China has been so close to dying with its solar panels that has made the only logical decision: manufacture less

China is a colossus in the photovoltaic industry segment. They are not just installing huge parksbut dominate production with iron. So much that they have made The whole world depends on its technology and collapsed the price of the panels, drowning European and American manufacturers. The result of the crazy expansion was An internal price … Read more

In Elche a solar macroproject threatens a protected place. It is only the tip of the iceberg of a problem throughout Spain

Spain advances in its energy transition, but not without conflicts. In Galicia, for example, the expansion of wind farms has generated A growing social rejection for its impact on the landscape. Something similar happens in the teacher, where local communities They denounce the implementation of renewables without planning or consensus. Now, the conflict moves south … Read more

In case we had not had enough problems in the electricity network, a “severe” solar storm has come to complicate it

The closeness of the Pico de Activity of the last solar cycle implies stirred times in the field of “spatial meteorology.” And we have seen one of the most important during these days, a “severe” geomagnetic storm caused by this activity. Geomagnetic storm. The last two days have been days of “intense” solar activity. The … Read more

Good news, the solar system has a new minor planet. Bad news, it’s so far that appears every 25,000 years

The International Astronomical Union has added a new celestial body to its Minor planet catalog: The Transneptunian object 2017 of201. The solar system has a new member. 2017 of201 has been officially recognized as a minor planet, but has many ballots to end also cataloged as a dwarf planet. This icy world, which orbits much … Read more

Europe wants solar panels without forced labor. The only problem is that almost everyone comes from China

In the early 2000s, Europe was consecrated as The largest solar energy manufacturer worldwide. After more than two decades, that dominant position is a memory against the unstoppable advance of China, which has achieved that more than 80% of global production leaves its factories. A paradigm shift. China has a very particular look of seeing … Read more

The solar energy that does work without electricity

The blackout of April 28 left Spain and Portugal without light, even surprising those who had solar panels at home. How is it possible? The answer is in the connection From facilities to the electricity grid, but there is a solution that comes from Seville. Short. The Toscano company has developed Combi Max, a differential … Read more

The ice age had a solar storm so powerful that its effects can still be detected in trees

How powerful can it become a solar storm? More than one will have ever asked this question for mere curiosity. And also out of necessity. Answering this question is important in order to prepare in the face of potential storms of great magnitude, but it is complicated: we have a limited sample and the most … Read more

Its solar panel in tandem already exceeds the theoretical limit of silicon

The efficiency of solar panels always andStá in object of studyand the only country capable of developing new advances is China. In fact, the company Longi has achieved have even a certificate of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) of the United States. Short. The Chinese giant of the solar modules He has achieved A … Read more

diurnal solar surpluses, night spikes … and increasingly cheaper batteries

For years, conversation about the future of Spanish electricity has been reduced to fear of two words: “China photovoltaic”. Panels cheap and reasonably efficient. But the final weapon is not arriving in containers from Shanghai, but increasingly frequently in the van of a neighborhood installer: lithium batteries packs that allow reducing the dependence of the … Read more
