Earth Day is an international event in the support of environmental protection. SolarEdition as a Norwegian renewable energy organization as well as one of the Solar Energy Cluster members, Solenergiklyngen, has recently taken a great […]
Agrivoltaics refers to the innovative use of farmland to produce electricity using solar panels, and food. This system was designed to develop sustainable solutions to ensure food security and shift to renewable sources of energy. […]
Ocean Sun, a Norwegian specialist in FPV projects, has inked a joint venture to exploit the untapped floating photovoltaic (FPV) potential of two southernmost countries in the EU. “Thanks to good solar irradiation and water […]
For over 3 million years, our Earth has provided and nourished us with everything we see around us. However, years of over-exploitation of resources have led to global issues such as climate change and global […]
The World Bank estimated that there is a 400 GW global market capacity for floating photovoltaic (FPV) projects under conservative estimations, which is equivalent to the complete world cumulative solar capacity by 2017. This estimation […]
Africa is blessed with sunlight throughout the year with solar irradiance levels reaching over 2000 kWh/m2 In spite of this fact, 90% of electricity generation in countries including Ethiopia, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, and Zambia is […]
Cochin International Airport located in Kerela, India is the first fully solar-powered airport in the world which is powered by a 40 MW photovoltaic power station. Cochin Airport has now taken a new step towards […]
Fitch Solutions estimated that 10GW of new floating photovoltaic (FPV) capacity will be added by 2025. We have already reported that until the end of August 2020, cumulative FPV capacity reached 2.6 GW. Thus, after […]
In this article, we aim at comparing floating photovoltaic (FPV) with ground-mounted solar photovoltaic. The comparison is based on parameters such as land-use efficiency (LUE), energy yield, water evaporation, and local utilization of energy for […]
Floating photovoltaic (FPV) was considered a nascent market two years ago. Cumulative FPV capacity had reached 1.3 GW (1300 MW) at that time. However, FPV firstly appeared as an option to extend solar power across […]
