Solargis' Marcel Suri reports on the mixing of datasets in solar project planning to artificially enhance financial attractiveness.

Radovan Kopecek and Joris Libal examine the technological and economic factors driving PV’s ascendancy, with emphasis on bifacial BC modules.

Solargis' Marcel Suri asks if the solar industry is using the best available science to characterise real-world solar resource conditions?

Solargis CEO Marcel Suri explores three areas where new standards could help underpin greater efficiency, accuracy and market resilience.

Carlos Rodriguez, Oktoviano Gandhi and Sun Huixuan examine the energy yield performance of different FPV system configurations.

As solar plants age, the possibility of voltage collapse increases. Thomas Mart and Jeetu Jangle of Solarlytics examine the problem.

As the solar industry pushes for ever-lower costs, collapsing module quality is forcing a rethink of how reliability and performance can be safeguarded, writes Eric Hafter.

Equipment-driven underperformance in PV power plants has tripled over the past five years, according to Raptor Maps.

The industry must adopt better approaches to component management, to make more accurate energy yield predictions and optimise PV performance.
