Bali launches rooftop solar acceleration program

The Indonesian province of Bali plans to scale up rooftop solar installations across government buildings, public facilities, and businesses to reduce dependence on fossil-based electricity.

US-based SEG Solar launches cell production in Indonesia

SEG Solar, a US-based PV module manufacturer, has commissioned a solar cell factory in Indonesia and produced its first n-type cell at the facility.

The Hydrogen Stream: EU backs €400 million H2 scheme in Spain

The European Commission has cleared a €400 million ($455.2 million) Spanish aid program to scale renewable hydrogen output, backing up to 345 MW of electrolyzer capacity and targeting 221,000 tons of production via the EU Hydrogen Bank’s 2025 auction round.

Gstar’s wafer factory in Indonesia gets monocrystalline growth furnaces

Singapore-based solar manufacturer Gstar Solar has received the first of 120 monocrystalline growth furnaces to be delivered to its new 3 GW wafer manufacturing facility in Indonesia.

Mibet launches new floaters for PV systems on deep water

Mibet has released new floaters for PV systems deployed in deep water. The G4M system, already installed in Indonesia on a body of water with a depth of 60 meters, allows the solar panels to be tilted at 5 degrees to 15 degrees.

New study shows reducing number of solar modules per string reduces risk of hotspots

Scientists in Indonesia have investigated early operational defects in a 24.9 MW solar PV system in Sumatra and have identified hotspot formation as the dominant defect. They also detected 282 cases of glass cracking, 350 cases of junction box failures and shading effects linked to module defects.

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.
