Power Plants

Indian power company AmpIn Energy Transition has invested INR31 billion (US$371.7 million) to build renewables projects of more than 600MW and a solar cell and module manufacturing plant.

Inverter manufacturer Sungrow has supplied its 1+X modular inverters to renewables company Comerc Renew’s 267MW solar PV plant in Brazil.

A total of about 8.5GW of solar capacity was added in the first three quarters of 2023 in India, down by 25% year-on-year.

A “toxic inventory” of modules has been building up in Europe because market growth has been slower than expected, according to S&P Global.

Germany’s auction for solar installations on buildings and noise barriers has awarded contracts to 88 bids with a cumulative capacity of 191MW.

TransAlta and BHP have started commercial operations at a solar-plus-storage facility in Western Australia.

Extremely high population density and the necessity to use land for agriculture are the reasons for building FPV in Southeast Asian countries.

Under the agreement, Velto Renewables and Kenergy will co-develop early-stage solar power projects in Spain.

China’s total installed PV capacity reached 540GW at the end of October, according to figures released by the country’s National Energy Administration.

India’s residential rooftop solar potential could reach 32GW, representing huge potential growth as the installed capacity is only 2.7GW now.
