Ørsted said the 2.4 GW #offshorewind project has faced rising supply chain costs, higher interest rates, and increased construction and delivery risks since the Contract for Difference (CfD) award in Allocation Round 6 (AR6) in September 2024.

Fraunhofer presents solar module cleaning tech using structure-borne sound Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Media Technology IDMT has developed a solar module cleaning system that uses structure-borne sound and targeted mechanical vibrations to dislodge dust. Researchers will present the technology at Intersolar Europe in Munich from May 7 to 9.

The European solar sector has issued new recommendations to help EU policymakers address cybersecurity risks in solar PV systems, which are increasingly digitalised and internet-connected. A report by DNV, commissioned by SolarPower Europe, proposes two main solutions to reduce cybersecurity risk: Mandate industry-specific cybersecurity controls for remote-controlled solar PV systems. Ensure control over solar systems remains within the EU or trusted jurisdictions with security standards equivalent to the EU, following a model similar to GDPR. The report suggests using the EU NCCS or a new fast-track process to implement this, requiring high-risk entities to develop and have their cybersecurity measures approved by authorities. SolarPower Europe’s CEO, Walburga Hemetsberger, highlighted that while digitalisation offers major cost-saving opportunities, it also brings new cybersecurity challenges that the sector is proactively addressing.

Germany allocates 2.63 GW in latest utility-scale PV tender Germany’s latest auction for utility-scale solar concluded with prices ranging from €0.0399 ($0.0455)/kWh to €0.0488/kWh. The procurement exercise was significantly oversubscribed.

According to GWEC report published TODAY, A historic 117GW of new wind energy capacity was added globally in 2024 (109GW onshore, 8GW offshore), bringing total global wind capacity to 1,136GW across 55 countries. Top Markets: The bulk of new installations came from China, followed by the USA, Germany, India, and Brazil, which now replaces Spain in the top five for total installed capacity. Regional Trends: While Africa & Middle East saw explosive growth (+107% YoY, driven by Egypt and Saudi Arabia), North America, LATAM, and Europe experienced a decline compared to 2023. Future Growth: The report forecasts 981GW of new capacity by 2030, with annual records expected each year—culminating in 194GW in 2030. Policy Concerns: GWEC warns of rising policy instability, permitting delays, and tariff wars, urging governments to maintain stable frameworks and multilateral cooperation to sustain investment and supply chains.

Are we, as humans, still more intelligent and emotionally aware than machines? #AI is now being used to control us tightly and to influence — if not manipulate — public opinion. The moment you try to speak about a specific topic, your account may be silenced or blocked. While many of us are striving to build a brighter, greener, and more #sustainable future for the next generations, we are witnessing serious and widespread violations of basic #human #rights. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT? If this trend continues, I have no doubt: we, as humans, will gradually lose our emotions, our autonomy, and eventually be fully controlled — even if we keep pretending otherwise. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN (You name it...) MUST STOP — not tomorrow, not today, but yesterday. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT? A single person can’t do it alone. But everyone who still has a moral compass must take part. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT??? If not, I won’t be surprised......

US installed record 50GW of solar in 2024 The United States installed a record-breaking 50GW of new solar capacity in 2024, new figures show. It is the largest single year of new capacity added to the grid by any technology in over two decades. Solar and storage account for 84% of all new capacity added to the US grid last year, according to the US Solar Market Insight 2024 Year in Review report. ⚡🌍 @Renewable_Energy ✅🇵🇸 #Free_Palestine 👉 @QudsNen
