Grew Energy has started building a 3.2 GW ingot-module factory in India. The facility will produce 2.8 GW of ingots, wafers, and cells per year, along with 3.2 GW of high-efficiency PV modules.
A group of scientists in Thailand has outlined a new approach to avoid oversizing and overvoltage in energy markets applying volt-watt droop curtailment strategies. The novel methodology leads to a reduction in a PV system’s net present value but also increases its levelized cost of energy.
The European Commission has shared updated documents with its member states for speeding up permitting procedures and designing auctions for renewables. It includes the use of non-price criteria in auctions, which the commission says will allow higher value-added projects to be rewarded.
