Photovoltaics for atmospheric water harvesting

A scientist in Turkey has simulated eight PV-supported hybrid atmospheric water harvesting systems and compared their performances. They were all considered to operate with R1233zd(E), R1234yf, and R600a, as well as R32 refrigerants. The required PV system size was as low as 20 m2.

Risen Energy hits 740 W average for mass-produced HJT solar module

Waaree Renewable Technologies has received a Letter of Award (LOA) for the execution of a 21 MW AC (29.4 MW DC) ground-mounted solar power project under the Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana 2.0.

Enfinity closes $245 million for 22 GW solar-storage portfolio

Enfinity Global has secured a $245 million credit facility expansion to fund development, construction, and operation of its 22 GW solar and energy storage pipeline across the United States.

The impact of module pricing on solar project viability: Trends and predictions

India’s solar sector faces rising module costs due to recent developments, including the imposition of anti-dumping duties on solar glass and China’s reduction in export rebates on solar modules, impacting project viability. These shifts underline the delicate balance between promoting local manufacturing, pursuing geopolitical strategies, and navigating the economic realities of global trade.

Honeywell adds Li-ion Tamer for battery fire safety in buildings

Honeywell has acquired the Li-ion Tamer business from Nexceris, a leader in off-gas detection technology for lithium-ion batteries. Li-ion Tamer’s early warning technology detects battery off-gassing, which typically precedes thermal runaway, providing facilities with vital time to intervene before a battery fire starts.

Hindustan Zinc’s silver segment set to drive profit growth on robust PV-led demand: YES Securities

Hindustan Zinc Ltd’s silver segment has emerged as a key earnings pillar with global silver supply under pressure and rising industrial demand—particularly from photovoltaic (PV) cell manufacturing.

VGF incentive cut may raise BESS tariffs by 10%, but impact likely temporary: SBICAPS

A new report by SBICAPS anticipates that the incentive cut under the second phase of the viability gap funding (VGF) scheme for standalone battery energy storage systems (BESS) could lead to a tariff increase of around 10%. However, it adds, this increase is manageable and could be absorbed in the coming months as capex costs continue to decline.
