Modules

US-based PV manufacturer Mission Solar Energy has unveiled three new modules aimed at commercial and industrial and utility-scale projects.

Saudi Arabia's PIF has signed two solar PV manufacturing agreements with Chinese manufacturers JinkoSolar and TCL Zhonghuan Renewable Energy.

Chinese solar manufacturing giant JinkoSolar will build a 10GW n-type solar cell and module manufacturing facility in Saudi Arabia.

Australia’s Clean Energy Council (CEC) has been nominated by the Clean Energy Regulator (CER) to be the solar module and product listing body under the small-scale renewable energy scheme (SRES).

Indosolar, a solar manufacturer and subsidiary of Indian company Waaree Energies, has started operations at a 1.3GW module assembly plant in India.

Spanish inverter manufacturer Ingeteam has signed a supply agreement for Enel Green Power Australia’s 93MW Girgarre solar farm.

Europe imported around 33GW of solar PV modules from China in the first four months of 2024, representing 43% of total Chinese module exports, according to US energy analyst Clean Energy Associates (CEA).

New antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) tariffs in the US could result in increased solar cell and module costs “to a level that significantly restricts solar supply and installations in the US”, according to new analysis from Clean Energy Associates (CEA).

US solar manufacturer Toledo Solar has gone out of business. In a statement, the company said it “will be ending all research and development efforts and winding down operations effective immediately.”
