BIFACIAL SOLAR PANELS: WHAT ARE THEY AND HOW DO THEY WORK?

When it comes down to installing solar panels, the goal is always to design your system to generate as much solar energy as possible. The technology used in solar panels has come a long way. One particularly exciting technology development, is bifacial solar panels. Despite bifacial modules being around since the 1960’s, through the development of PERC (passivated emitter rear cell)…

2024 is the most important for ESG regulations in Europe

Bulgaria is perhaps one of the few countries in the EU where the topic of solar installations is so politicized. Recently, this was also proven through the topic of agrovoltaics. New legal changes were recently made, less than two months after the previous ones were sent to the Constitutional Court by President Rumen Radev. It has taken longer than necessary…

More new solar installed in 2023 than any other electricity source

The SUN DAY Campaign reviewed federal government-issued reports from December and found that solar is the fastest-growing electrical generation source within the United States. In FERC’s “Energy Infrastructure Update,” solar contributed 10,937 MW of new domestic generating capacity in 2023 (through October) or 42.1% of the country’s total. According to FERC, solar’s share of total installed U.S. generating capacity has…

How solar subsidies can curb cannabis growth energy demands

As the world experiences an upswing in the demand for cannabis, it’s clear that this growth spurt brings more questions than answers. Surprisingly, the primary issue isn’t the carbon emissions from the industry, it’s the way this crop is grown by large-scale entrepreneurs. From high-powered lighting to efficient heating systems, growing it indoors comes with a significant need for electricity….
