In the US, advanced manufacturing technologies account for the majority of tax credit transfer deals in Q3 2024, according to Crux.

LevelTen's Plácido Ostos tells PV Tech Premium why the average price of solar PPAs signed in Europe has stabilised after months of decline.

The US added 18.5GWac of utility-scale solar capacity in 2023, and added 14.3GWac of such capacity in the first eight months of 2024.

According to IRENA, the renewable energy employed 16.2 million people in 2023, of which 7.1 million jobs were in the solar PV industry.

Europe’s solar sector exceeded 800,000 full-time equivalent jobs for the first time in 2023, following record-breaking installation figures.

PV modelling relies on the assumption of 99% availability for forecasting, but the adoption of a more realistic metric would improve finances.

The world could meet the targets set out at last year’s COP28, as long as 'additional international efforts' are made, according to the IEA.

The global weighted average LCOE of utility-scale PV plants fell to US$0.044/kWh in 2023, a 12% year-on-year decline from 2022.

The world is on pace to add 593GW of new solar power capacity in 2024, a 29% increase over the capacity added in 2023.

Colin Sillerud of CFV Labs discusses how PV modules have become weaker as a result of their growing surface area and diminishing frame sizes.
