Localizing for Resilience: PV Hardware Doubles Down on US Manufacturing with New Texas Facility
In a strategic move underscoring the importance of the US solar market and the push for domestic supply chain security, Spanish solar tracker manufacturer PV Hardware (PVH) has expanded its American manufacturing footprint with a new 95,000-square-foot facility in Houston, Texas.


The Propane Revolution Goes Commercial: Aermec Launches R290 Heat Pumps for Industrial Use
The global push to phase down high-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants is accelerating, moving beyond residential applications into the heart of commercial and industrial (C&I) HVAC. UK-based Aermec, part of the Italian Giordano Riello Group, has made a significant entry into this market with the launch of two new heat pump series that exclusively use propane (R290), a natural refrigerant with an ultra-low GWP of 3.


The Software-Defined Heat Pump: Canadian Startup Jetson Launches with 24/7 Monitoring and Subscription Model
The residential heat pump market is undergoing a seismic shift, moving from a hardware-centric replacement for gas furnaces to an intelligent, connected home energy manager. Canadian startup Jetson has entered the fray with a product that encapsulates this shift: the Jetson Air, a heat pump system built not just on refrigerant cycles, but on a foundation of software, data, and continuous updates.

The Sodium-Ion Era Begins: Freen Launches Scalable Commercial & Residential Storage Systems
Estonian company Freen OÜ has thrown down the gauntlet with the commercial launch of its scalable sodium-ion battery storage systems, marking a pivotal moment for European energy independence and diversifying the technology powering our clean energy transition.

Invisible Power: Lumon’s eRailing Turns Balcony Glass into a Secret Solar Power Plant
The balcony power plant market is booming, offering renters and condo owners a simple path to energy independence. But a common complaint remains: the aesthetic impact. Traditional balcony modules, while functional, can look like an afterthought, bolted onto the sleek design of a modern building.

Huasun's 34% Efficient Tandem Solar Cell: A Leap Towards the Future of Solar
The race to break the efficiency ceiling of silicon solar cells has a new milestone. Chinese manufacturer Huasun Energy has announced a staggering 34.02% power conversion efficiency for its perovskite-on-silicon heterojunction (HJT) tandem solar cell.


Beyond the Hail Stamp: New "Resiliency Curve" Test Revolutionizes Solar Panel Safety Ratings
For years, the solar industry has relied on a simplistic pass/fail hail test—often the UL 61730 standard which fires a 1-inch ice ball at 52 mph at a few specific points on a panel. While better than nothing, this binary test has left developers, insurers, and manufacturers in the dark about a crucial question: How much hail can a panel actually withstand before it breaks?


Sungrow Shakes Up the Microinverter Market with New High-Capacity S2500S-L Model
The microinverter segment, long dominated by a few key players, is getting a serious new contender. Sungrow, a global titan in solar inverters and energy storage, has officially thrown its hat into the ring with the launch of the Sungrow S2500S-L at Intersolar South America 2025.


Conquering the Dunes: JA Solar Launches DesertBlue, a 650W TOPCon Module Built for Harsh Environments
The next frontier of large-scale solar deployment lies in the world's arid and desert regions. These areas offer abundant sunlight and vast tracts of land but present a brutal set of challenges for photovoltaic modules. Addressing this head-on, JA Solar has launched DesertBlue, a purpose-built, high-power TOPCon module series engineered to thrive where conventional panels would falter.
