevant data, the ceramic industry contributes 1% of my coun...
Earthquakes are among the most unpredictable and devastating natural disasters, capable of crippling infrastructure, disrupting power grids, and leaving communities in darkness for days or even weeks. As solar-plus-storage systems gain traction worldwide, questions arise about their vulnerability to seismic events—and, more importantly, their potential to serve as lifelines during recovery. ...
