Hailstorms will pose an increasingly serious threat to insurers and the operation of solar projects in the future. According to the report, hail damage amounts to 58.4 million US dollars per claim and accounts for more than half of the cost of all solar damage.
In an open letter published yesterday, corporate clean energy buyers are urging world leaders at COP28 to agree on a global target to triple renewable electricity capacity by 2030.
Who are the climate deniers and what communication channels and narratives do they use? How to deal with them? These questions were explored in a webinar organized by the international media network CCNow in the run-up to the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference in Dubai.
The first partial results of an investigation into the use of photovoltaics in combination with agriculture are available. The results show that the combination of agriculture and solar power production works smoothly.
War in Ukraine will delay net zero goals while simultaneously propelling the renewable transition forward. These and more trends have emerged from a recent study by Baywa r.e. Read the results in more detail here:
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has issued its third Working Group III report, which strongly suggests measures to limit global warming. Many of these are related to the energy sector:
Weather extremes can cause economic ripples along our supply chains. If they occur at roughly the same time the ripples start interacting and can amplify even if they occur at completely different places around the world, a new study shows.
As part of their presence at the BNEF London Summit on October 18-19, 2021, Sungrow called on the global renewable energy industry to do more on climate action.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer ISE have calculated that silicon photovoltaic modules manufactured in the EU produce 40 per cent less CO2 emissions than modules manufactured in China. See here why that is the case:
Clenergy has recently supplied 3 megawatts of its solar mounting products for 13 islands in the Maldives.
The Earth's surface temperature could be 1.5 degrees higher than in the pre-industrial era by 2030. It is the time to act, IPCC scientists agree with environmental and energy groups.
The Munich Environmental Institute demands the shutdown of the endangered reactors in Tihange and Doel. Otherwise, an incident similar to that in Fukushima may be imminent.
The oil and gas company has suffered a defeat in the District Court in The Hague. Shell now has to reduce its CO2 emissions by at least 45 per cent (net) by 2030 compared to 2019. A historic ruling.
A new IIASA-led study explored options for empowering citizens as a driver for moving from awareness about the need to transform energy systems to action and participation.
Since the beginning of 2020, Covid-19 has had most of the world in suspense. The pandemic has not only had an impact on our private lives but also took over most of political decision making and media coverage.
Little Sun, the clean energy nonprofit founded by Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson and engineer Frederik Ottesen, announces Reach for the Sun: Ten Steps to Creating a Solar-Powered World, a global creative communications campaign.
A researcher at Queen’s University Belfast is leading a new global project focusing on helping two African communities to manage the impact of climate change on their cultural heritage.
During the Climate Week NYC 2020 that took place virtually on September 21-27, Sungrow shared its insights on climate action, thereby urging the global communities to a net-zero future.
Usually, the efficiency of photovoltaic modules is one of the main criteria when deciding to buy. The relationship between increasing module temperature and the lower power resulting from this, in other words the temperature coefficient, is becoming more important because of the extremely hot summers that are occurring more frequently.
