Scientists have developed new porous ceramics for solar energy applications using low-viscosity ink with a high cerium content. These improvements have led to higher temperatures and, as a result, more efficient fuel generation.
[pdf] Supply chain IoT data company ORBCOMM has launched a new solar-powered asset tracking system that that can be used to monitor intermodal containers and other transportation assets for operational visibility.
[pdf] Individual solar panels in New Zealand cost around $230 for a 440W panel. However, the total system cost includes inverters, mounting systems, and installation.
[pdf] The project uses bifacial solar panels—a first in Central Asia—that capture sunlight from both sides. These panels generate 15-20% more energy than traditional models, crucial in Ashgabat''s dusty environment. Maintenance? Drones with AI-powered cleaning systems handle panel upkeep monthly.
[pdf] Leclanché provides battery energy storage system for largest solar and storage project in the Caribbean, construction starting in 2024
[pdf] This piece breaks down who qualifies (hint: standard BESS gets €250/kWh, grid-forming systems score €300/kWh), how to navigate the application maze (deadline July 15, 2025 —mark it!), and why regions like Andalusia (sitting on €311M) are the place to be.
