The Chinese manufacturer has upgraded its Infinite ABC solar module series with four new product versions. It claims the new modules are the world’s first 500 W panels measuring less than 2 m2.
Indian researchers have developed a Sudoku-based technique to reduce power losses in PV systems operating under partial shading. They claim the method increases energy efficiency and revenue generation more than conventional reconfiguration techniques.
An international research team has tested a floating PV system with a “soft-connected” configuration under offshore conditions, using six modular pontoons linked by elastic bar elements to simulate mooring lines and connection ropes.
An international research team has conducted an extensive overview of bifacial solar modules from 39 countries. Their analysis took into account the best of the median values indicated in the product specifications and found that heterojunction and back-contact panels provide the best parameters.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer ISE have combined indoor and outdoor testing to understand and quantify degradation processes in TOPCon solar panels. The novel methodology is intended to provide data for validating and improving stress laboratory protocols.
Japanese chemical company Tokuyama Corporation and South Korea-based polysilicon producer OCI have begun construction of a 10,000 metric tons polysilicon factory in Malaysia.
The US Department of Commerce (DoC) says it will investigate the potential for export restrictions by foreign countries, as well as their ability to “weaponize” their control over supplies of polysilicon.
Testing conducted by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin in Germany has shown that perovskite solar cells operating at high latitudes in Europe may suffer from higher performance losses in winter compared to conventional PV devices. The scientists warned, however, that at lower latitudes this seasonality may be less pronounced.
Chinese companies made up nine of the 10 largest global inverter suppliers in 2024, with total inverter shipments reaching 589 GW (AC), according to Wood Mackenzie.
In a new scientific paper published in nature, the Chinese manufacturer presented a new tandem perovskite-silicon solar cell based on a bottom cell with a heterojunction design. It also used a new type of self-assembled monolayer that reportedly reduces non-radiative recombination and increases cell efficiency.
