A marketplace report on the first half of 2025 reveals that median loan rates for residential solar projects climbed to 7.5%, with 38% of surveyed contractors saying loan demand decreased.

On-site storage paired with hydrogen and solar could unlock reliability and scalability for next-gen data centers.

Energy storage can be the final push a utility needs to accept a new large load application.

VDE America’s Brian Grenko says a focus on portfolio management and risk mitigation can help developers succeed.

Canada is investing CAD 33 million ($23.8 million) in a 32 MW solar project to be built by George Gordon First Nation in Saskatchewan.

The company opened a 95,000 square foot facility that is expected to create 100 jobs in Houston, adding to its existing footprint in the area.

The company will display a 435 W N-type solar panel for residential projects, among other products, at the RE+ trade show in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The company is building an N-type cell fab in Greenville, North Carolina, complementing its active 2 GW module factory.

The U.S.-based solar inverter manufacturer is displaying a new 1 MW utility-scale inverter and a 1000 V transformerless inverter at the RE+ trade show in Las Vegas, Nevada September 8-11.

The major solar manufacturer is displaying several new solar modules at the RE+ trade show in Las Vegas, Nevada September 8-11.

The federal agency says it has ‘determined that the value of the data collected by the survey no longer exceeds the burden of collecting and publishing it,’ and has proposed canceling the program.

Electric vehicles now match and in some cases exceed the performance and reliability of internal combustion engine vehicles. Today, the most serious barrier to adoption is not EVs themselves, but deficiencies in charging infrastructure. Paired Power CEO Tom McCalmont explains how solar power and the right software could solve key challenges facing charger networks.

pv magazine USA spotlights news of the past week including market trends, project updates, policy changes and more.

Job moves in solar, storage, cleantech, utilities and energy transition finance.

SunStrong said it is now among the largest residential solar asset managers now that it is in charge of Sunnova’s assets and operations.

A new test curve for determining solar panels’ breaking point from hail uses a broader spectrum of impact energies and testing products.

Canadian and U.S. researchers have investigated applying pressure to a 2D hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite to tune the optical and electronic properties to suit photovoltaic applications, light emitting diodes or other semiconductor devices.

A team of scientists at Georgia Southern University has combined both spatial and temporal attention mechanisms to develop a new approach for PV inverter fault detection. Training the new method on a dataset created in MATLAB/Simulink, the group has compared it to a series of other data-driven and statistical-based methods and has found accuracy reached 97.35%.

Local energy initiatives have increased at the local level, but researchers say more focus on addressing spatial planning and economic benefits is needed in the renewable energy transition.

Interconnection agreements grew 33% year-over-year in 2024 and are sustaining momentum through 2025, said Wood Mackenzie.
