Modules

The origin of solar cells has had an impact on the price of US solar modules in the past few months, according to a report from solar and storage software company Anza.

The Spanish Ministry of Ecological Transition (MITECO) has awarded funding to seven solar PV manufacturing projects with more than €210 million.

Leading Chinese module manufacturer Trinasolar has developed an 808W solar module that uses perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells.

Goldi Solar tells PV Tech Premium that plans to scale up operations from 3GW to 14GW would not have been possible without using AI.

This would be treble the installations registered globally in 2024, with China controlling most of the supply chain.

The president said the move was “necessary to advance the policy of the United States to restore common sense to the Federal Government."

Construction of the solar cell plant is expected to begin in mid-year 2025 with commercial production beginning in the second half of 2026.

Reducing silver consumption remains one of the key trends in the solar industry, such as going busbar-less, highlights the ITRPV.

“We want to scale up our localisation drive in solar materials," said managing director of the Rural Electrification Agency.

JA Solar has signed a module supply agreement with Exel Solar to provide 260MW of tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) modules.
