Ascent boosts production with acquisition of 15 MW Swiss thin-film producer

With the closing of this deal, Ascent will triple its production capacity from its 5 MW of existing nameplate capacity production.

Lightstar partners with farming conservation group to unlock agrivoltaics

A Boston-based solar developer with 208 MW of active projects is partnering with the American Farmland Trust to preserve rural farmland for agriculture and community solar development co-located on farmland, also known as Agrivoltaics.

Silicon anode battery producer files for 5 GWh production facility in Colorado

Located in Brighton, Colorado, the facility will become the first large-scale commercial advanced manufacturing center for silicon anode lithium-ion batteries by the time it opens in 2025. The facility will be built in phases, with the first phase starting with an initial 500 MWh of production at the facility which at full scale will produce 5 GWh.

Solid-state battery design uses metal blend electrolyte

New battery materials tested by Berkeley Labs and Florida State University could result in a more conductive solid-state electrolyte that is less dependent on a large quantity of individual metals, which proves effective for the huge demand in the EV market.

Impact of single-axis agrivoltaics systems on non-irrigated grassland

U.S. researchers are studying how agrivoltaic systems mounted on single-axis trackers affect rainfall and light redistribution at a 1.2 MW installation on grassland in Colorado.

Sunrise brief: Interest in solar apprenticeship expands in response to IRA 

Also on the rise: 13 European PV equipment makers pitch their machines to U.S. PV manufacturers. EV batteries alone could satisfy short-term grid storage demand. And more.
