US solar module manufacturer SEG Solar has shipped its first order of utility-scale solar modules from its Texas production facility.

Kiwa PVEL examines the ultraviolet-induced degradation (UVID) results on n-type technology from its latest PV Module Reliability Scorecard.

US-based solar manufacturer T1 Energy has expressed support for the US government’s tariff investigations into global polysilicon imports and solar products from Laos, Indonesia and India.

The investigation launched on polysilicon under Section 232 could present the biggest supply chain challenge to the US solar industry, according to analyst Wood Mackenzie.

A new manufacturing method has produced tandem perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells with a conversion efficiency of 27.8%.

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

The deal follows the start of production at ES Foundry’s 3GW nameplate capacity manufacturing plant in January.

“The required investment and technical know-how [for establishing cell capacity] is significantly more complex and substantial [than modules]”, Colville said.

Meyer Burger will scrap its proposed 2GW solar cell manufacturing plant in Colorado, claiming that the project is not 'financially viable'.

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.
