According to the Polish Energy Regulatory Office (URE), Poland awarded 1.6GW of solar PV projects in this year's renewable energy tender. A total of 129 projects larger than 1 MW were awarded, of which 126 were solar PV projects and the remaining 3 were wind power projects. In this tender, although nearly 8.9 billion Polish zlotys (about 2.44 billion US dollars) were allocated to purchase 3...
The European Commission recently announced the initiation of a second anti-dumping and countervailing duty sunset review investigation into solar glass originating in China, following applications filed by Interfloat Group, i.e., Interfloat Corporation, and GMB Glasmanufaktur Brandenburg GmbH on April 18 and 19, 2025. The investigation will examine whether the damage caused by dumping and subsidie...
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...
Two of the major European solar trade associations, the European Solar Manufacturing Council (ESMC) and SolarPower Europe (SPE), have called for EU policymakers to take measures to support European solar manufacturing. In a joint letter to the European Commission and Ministers of the Competitiveness Council ahead of a solar PV ministerial meeting on 30 September 2025, the two solar associat...
When we discuss today's energy revolution, "battery" is undoubtedly one of the core keywords. From speeding electric cars to the large-scale energy storage power stations silently supporting the power grid, battery technology is changing our lives at an unprecedented pace. However, did you know that the batteries that power electric cars and those used to store wind and solar energy, while both ca...
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...
In the first nine months of this year, global solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation reached 2109.76 TWh, exceeding the total solar power generation for the entire year of 2024. This data comes from the "Third Quarter Global Electricity Report" released today by the think tank Ember Climate. In the first nine months of this year, global solar power generation increased by 498 TWh compared...
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...
