CSIRO national energy analysis centre to draw insights from real world, living lab
Data collected from households and businesses will inform the National Energy Analysis Centre, a new, independent CSIRO facility established to provide consumers and providers clear insights into the energy transition, now and in the future.
Using photoluminescence, implied open-circuit voltage imaging for perovskite solar cell field testing
To evaluate the outdoor performance and stability of perovskite solar cells using contactless and noninvasive methods, an Australian and Chinese research team found a way to use photoluminescence imaging as well as demonstrating a proof of concept for implied open-circuit voltage imaging. Their research relied on cost-effective equipment that operates under direct sunlight.
Four-year outdoor testing shows perovskite cells suffer from high seasonality
Testing conducted by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin in Germany has shown that perovskite solar cells operating at high latitudes in Europe may suffer from higher performance losses in winter compared to conventional PV devices. The scientists warned, however, that at lower latitudes this seasonality may be less pronounced.
K2 Systems unveils new pitched roof mounting solutions
K2 Systems has introduced two new pitched roof mounting components for residential solar: the SingleHook 3S Light, made of aluminum and stainless steel; and the InsertionRail 2.0, an aluminum mounting rail.
AGL acquires South Australia virtual power plant from Tesla
Australia’s largest energy gentailer AGL has bought 100% of South Australia’s public housing virtual power plant from Tesla with intentions to integrate it with its VPP network on the east coast.
NSW green bank backs energy projects with $1 billion purse
The New South Wales government’s new green bank is now open for business with an initial $1 billion In funding available to accelerate key energy projects to support the state’s shift from coal-fired power generation to renewables.
How albedo interacts with rooftop PV system patterns
Researchers have simulated 160 cases of PV rooftop installation in southern and northern Italy. Among changing parameters were size and type of the panels, as well as their roof cover rate. The considered albedos were 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80%, representing different types of roof materials.
Trinasolar targeting ‘high-value’ markets
Yang Bao, Trinasolar’s president of global sales and marketing, recently spoke with pv magazine about the company’s strategy for the solar and energy storage business.
