Norwegian ingot and wafer manufacturer NorSun will supply Heliene, a Canadian solar PV manufacturer, with US-made silicon wafers for its annual requirements from 2026.
Scientists at the University of Oxford last week (9 August) revealed a breakthrough in solar PV technology via an ultra-thin material that can be applied to “almost any building” and deliver over 27% conversion efficiency.
Australian startup SunDrive Solar has revealed that it has undergone a restructuring of the company, resulting in job cuts, as it looks to “sharpen focus on solar”.
National industry body Energy Networks Australia (ENA) has called on the Australian government to implement the appropriate incentives to unlock at least 5GW of additional rooftop solar PV generation capacity.
