Recently, the IEA released the "Global Photovoltaic Market Overview in 2025" report. Some of the data and analysis in it are quite referenceable. Now I share them as follows. Let's review the data of the past year. The IEA report stated that by the end of 2024, the global photovoltaic installed capacity will reach 602GW, and the cumulative capacity will increase significantly to more than 2...
On May 25, the National New Energy Storage Pilot Demonstration Project - Southern Power Grid Baochi Energy Storage Station was put into operation in Wenshan Prefecture, Yunnan. This is the first large-scale lithium-sodium hybrid energy storage station in China, which realizes the "one-station application" of various new grid-building energy storage technologies, while ensuring the stable access of...
On August 2, China’s National Energy Administration released the PV power construction data for H1 2025. The figures show that over the past six months, China has added 211.61GW of new PV capacity, more than doubling last year’s figures when installs reached 102.5GW in H1 2024. Broken down by segment, installs were up year-on-year, with the sharpest increase from commercial and ...
Imagine a world where your commercial parking lot does more than just shield cars from the elements. What if it became a dynamic, revenue-generating asset, slashing energy bills and positioning your company as a leader in sustainability? This is no longer a futuristic concept but a present-day reality made possible by integrated solar carport and battery storage (PV-storage) systems. This innovati...
When discussing energy storage projects, the terms MW and MWh appear frequently. Many people are confused by these two abbreviations: what exactly do they mean and what's the difference? Simply put, MW is a unit of power, and MWh is a unit of energy. In power systems, MW and MWh are core metrics for describing system capabilities. Understanding the difference between these two concepts is as cruci...
Designing a battery energy storage system (BESS) is a critical step toward achieving energy independence, optimizing renewable energy use, and ensuring backup power. Whether for residential, commercial, or industrial applications, a well-designed BESS can significantly reduce electricity costs, enhance grid stability, and contribute to a sustainable future. In this blog, we’ll walk through t...
Common battery packs generally use three cooling methods: liquid cooling, air cooling, and natural cooling. Battery cells are quite sensitive to temperature, with an optimal operating temperature generally between 15 and 35°C. Temperature variations cause varying degrees of capacity reduction in lithium batteries; specifically, at -10°C, usable capacity is 70%; at 0°C, it's 85%; and at...
User-side energy storage, as the name suggests, is an energy storage system installed on the electricity user's side, widely used in industrial and commercial parks, high-energy-consuming enterprises, and residential communities. It, along with power-side energy storage and grid-side energy storage, constitutes the three major application areas of energy storage, but its **core characterist...
Recently, China's first large-capacity all-solid-state battery production line has been completed and entered the small-batch testing and production stage. So, what exactly is an all-solid-state battery? Why is it considered a key driver of the future development of the new energy vehicle industry? Today, let's take a closer look at the several rounds of upgrades all-solid-state batteries h...
