Data from sun.store indicates that in August 2026, prices for solar PV modules in Europe generally declined, while market demand fell below the historical average. Although the price of bifacial TOPCon modules rose by 6% to €0.116/W in August, they remain the most cost-effective choice, particularly for large-scale ground-mounted PV projects. The PV index report notes: "A distinct price gap h...
By 2026, large-format 210mm silicon wafers and ultra-high-power modules (exceeding 640W) have become the dominant market standard. Yet, the drive for ever-higher power output has exacerbated a hidden technical conflict: the high currents associated with large-format cells lead to excessive current loads and surging internal resistance losses, placing greater engineering demands on cell-cutting str...
As solar PV continues to grow globally, the technology is set to become the largest contributor to the world’s electricity mix from 2031, according to a report from technical and safety expert DNV. This is one of the highlights from the tenth edition of DNV’s Energy Transition Outlook 2026 report, which puts installed solar capacity in 2025 at 2.6TW. The number is set to double by 2030...
On October 10, a "photovoltaic string"—stretching two to three hundred meters—appeared above a stretch of farmland in Haikou. Dozens, or even hundreds, of bifacial photovoltaic (PV) panels were linked together and suspended vertically in the air. Power output peaks from sunrise until around 9:00 AM, with another surge occurring between 3:00 PM and sunset; conversely, activity dips duri...
