supply chain

The European Commission (EC) has announced its European Solar Charter, a package intended to support domestic European solar manufacturing.

Reshoring the critical manufacturing steps in the solar supply chain intersects with environmental considerations, writes NexWafe CEO Davor Sutija.

The report identified access to capital and upfront investment as the key method by which the government could support the expansion of a PV manufacturing industry in Australia.

The White House must “act immediately to solve the urgent issues interfering with investment in domestic solar manufacturing”, according to a statement from the Solar Energy Manufacturers for America (SEMA) coalition.

The US secretary of the Treasury, Janet L. Yellen, has said the US “wouldn’t want to rule out” protective trade measures to combat overcapacity of solar PV and energy storage manufacturing in China.

The EU has approved a law which will require companies to audit their supply chains for environmental damage and human rights abuse.

A major multinational glass company has verified that the crushed glass produced from used solar modules by Solarcycle can be used to make high-quality PV glass sheets, which has never been proven before, the PV recycling firm’s CEO has revealed exclusively to PV Tech Premium.

PV Tech Premium spoke with Origami Solar on how solar steel frames could help ease up the supply chain issues of module frames in the US and Europe.

The European Commission has acknowledged the current state of Europe's solar manufacturers, yet has come short of implementing any measures.

Scatec posted record-high revenues and construction figures over 2023 which it said was facilitated by lower module and BESS prices.
