Solargis' Marcel Suri reports on the mixing of datasets in solar project planning to artificially enhance financial attractiveness.

July 2025, the peak of the Australian winter season, saw generation from utility-scale and rooftop solar increase by 12.78% year-on-year in the National Electricity Market (NEM).

Wind and solar PV are set to cover over 90% of the increase in global electricity demand this year, according to the IEA.

Solargis' Marcel Suri asks if the solar industry is using the best available science to characterise real-world solar resource conditions?

Collecting project performance data and managing cybersecurity concerns is no simple task for many project managers.

Solargis CEO Marcel Suri explores three areas where new standards could help underpin greater efficiency, accuracy and market resilience.

The industry must adopt better approaches to component management, to make more accurate energy yield predictions and optimise PV performance.

Inverters are critical to PV systems but are often over-specified due to inadequate data on which materials and designs optimise performance.

The ability of PV simulation software to accurately simulate energy performance for bifacial modules leaves more questions than answers.

PV Tech has launched a new monthly newsletter which will focus on data. Every month, the newsletter will include an exclusive chart on a given topic.
