As typhoons unleash their fury with howling winds and torrential rains, vast solar arrays—those symbols of green energy—face their ultimate test. Can these meticulously engineered systems withstand nature’s violent outburst? From the glass surfaces of photovoltaic panels to the metal skeletons of mounting structures, every component battles immense forces that threaten to dismant...
In the three months ending November 2025, US photovoltaic module prices remained stable at slightly above $0.28/watt, but this situation may be fragile due to the upcoming decision by the US solar industry regarding Section 232 compliance. These are the key findings of Anza's latest report on the US solar and battery energy storage (BESS) sector, released this week. The report notes that al...
Recently, with the successful conclusion of German Chancellor Merz's official visit to China, cooperation on energy transition and climate change has once again become a top priority in bilateral exchanges and development. As leading global pioneers in energy transition and key equipment suppliers, China and Germany engaged in in-depth dialogue in the field of new energy. This visit, led by...
A new study indicates that Europe's photovoltaic (PV) recycling capacity will lag behind projected waste volumes in the coming decades. The study, conducted by the University of Murcia and the EU Joint Research Centre, reveals a growing mismatch between projected PV waste flows and existing recycling infrastructure between 2030 and 2050. The study estimates that while the EU currently has a recycl...
French utility EDF has received a development consent order (DCO) from the UK government to build an 800MW solar PV plant in England. Located in Lincolnshire, the Springwell Solar project is developed by EDF’s British subsidiary EDF Power Solutions UK and UK-based developer Luminous Energy. The project will also be co-located with a battery energy storage system, however the capacity was not...
For a long time, the mention of deserts, Gobi, and wastelands conjured images of sandstorms, unsuitability for development, and even ecological governance challenges. Now, these barren lands are becoming a crucial battleground for China's new energy development. The plan proposes prioritizing the construction of wind and solar power bases in the "Three Norths" region (Northwest, North, and Northwe...
The safety of solar power systems has once again become a focal point of public attention. Just recently, a major fire broke out in the Springwood ward of Marden Hospital in North Yorkshire, England. When firefighters arrived, the entire building was engulfed in flames. Fortunately, all 15 patients were safely evacuated without injury. Subsequent investigations suggest that rooftop solar panels we...
