CPV installations are projected to rise to 1,362 megawatts in 2020, up from 160 megawatts in 2013, according to the new report entitled "Concentrated PV (CPV) Report - 2013" ... more |  |
Greggs proves that solar energy generation is far from a half-baked plan Changzhou, China (SPX) Dec 16, 2013 - Trina Solar has provided 1.28MW of PV modules to Solar Advanced Systems for the completion of a series of projects at ten Greggs sites across the UK. The solar arrays will cut Greggs' CO2 emissions by 600 tonnes per year, as well as helping the company reduce its carbon footprint[1] by 25 per cent by 2015. Greggs, the largest bakery chain in the UK, was looking for a sustainable way to bot ... more |  |

NREL Reports Soft Costs Now Largest Piece of Solar Installation Total Cost Golden CO (SPX) Dec 12, 2013 - Two detailed reports from the Energy Department's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) find that solar financing and other non-hardware costs - often referred to as "soft costs" - now comprise up to 64% of the total price of residential solar energy systems, reflecting how soft costs are becoming an increasingly larger fraction of the cost of installing solar. "The two new reports, ... more |  |
Quantum waves at the heart of organic solar cells Cambridge, UK (SPX) Dec 13, 2013 - By using an ultrafast camera, scientists say they have observed the very first instants following the absorption of light into artificial yet organic nanostructures and found that charges not only formed rapidly but also separated very quickly over long distances - phenomena that occur due to the wavelike nature of electrons which are governed by fundamental laws of quantum mechanics. This ... more |  |
