Solar LCOE May Drop To $0.018/kWh in Africa by 2030, Says IEA
In terms of photovoltaic costs, the report predicts that by 2030, the cost of photovoltaics in Africa may drop to US$0.018/kWh to US$0.049/kWh, and its price will be lower than that of wind power or natural gas power generation.
What Are Photovoltaic Modules?
Photovoltaic modules refer to the smallest and indivisible photovoltaic cell combination device with packaging and internal connection, which can provide DC output alone, and different specifications of solar cell combination cut by solar cells or by laser cutting machine or steel wire cutting machine.
Soaring Over 40%! Off-grid Solar Investment Tops $450 Million!
According to the latest report from the Global Off-Grid Lighting Association (GOGLA), investment in the off-grid solar industry hit a record $450 million in 2021. The industry has seen recovering growth post-pandemic. After hitting the $300 million mark, investment surged by more than 40%.
How Do Solar Cells Work?
Why does the semiconductor PN junction have electricity when it is illuminated by sunlight? Scientists call this phenomenon of electricity generation by light “photovoltaic effect”. The core principle of the photovoltaic effect is the “hole conduction” of the PN junction.
IEA: 60% of Total Renewable Energy! Global PV Installed Capacity Will Reach 190GW in 2022
The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts in a survey report released recently that the installed capacity of photovoltaics, wind power, and other renewable energy sources installed globally will achieve triple-digit growth this year, and the new photovoltaic power generation capacity will reach 190GW.
Can Thailand’s Photovoltaic Market Be “Reborn”?
The transformation process of Thailand’s electricity market from “fossil fuel dominated” to “diversified zero-carbon energy system” continues.
What is Solar Pumping Inverter?
Solar pumping inverter controls and adjusts the operation of the solar water pump system, converts the direct current generated by the photovoltaic array into alternating current, drives the water pump, and adjusts the output frequency in real time according to the change of the sunlight intensity to realize the maximum power point tracking ( MPPT).
Under the Carbon Neutrality Goal, What Fields Are Photovoltaics Used for?
By the end of 2021, Chinese photovoltaic installed capacity is 310 million kWh. By 2060, the installed photovoltaic capacity will be more than 10 times today. Where will such a huge PV increment be installed? What will the situation look like in 2022?
Silicon Wafers Are “Excluded” US Anti-circumvention Investigation Welcomes a Major Turning Point!
The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) recently issued a memo providing important clarifications regarding its anti-circumvention investigations against solar cell and module manufacturers in Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.
What is MPPT Solar System?
MPPT solar controller is solar charge and discharge controller, which is used to control photovoltaic panels to charge batteries and provide load control voltage for voltage sensitive equipment.
Solar Photovoltaic Water Pump System for Water Supply
The large initial investment of photovoltaic water pumps is its disadvantage. However, due to its low operating costs and low maintenance or maintenance-free characteristics, the cost of its water rises very slowly.
Solar Water Pumps for Water Supply
Solar Water Pump, or photovoltaic water pump (PVP), provides an alternative. After years of research and technological advances, it has proven to be operationally, financially, and environmentally sustainable.
