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...
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...
Out of cybersecurity concerns, members of the European Parliament have urged the European Commission to restrict Chinese solar inverter manufacturers from accessing the EU's energy infrastructure. In an open letter to European Commission Executive Vice-President Henna Virkkunen and Energy and Housing Commissioner Dan Jørgensen, 30 MEPs called for "immediate and binding measures" to p...
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...
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...
Germany has adjusted the price cap for its 2026 rooftop solar PV system tenders to €0.10/kWh (approximately US$0.117/kWh). This cap is slightly lower than the €0.104/kWh cap set for 2025 rooftop solar PV tenders, but still higher than the average price in this year's tenders. The average price of tenders held in the first quarter of 2025 was €0.091/kWh, with a winning ...
