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.

Understanding year-on-year solar radiation variability is critical for optimising solar projects, particularly amid climate change.

The world reached 2.2TW of cumulative installed solar capacity in 2024, with China alone accounting for 1TW of total operating capacity.

The world’s cumulative installed solar generation capacity has doubled between 2022 and 2024, to reach over 2,000TWh, according to Ember.

As solar projects become more complex, Typical Meteorological Year data is holding the industry back, according to Solargis' Marcel Suri.
