India’s Solex Energy commissions 800 MW TOPCon solar module production line

India’s Solex Energy says it has commissioned an 800 MW solar module production line for n-type, rectangular-cell tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) modules ranging from 585 W to 625 W.

A 920% tariff on anode materials from China ‘would throw the economics of U.S. storage out of whack’

Battery installations in the U.S. are threatened by the imposition of anti-dumping, countervailing duties on active anode materials. The supply chain for Active Anode Materials (AAM) is dominated by Chinese producers, with attempts to establish the full supply chain outside of China years away.

Chinese researchers build 4T perovskite-CIGS tandem solar cell with 29.36% efficiency

Scientists in China built a four-terminal perovskite-CIGS tandem solar cell based on a top semi-transparent perovskite device with an efficiency of 21.26% and a high bifaciality factor of 92.2%. They used a solvent-annealing strategy to produce a perovskite film with full coverage, larger grains, superior crystallinity and free of detectable lead iodide impurity.

The Hydrogen Stream: EU grants €1.25 billion for 41 cross-border energy projects

The European Commission says 41 cross-border energy projects will receive €1.25 billion ($1.3 billion) in funding, with one-fifth allocated to hydrogen, while Lhyfe has started building its fifth hydrogen production site in northern France, set to provide green hydrogen by 2026.

Jupiter International to invest $231 million in solar factory in India

Jupiter International says it will invest INR 20.05 billion ($231.4 million) to build a solar factory in India. The facility will produce 4.2 GW of solar cells and 3.6 GW of modules per year.

Idemitsu Kosan invests in agrivoltaics

Idemitsu Kosan says it plans to start building a 2 MW agrivoltaics facility in Japan later this year, following the successful conclusion of a 45 kW pilot project. The company has developed a proprietary agrivoltaics system based on tracker technology.
