The District Industries Centre (DIC), Tiruppur, has scheduled a workshop on August 29 at the Collectorate to create awareness among MSMEs on the benefits of Rooftop Solar Demand Aggregation. Industries located in the same cluster will be enabled to procure rooftop solar systems together through the initiative. The workshop will be conducted free of cost

TALATAN, China (AP) — Chinese officials have showcased what they claim will be the world’s largest solar farm on the Tibetan plateau. It covers 610 square kilometers, or about 235 square miles, and is part of China’s rapid solar expansion. A study published Thursday said China’s carbon emissions fell 1% in the first half of

Little pieces of the 4.5 billion-year-old Asteroid Bennu are saying a whole lot about the history of the solar system. As the first asteroid samples to return to the U.S. for research, particles from Bennu have begun to paint a sweeping picture of the circumstances surrounding the asteroid’s formation while our solar system was still

Commenting on its report on Ireland and Great British renewable energy curtailment, Montel Energy’s Fintan Devenney described Great Britain’s solar curtailment as “negligible” during the first six months of 2025. Solar curtailment in Ireland has increased sevenfold since 2022, the report found… https://www.pv-magazine.com/2025/08/22/ireland-curtails-almost-89-gwh-of-solar-in-h1/

The evolution of PV technology has progressed through several distinct phases, from early aluminium back surface field (Al-BSF) cells to the current generation of high-efficiency architectures. Among these, bifacial modules have emerged as particularly significant due to their ability to capture sunlight on both sides of the panel, typically yielding 5-20% more energy than conventional
The Fraunhofer ISE has defined new technical procedures to test the performance of large-area perovskite-silicon tandem PV modules by using the spectral variability of the LED solar simulator. The proposed approach reportedly reduces device handling, time, and consequently financial effort… https://www.pv-magazine.com/2025/08/22/new-approach-to-measure-perovskite-silicon-tandem-pv-module-performance-via-led-based-solar-simulators/

Open-pit mining at Kennecott Copper Mine, also called Bingham Canyon Mine, in Utah Witold Skrypczak/Alamy The leftover ore discarded by US mines is packed with key minerals – enough to provide virtually all of the raw material needed to build clean energy technologies. Recovering just a fraction of these minerals could meet the country’s growing
