In the summer of 2025, a research team from Western University in Canada completed a groundbreaking experiment in an exceptionally hot outdoor environment—growing organic romaine lettuce under the shade of 13 different photovoltaic modules. They found that the lettuce yield under cadmium telluride thin-film photovoltaic modules was more than 400% higher than the unshaded control group and 200% higher than the national average yield in a typical local year!

When the capacity of the power batteries in new energy vehicles decays to around 80%, they can no longer meet the complex driving requirements and high power demands of vehicles, and are thus "retired." However, these batteries are not entirely useless; they still retain a considerable amount of remaining capacity. Secondary utilization involves testing, classifying, disassembling, and reassembling these retired batteries to create secondary products suitable for applications with lower energy density and power requirements.

Data shows that Spain's newly installed self-consumption photovoltaic (PV) system capacity in 2025 totaled 1,139 MW, a 3.7% decrease compared to 2024. This brought Spain's total self-consumption PV capacity to 9.3 GW.

In the third and fourth quarters of 2025, the price of solar power purchase agreements signed in North America rose by 3.2% to a high of $61.67 per megawatt-hour.

According to a solar researcher at Rystad Energy, the cost of manufacturing solar modules in China will rise in the first half of 2026, although module prices may fall again before the end of the year.

Recently, a Thai customer completed two photovoltaic energy storage systems using SUNROVER products and they are now generating electricity. Both systems utilize SUNROVER's high-voltage rack-mount lithium batteries as their core, paired with Solis high-voltage energy storage inverters, achieving seamless integration and perfect operation with high efficiency and reliability.

Photovoltaic heating offers a new solution to this problem. It retains the advantages of electric heating—cleanliness and convenience—while significantly reducing operating costs by utilizing free solar power.

In fact, this "power outage" is nothing new in Japan; large-scale power outages occur almost every year.

As is well known, Japan is an island nation located in an earthquake zone. Combined with the complexity and unique characteristics of its power structure, this means that Japan's power system frequently faces sudden instability.

With the rapid development of renewable energy, energy storage technology, as a key means to address the imbalance between energy supply and demand and ensure the stable operation of the power grid, is gradually receiving widespread attention.

Energy Management Systems (EMS), as a core component, are playing an increasingly important role. This article will provide an in-depth introduction to the composition of energy storage EMS systems.

Recently, SUNROVER's Iran overseas market manager, along with the SUNROVER operations and maintenance engineering team, visited a customer site in Iran to conduct a detailed survey of a 4MW large-scale ground-mounted photovoltaic power plant and held in-depth discussions with the customer regarding the project.
