EWS will be exhibiting again at Solar Solutions 2024. The largest exhibition for solar energy in Northwest Europe will take place this year from 19 to 21 March at the Expo Greater Amsterdam.
At their stand at Solar Solutions Amsterdam, Autarco will show two of its recently launched products, being a Full Black TOPCon glass-glass solar panel and a three-phase hybrid inverter as well as their recently announced inaugural solar energy storage system.
SLIM, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)'s spacecraft equipped with thin-film compound solar cells developed and manufactured by Sharp, has landed on the Moon's surface on January 20.
A low-glare solar module with special glass, a multi-talented heating system, a complete system with online configurator and a dual-row solar tracker. These are our top products of the week:
IBC Solar presents the new complete system IBC Home One. This is a response to the requirements of a growing market and the capacity bottlenecks at many installation companies.
SMA will expand the production of electromagnetic components for inverters and other products in the new production hall in Krakow, Poland. The location is strategically well chosen.
Module manufacturer Maysun Solar has teamed up with microinverter supplier Hoymiles. They offer a solar package for the balcony.
Seplugs products were developed for Schuko sockets in conjunction with a balcony power station. However, they are also suitable for plugs in small storage units or camping accessories.
At CES in Las Vegas, Dracula Technologies has introduced Layer Vault. This technology combines low-light Organic Photovoltaic (OPV) energy harvesting and electrical storage on a single flexible film, thus providing a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional batteries.
The new Hensel inverter programme picks up on the trend towards more powerful solar systems and correspondingly higher inverter outputs. With the new Enysun inverter collectors, the manufacturer has developed specially dimensioned distributors.
Manufacturer Raycap is expanding its portfolio with the Protec 60 series. The 60 millimetre busbar surge protector offers reliable protection for all types of power distribution systems.
The solar industry will meet in Düsseldorf on 29 and 30 November. More than 200 exhibitors are expected at the regional trade fair. Exhibition halls 13 and 14 will be open between 9 am and 5 pm.
A power optimiser that switches quickly, flexible commercial storage, CAD software for the electrical trade and new solar modules with IBC technology. Here are our top products of the week:
The start-up BRC Solar from Ettlingen near Karlsruhe in Germany presents a new power optimiser. The M500/14 optimiser can adjust the output current for solar modules with low irradiation and thus improve the overall performance of the system.
Together with Meyer Burger, clean tech start-up LuxChemtech from Freiberg is laying the foundations for solar recycling on an industrial scale.
SMA and Samsung will link their communication. This will allow heating devices such as heat pumps from Samsung to be integrated into SMA's energy management system.
The specialist for vehicle-integrated photovoltaics (VIPV) has announced plans to build a solar module plant in Germany. The focus is on modules for trucks and other large vehicles.
The resilience of supply chains for key technologies for the energy transition, such as photovoltaics and wind power, is in a poor state in Europe. Import dependency, especially on China, is immensely high. A study shows this and gives recommendations.
The German PV equipment manufacturing industry is reporting significantly more orders from Asia and the USA and strongly declining European demand.
At Intersolar 2023, IBC Solar will be demonstrating how its PV modules and mounting systems are subjected to endurance tests. On a load table, solar modules in combination with brackets will be subjected to structural and mechanical stress tests.
In 2022, the photovoltaics (PV) equipment sector recorded a decline in incoming orders of around 3 percent compared to the previous year. Turnover fell by 7 percent. However, the latest ratio of orders to sales stands at 1.5, which indicates a recovery.
From 14 to 16 June, the international solar industry will once again meet at the Intersolar trade fair as part of The smarter E Europe in Munich. Raycap will present the latest surge protection innovations for EV charging stations and PV systems of all sizes at Intersolar.
It goes without saying that SMA will be at Intersolar Europe 2023 in Munich: Showcasing a range of new solutions for a future-proof energy supply. A spotlight will be on the Sunny Boy Smart Energy.
Sungrow received the ETSI EN 303 645 certificate for its data logger, the Logger3000 from DEKRA, the international certification organization. Sungrow is the first company in renewable energies to obtain the certificate.
The competition for locations for future Gigafactories for the production of solar components is heating up. To keep Europe on the ball, improved framework conditions for the construction of plants and state aid regulations are needed.
