Hello, fellow solar enthusiasts!
As a keen follower of all things solar, I’m thrilled to share some interesting updates that recently caught my eye. It’s exciting to observe the business of solar and its evolving trajectory as it contributes significantly towards a sustainable future. So, without further ado, let’s jump in.
Firstly, you might have heard the buzz about the rising value of rooftop solar, and there’s solid data backing it up. According to an analysis, there’s a considerable increase in the value of rooftop solar, ranging from 19% to 25%. This upturn is primarily attributable to growing onsite electricity demand caused by warming and changing weather patterns. This means investing in solar panels for your home could lead to tremendous cost savings, and potentially, revenue.
Given the benefits, it’s no surprise that individuals and solar companies alike are seeking reliable solutions for energy storage. Enter Anza marketplace! Anza platform enables comparisons of over 20 energy storage products, showcasing real-time pricing and configuration details on modules. It’s like a virtual showroom catered specifically to your solar array for home needs.
In other exciting news, Cypress Creek Renewables recently brought to life a 208 MW solar facility in Texas, complete with 80 MWh of battery energy storage. Big strides such as these by individual solar companies are driving the industry closer to its solar-power-centric vision.
On the price front, there’s some encouraging news for those contemplating setting up solar panels for their homes. Solar cell prices have been on a downward spiral since late March, making it even more affordable to tap in on the energy of the sun. Stay tagged to always stay updated with price points and make the right decision at the right time.
Lastly, we have an exciting update from NREL. In their interactive chart of solar cell efficiency, they have now included a new category they term ‘hybrid tandems.’ This category comprises perovskite/silicon, perovskite/CIGS, III-V/silicon, and perovskite/organic tandem PV devices. It lists the absolute record efficiency for all-perovskite, two-terminal tandems regardless of the number of junctions.
In conclusion, these latest developments reiterate the potential of solar and the opportunities it presents. As advancements continue to emerge in this arena, it’s a great time for homeowners to consider opting for solar panels for their homes, and for solar companies to expand their horizons even further.
