UK green supplier Good Energy has signed a new subsidy-free agreement for two solar farms in Wales.
The two sites – Flint Landfill and Crumps Yard – are being developed by ENGIE on land owned by Flintshire County Council. Cumulatively the sites have a capacity of 3.5MW from 9,000 400W panels across the two.
Both received planning permission in 2020, and will enter the construction phase now following the financial agreement with Good Energy, which provides financial security to the Council and offers above market rates, the company said.
Solar power will be vital in driving forward the UK’s “transition to clean, green energy and tackle climate change,” said UK energy minister Anne-Marie Trevelyan MP.
Sensorless fault-detection method for rooftop, large-scale solar
Turkish researchers have developed an algorithm to distinguish faults and changes in PV plant output. The sensorless method only uses electrical data gathered from the DC inputs of inverters. They tested it on 8.5 MW of ground-mount PV at nine sites, as well as 8.2 MW across 18 rooftops.Scientists from Turkey s Dokuz Eylul University and Turkish EPC contractor Entegro Enerji Sistemleri have developed a new fault-detection method for large-scale PV plants. They said it works smoothly for both small and large PV systems. They also claimed that it improved operations and maintenance by distinguishing .

Chinese PV Industry Brief: Thinner wafers, rising profits and new solar ambitions for Yunnan Province
Goodwe and Irico have both announced rising revenue and profits for the fiscal year 2020. Zhonghuan Semiconductor intends to produce thinner wafers to respond to increasing polyisilicon prices. The southwestern province of Yunnan wants to add another 15 GW of clean energy to its power generation mix.Chinese inverter manufacturer Goodwe announced on Friday that it expects to achieve revenue of RMB 1.59 billion ($245 million) for fiscal year 2020, which would represent a 68.07% increase from a year earlier. Net profit is forecast to rise by 145.91% year-on-year to reach RMB 2.56 billion (around .

Further calls have come in ahead of next week’s Budget for the Chancellor to not curtail the Green Homes Grant scheme.
This latest letter has been signed by 19 organisations representing or working within the energy efficiency and low carbon heat sector, including Solar Energy UK, the Association for Decentralised Energy (ADE), the National Insulation Association, the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) and the Association for Renewable Energy and Clean Technology (REA).
It stated that premature closure of the Green Homes Grant Scheme would “put jobs in jeopardy, dash the dreams of homeowners and put the UK’s net zero target at significant risk”. This follows reports that the scheme - which is designed to provide vouchers for green home technologies such as solar the
Metal-perovskite-metal back contact solar cell with 4.31% efficiency
A numerical study by researchers at India s Chitkara University has shown enhanced charge extraction in metal-perovskite-metal back-contact solar cell structure through electrostatic doping. The proposed design yielded a 59.4% improvement in power conversion efficiency over previously reported structures.Researchers at Chitkara University in the Indian state of Punjab have proposed an electrostatically-doped back-contact design for perovskite-based solar cells that overcomes the fabrication and performance challenges associated with conventional sandwiched architecture using charge transport .
