In the first week of 2024, a number of Chinese PV companies published their first quotes of the year for PV products.

The China Energy Engineering Corporation (CEEC) has commissioned 400MW of a 1GW solar project in Uzbekistan.

LONGi has developed a crystalline silicon heterojunction back-contact solar cell, which boasts a conversion efficiency of 27.09%.

First Solar has signed a PPA with Cleantech Solar, which will see the latter build 150MW of new solar capacity in India.

Solar Module Super League member (SMSL) JA Solar has shipped 240MW of n-type modules to a solar PV project in Tashkent, capital of Uzbekistan.

The Q4 2023 edition of our downstream solar PV journal, PV Tech Power, is now available to download, leading with a focus on solar PV's resilience against extreme weather.

We look at developments in the research and deployment of TOPCon cells, and consider if the year of TOPCon will continue into 2024.

Aiko Solar has launched a new series of n-type all back contact (ABC) series of modules, aimed at use in utility-scale operations.

While an abundance of Chinese modules could help meet climate change targets, such a reliance could leave many countries delicately balanced.

Peak Energy and TOPINFRA have launched a joint venture that aims to develop more than 500MW of solar and battery storage capacity.
