From 13 to 17 April 2026, Ankara will host a conference on crystalline silicon photovoltaics, covering TOPCon, heterojunction and tandem concepts while bringing together researchers and industry professionals.
Output across the Solitek range has increased, with standard modules rising to 455 W and C&I variants to 510 W, alongside a new cell generation and revised glass technology.
Chinese manufacturer Aiko has become the first provider to receive explosion protection certification from TÜV Süd for its ABC Stellar 66-cell dual-glass module. The certification confirms that the module does not constitute an ignition source in potentially explosive atmospheres.
As a rule, one to three percent of investment is allocated to operation and maintenance over 20 years, making solar parks low-maintenance assets with significantly lower costs than fossil or nuclear plants.
The Nexa Matte module is designed for glare-sensitive installations, using microtextured glass to reduce glare to below 2% reflection and meet growing safety and visual impact requirements in regulated environments.
Solar installations can help preserve soil moisture and support the local water balance. Two studies back up these claims and show that farmers can actively manage water use with the right system design.
Several manufacturers used KEY 2026 to introduce new PV modules, including JA Solar’s DeepBlue 5.0 TOPCon, Gokin’s AllBlack back-contact, Aiko’s upgraded Infinite ABC and SolarFabrik’s Mono S4 Halfcut BC White module.
From 4 to 6 March, the Italian manufacturer will showcase photovoltaic solutions for residential, C&I and utility-scale applications, focusing on architectural integration, system reliability and performance optimisation.
The head of Eastern Europe at photovoltaic solutions provider Trinasolar shares why she expects the region to be among the world’s fastest-growing solar markets over the next decade.
Fewer booths but bolder tech – this year’s Munich trade fair saw a slimmer turnout from module makers, yet offered a clear glimpse of where the PV industry is heading.
Rising cell prices, falling export values, stable polysilicon – the solar market is sending mixed signals. We spoke with Gerard Scheper, CEO of European Solar, about what the latest figures reveal for the road ahead.
New solar modules are being showcased at Intersolar Europe, with groundbreaking innovations such as TOPCon, BackContact, and tandem cells pushing surface performance to unprecedented levels. All the while, perovskite-based series modules remain unproven.
The Vilnius-based manufacturer of photovoltaic modules SoliTek is reporting on progress in the hail resistance certification of its photovoltaic modules for greater resilience in severe weather.
The Chinese manufacturer Longi now presents the Hi-RO Onyx modules. Onyx is based on a monocrystalline wafer and comes without visible busbars.
The Spanish solar software provider Rated Power has introduced the tool pvDesign 3.0. With the cloud-based solution, ground-mounted solar power plants can be automatically planned, designed and optimised within a few minutes.
The Leeton and Fivebough power plants are located in the town of Leeton, New South Wales, in the heart of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area, one of the most diverse regions in Australia.
The stand-alone inverter from Green Cell is suitable for small buildings such as summer homes. The device uses the output generated from the modules and converts it into 230-volt voltage.
During the night from Wednesday to Thursday last week, Solarwatt in Dresden received new laminators - a total of 250 tons of machine technology. The heavy goods lorries rolled in, escorted by the police. The next morning, the giants were hoisted into the factory building.
The Q.Flat-G6 mounting system boasts an optimized ballast that makes it Q Cells’ most aerodynamic flat roof mounting system to date.
