Solar energy has progressed greatly since 1980, and in 2025, 45 years later, it will mark a major milestone in its evolution. If you’re considering making the switch to solar this year, here’s everything you need to know about the latest trends, benefits, and options available. [pdf]
The price of solar panels changes depending on where you live, but the average for installation is just under $29,000 or $2.75 per watt. On the high end, we talked to a solar customer in Hawaii who spent $100,000 going solar. [pdf]

A 10kW Solar Kit requires up to 650 square feet of space. 10kW or 10 kilowatts is 10,000 watts of DC direct current power. This could produce an estimated 1,350 kilowatt hours (kWh) of alternating current (AC) power per month, assuming at least 5 sun hours per day with the solar array facing South. [pdf]
A silicon was first patented in 1946 by when working at and first publicly demonstrated at the same research institution by , , and in 1954; however, these first proposals were monofacial cells and not designed to have their rear face active. The first bifacial solar cell theoretically proposed is in a Japanese patent with a priority date 4 October 1960, by Hiroshi Mori, when working for the company [pdf]
A bifacial solar cell (BSC) is any photovoltaic that can produce electrical energy when illuminated on either of its surfaces, front or rear. In contrast, monofacial solar cells produce electrical energy only when photons impinge on their front side. Bifacial solar cells can make use of radiation, which is useful for applications where a lot of light is reflected on surfaces such as roof. [pdf]

● Features high-efficiency 10BB A-grade cells with 22.8% conversion rate, offering superior performance compared to 5BB panels. ● Designed for longevity with corrosion-resistant aluminum frame and IP67-rated waterproof junction box and connectors for reliable outdoor use. [pdf]
In 2011, the Cypriot target of , including both photovoltaics and , was a combined 7% of electricity by 2020. While Cyprus saw a 16% increase in solar panel installations in a 2021 report, the country still grapples with low renewable energy usage, standing at 13.8%, compared to the EU average of 19.7% in 2019.

Policymakers in some of the world’s largest economies are reducing support for solar power generation. Even so, Goldman Sachs Research expects rapid growth in the sector, with global solar installations set to rise to 914 Gigawatts (Gw) in 2030, 57% above 2024 levels. [pdf]

We rank the 8 best solar batteries of 2023 and explore some things to consider when adding battery storage to a solar system. .
Naming a single “best solar battery” would be like trying to name “The Best Car” – it largely depends on what you’re looking for. Some homeowners are looking for. .
Frankly, there is a lot to consider when choosing a solar battery. The industry jargon doesn’t help and neither does the fact that most battery features are things we. Yes, lithium batteries can be used with solar panels as a viable power storage source. Lithium Ion (Li-ion) technology provides an ideal balance between energy density, safety, life cycle, and cost efficiency. This makes it well-suited for use in combination with solar panel systems.

Solar photovoltaic power can effectively be harnessed providing huge scalability in India. Solar also provides the ability to generate power on a distributed basis and enables rapid capacity addition with short lead times. [pdf]
Bifacial Technology Delivers Significant Energy Gains: 550W bifacial panels can generate 15-30% more electricity than traditional monofacial panels by capturing light from both front and rear surfaces, with optimal installations achieving total outputs of 633W to 715W under ideal conditions. [pdf]
Guatemala is aggressively expanding its solar energy capacity, aiming to add 100 MW of new solar power in 2025. This ambitious target is projected to increase solar’s share in the national energy mix from a modest 2% in 2022 to a more substantial 8% by 2027. [pdf]
