The South Korean Ministry of Economy and Finance has unveiled a plan to invest KRW33.6 billion (US$22.9 million) in research and development (R&D) by 2026 in solar tandem cell and module technology.

The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) has announced a new AU$60 million (US$39.4 million) funding round to bolster R&D efforts to achieve ultra-low-cost solar.

The expansion is 100% compliant with the Indian government's requirement of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS).

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

A study from researchers at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia has shown that a synthetic molecule in the design of a perovskite solar cell can boost its energy efficiency and longevity.

As the year comes to an end, PV Tech speaks to Tongwei Solar's Qiu Xin about the company’s performance in 2024, and its plans for 2025.

This is the third R&D facility that Nextracker has in operations, with one in Northern California, US and another one in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Laser-assisted firing is a major breakthrough in solar technology, according to a scientist from Australia’s University of New South Wales.

As of Q1 2024, Antai Solar's global shipments had exceeded 33.2GW, with subsidiaries already established in countries.

US solar manufacturer First Solar has opened its new research and development (R&D) centre in Ohio after almost two years of construction.
