Solar Energy

The maturity of the renewable energy sector has led to a fundamental shift in the way utility-scale projects are conceived and financed. While early projects often relied on a single technology and a single source of revenue, the modern...

The transition to a sustainable energy system requires more than just the decarbonization of the electricity sector. To achieve meaningful carbon reductions across the economy, it is essential to integrate renewable energy into other high-emitting sectors such as transport,...

The rapid decarbonization of the global electricity sector has introduced significant operational challenges for grid operators. As variable renewable energy sources like solar and wind become dominant, the need for system flexibility has increased dramatically. Traditionally, flexibility was provided...

The integration of battery energy storage systems with utility-scale solar installations is no longer a peripheral consideration but a central element of modern energy infrastructure. As solar penetration grows, the traditional model of exporting power as it is generated...

The Photovoltaic Research Department of the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) has achieved a certified world-record efficiency of 26.7% for perovskite/CIGS tandem solar cells, marking a new chapter in next-generation thin-film photovoltaics. The result was officially certified by...

A new methodology developed in South Korea enables the conversion of recovered solar module silicon into high-purity silicon nitride for industrial ceramics applications.

The Electricity Control Board of Namibia has introduced a standardized approval process for renewable energy projects up to 500 kW to reduce administrative delays.
