Solar inverter maker Enphase Energy says full-year revenue fell 42% as the residential solar market slumped, but margins improved and United States manufacturing expanded significantly.
Challenges and innovations drive solar and energy storage inverter industry forward in 2025.
BloombergNEF says in a new report that global clean energy investment reached $2.1 trillion in 2024, more than doubling 2020 levels. The United States led energy transition debt issuance, driving up investment 5% year on year to $334 billion.
A new paper co-authored by Australian National University Professor Andrew Blakers discusses the potential for long-duration pumped hydro energy stations built on non-river locations, which, with batteries, can solve world’s energy storage needs.
The Austrian manufacturer said its new Argeno inverter features an efficiency of 99.1%, a European efficiency of 98.7%, and a rated AC power output of 125 kW.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest report forecasts that 493 GW (DC) of solar will be added throughout the world this year, compared to 495 GW in 2024. Solar module prices are expected to rise this year as manufacturers aim to recover profit losses from the past two years.
Wood Mackenzie says that JinkoSolar has taken first place on its list of solar panel manufacturers. The report confirms the dominance of the TOPCon technology but also notes that heterojunction and back contact panel manufacturers are increasing their production share.
Martin Schachinger, founder of pvXchange.com, said PV module prices will depend on national and international demand trends in the coming months, with outcomes ranging from increases to stagnation or further declines. Almost anything is possible, but nothing is certain.
GoodWe says its ES Uniq Series hybrid inverters suit on-grid and off-grid applications, offering a maximum efficiency of 97.6% and a European efficiency of 96.2%.
Scientists have placed four PV panels in a 21-metre wind tunnel and run different tests regarding tilt angles, mounting height, spacing, and incoming flow direction. They found that when the spacing between panels exceeds twice the panel height, the mutual influence on dust deposition becomes negligible.
