Solar panels add three-dimensional structure and complexity to an environment. They can provide animals shelter from predators and the elements, much like artificial reefs in lakes and oceans. They can also act as perch or nesting structures. Solar infrastructure also creates a mosaic of sun and shade patches – and so provide many “micro-habitats” for plants and animals. Research...
Photovoltaic power stations are built in wilderness, desert, and high-rise buildings, and need to face different natural disasters all year round. Among them, the most common are various hurricanes, typhoons, and tornadoes. According to the global wind distribution map, gales with wind speeds greater than 10 m/s cover more than 60% of the world's regions; over the past 160 years, more than 50% of ...
Israel’s Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure presented a national plan last week to deploy 800MW/3,200MWh of solar energy storage capacity, including Israel’s first large-scale storage facility. The plan covers the construction of four 200 MW/800 MWh facilities, to be installed in phases according to system needs, and to employ different energy storage technologies. The four faciliti...

As environmental issues have come to the forefront of the agenda for the British government, the ways in which renewable energy can be harnessed are also coming under closer scrutiny. When it comes to solar power, the idea of placing solar panels on agricultural land is being examined, tried and tested. But is it really a feasible experiment? Can we really rely on agricultural land for solar farms...
With the continuous deepening of international trade barriers and limited by import and export restrictions, the construction of factories in the United States has become a topic of concern for photovoltaic companies in the past two years. Data shows that from 2019 to 2021, the newly installed photovoltaic capacity in the United States was 13.3GW, 19.7GW, and 23.6GW, re...
On April 18th, the first 210 Supreme 670W series ultra-high power module of Trina Solar was successfully launched in the Nanchuan Industrial Park of Xining City, marking the official completion and production of the first phase of the 5GW photovoltaic module project of Trina Solar's Qinghai base. At the same time, it helped Xining City, Qinghai Province achieve a "zero breakthrough" ...
