bifacial modules

French energy giant TotalEnergies and Spanish solar tracker manufacturer have received construction authorisation for a 200MW solar PV project in Murcia, Spain.

This year, we are hosting the 10th bifacial workshop in Doha from 3 to 6 December under the theme of "Entering the bifacial n-type era", with a focus on desert applications

Enel Green Power Romania, the Romania-based renewables arm of Italian energy company Enel, has commissioned a 63MW solar PV plant in Romania.

Enel Green Power Chile has started commercial operations at its 398MW Guanchoi solar plant, Chile's largest single solar facility.

Europe has the potential to deploy 51TW of agriculture-paired solar PV, or agrivoltaics, according to research published in the Progress in Photovoltaics journal earlier this year.

As PV projects become more and more common in the Nordics, wind players like OX2 are entering the solar market with large-scale projects.

Mounting system manufacturer Schletter has unveiled its latest agrivoltaics product at Intersolar Europe 2023 in Munich, Germany.

First Solar has announced that it will produce a limited production run of bifacial thin film PV modules, which it says are the first of their kind. The company ultimately plans to roll the product out commercially, following field and laboratory testing.

While bifacial modules promise advantages in power production, they can create complex performance monitoring challenges. That will need to be resolved if project production uncertainties are expected to remain at levels and expectations currently set with the deployment of mono-facial modules, write Ajay Singh and Derek Jones of Campbell Scientific Inc.

Solitek targets the agriPV and industrial markets in Italy to set itself aside from Chinese manufacturers with its bifacial glass-to-glass modules.
