Cold soldering has become the highest frequency problem found during pre-shipment electroluminescence inspection of PV modules, write CEA's Paul Wormser and Jake Edie.

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).

The flurry of recent tariff changes for solar imports to the US is likely to make products from Southeast Asia less attractive to buyers, according to renewables analysis firm Clean Energy Associates (CEA).

US renewables firm Clean Energy Associates (CEA) predicts that the solar industry’s latest anti-dumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) petition has a “high likelihood” of resulting in duties being paid on solar imports.

CEA's George Touloupas and Brian Hansen consider how developers and investors should respond to the accelerating shift in cell technologies.

Annual module capacity in the US is expected to reach 35GW by the end of the year, according to advisory body, Clean Energy Associates (CEA).

Clean Energy Associates’ Christian Roselund explores the opportunities and risks that lie ahead for US solar, including the ramifications of November’s presidential election.

A shortage of US-made cells and other materials means ongoing reliance on imports to match domestic module capacity, according to CEA.

Global module capacities are on track to reach 866GW by the end of 2023, more than doubling the existing capacity at the end of 2022.

Grounding issues and damaged modules are the most common safety problems among rooftop solar projects, according to Clean Energy Associates (CEA).
