Energy
European electricity prices exceeded €110/MWh due to high gas futures and reduced solar generation. TTF gas prices reached their highest level since January 2023, driving up energy costs across major markets.
Energy
Italian researchers developed flexible crystalline-silicon solar modules without glass using roll-to-roll manufacturing. The prototype retained 96% efficiency after outdoor testing, demonstrating potential for adaptable renewable energy applications.
Energy
Fortlev Solar unveiled Aquafort, a modular floating solar system designed for water bodies like reservoirs and dams. The HDPE-based system supports various module sizes and offers a 25-year lifespan.
Energy
Australia's federal government launched a new Capacity Investment Scheme tender seeking 1.8 GW of solar and wind energy in Western Australia. The tender represents continued investment in renewable energy capacity expansion.
Climate
Extreme heat in Chicago is linked to increased emergency room visits for various health conditions beyond heat stroke, including kidney dysfunction and injuries. The study reveals the broader public health impacts of climate change on urban populations.
Energy
A summer derecho left tens of thousands without power in Gary, Indiana for nearly two weeks, exposing infrastructure vulnerabilities. The incident highlights the critical need for reliable power systems as climate-related extreme weather events become more frequent.
EV
Voltpost expands its EV charging network by introducing ceiling-mounted chargers for garages and wall-mounted options for apartment buildings. The new installations can be completed in just hours.
Energy
US renewable energy, particularly solar and energy storage, continues to expand despite political headwinds. The growth demonstrates market momentum independent of fossil fuel policy preferences.
Energy
Coordinated operation of cascading hydropower plants in the Mid-Columbia region could improve systemwide efficiency through collaboration between different dam operators. NLR modeling demonstrates potential benefits when facilities align their individual goals and operations.
Policy
UK regulations now permit 800W plug-in solar panel installations across England, Wales, and Scotland. Plug-in battery systems remain excluded but are under regulatory review.
Policy
California's Assembly has passed SB 868, the Plug and Play Solar Act, advancing residential solar adoption. The bill awaits Senate concurrence on amendments before becoming law.
Policy
Brazil temporarily relaxed environmental regulations for the Belo Monte hydropower plant to manage anticipated El Niño-driven Amazon drought. The measure allows reduced water flow from the dam's 119 square-kilometer reservoir.
Ocean
Scientists discovered 149 new deep-sea species during an expedition surveying volcanic seamounts in the Indian Ocean's central eastern region. The finding highlights the understudied biodiversity of deep-sea ecosystems in an ocean basin that covers about a fifth of global ocean area.
Climate
Indigenous water systems in Bolivia are proving resilient during severe droughts, with traditional spring-fed pools sustaining communities as climate pressures intensify. Local knowledge and infrastructure like the paúro are gaining attention as effective climate adaptation strategies.
Energy
Pennsylvania has fallen behind on solar energy adoption after a fracking boom shifted focus away from renewables. Environmental advocates call for state leaders to prioritize clean power through policy reforms.
Climate
Europe's intense heatwaves are expected to increase insurance claims for heat-related deaths and illnesses, particularly among elderly populations. S&P warns this could significantly impact life, health, and reinsurance companies' earnings.
Wildlife
A Cotswolds farmer restored biodiversity on his farm by returning to heritage wheat varieties, resulting in increased wildlife populations including 18 red-listed bird species. The farm now demonstrates a small but significant reversal of Britain's 73 million bird decline since 1970.
Ocean
A Cornwall Wildlife Trust initiative uses volunteers and underwater monitoring to detect changes in the River Fal's marine habitats threatened by algal blooms. The project brings together farmers, fishers, and beavers in an effort to reduce nutrient pollution affecting England's most biodiverse coastal areas.
Energy
German researchers found AZO-based silicon heterojunction solar cells degrade faster in humid conditions than ITO-based cells. A magnesium fluoride capping layer was developed to improve damp-heat stability by reducing moisture penetration.
Energy
Researchers in Malaysia developed an improved temperature model for floating solar systems that better predicts performance by incorporating water temperature data. The new FPV-NOCT model achieved up to 92.3% accuracy in validation tests from Brazil and California.
Energy
Semi-transparent photovoltaic modules reduce greenhouse temperatures by up to 5°C while cutting water losses by over 60%, according to University of Jaén research. The study compares CdTe and amorphous silicon technologies to balance solar generation with crop needs.
Energy
The UK government approved the Beacon Fen Energy Park, a 400 MW solar facility with 600 MW battery storage system. Construction can now begin following the development consent order.
Energy
Saudi Arabia has awarded $1.16 billion for 8 GWh of battery storage capacity through agreements with ACWA Power and Engie consortiums. This 2 GW/8 GWh portfolio represents the first phase of the kingdom's battery storage procurement program.
Energy
Enphase Energy has launched pre-orders for its IQ Battery C80, a commercial energy storage system designed for multi-megawatt-hour deployments. The AC-coupled battery marks the company's entry into the commercial battery storage market.
Wildlife
Australia's bogong moths, which migrate billions strong each spring to alpine regions, play a crucial role in supporting alpine ecosystems. The species faces an uncertain future due to climate and environmental pressures.
