The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) revised antidumping and countervailing duties (AD/CVDs) on Vietnamese and Malaysian solar products in December 2024. The move has reshaped the non-Chinese supply chain, with further use of tariffs likely under the new administration, explains InfoLink’s Corrine Lin.
The manufacturer has expanded its Ecodan R290 heat pump series with three new products. The systems use propane (R290) as the refrigerant and can purportedly deliver flow temperatures of up to 75 C.
An international research team has developed a new machine that utilizes shockwaves to separate the different materials of a PV module. Chemical processes can be further used to extract silicon and silver. Results show the recovery of more than 99.5% of the original weight of the panels.
Researchers at Cornell University in the U.S. have developed a novel optimization model for agrivoltaic site design and benefits, which was demonstrated using irrigation-optimization relative to economic and environmental goals.
The Chinese manufacturer said its new bifacial module features a thicker 35 mm frame and 2.5 mm fully tempered glass on both sides. It has a power conversion efficiency of 23.3% and a temperature coefficient of -0.29%/C.
German scientists believe that power generation for future habitats on the moon could be achieved by manufacturing halide perovskite cells locally, using regolith-based moonglass.
A team of researchers have analyzed the impact of different cloud types on solar irradiance predictions. They found prediction models that factor in the physics of how clouds interact with sunlight are more accurate than models that do not consider cloud types.
The Chinese manufacturer was able to increase the panel efficiency from 18.04% to 19.04% in 16 months. The panel has a size of 2,005 mm x 1,005 mm x 35 mm and a weight of 34.5 kg.
Researchers in China have sought to increase the efficiency of heterojunction solar cell through a buffer layer made of indium tin oxide. This innovation reportedly resulted in a 0.1% efficiency increase deriving from optimized short-circuit current density and fill factor.
US scientists have developed a lithium-ion battery for electric vehicles that enables high range and fast charging in cold weather. The battery uses a single-ion conducting glassy solid electrolyte coating and does not require changes to chemistries or production processes.
