The first event, Ziewnic X ISEM (International Solar Energy Meet Pakistan), will be held at the Solar Expo from July 25th to 27th at the Karachi Expo Center. The expo will be open daily from 11 AM to
Two loops of “dark” plasma exploded from the sun yesterday (July 21), and a NASA spacecraft caught it on video. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) watched as two loops of cool, dense plasma erupted from the sun’s surface, looking eerily similar to a pair of dementors from Harry Potter hovering over the sun. However, instead

In July 2024, the cost of installing a solar power system to fully disconnect a South African home from the grid ranges between R143,000 and R381,000, reflecting a significant drop from earlier in the year. This decrease comes amid reduced load-shedding, though future electricity tariff changes could drive renewed interest in off-grid solutions. While fully
