Challenges and opportunities for lithium-ion battery recycling in India
A new study examines the current status of lithium-ion battery consumption, and challenges and opportunities in the Indian recycling landscape.
Bridging the digital divide: The reality of transformation in renewable energy
Digital adoption across the renewable energy value chain reveals a stark imbalance. Operations and maintenance (O&M) has embraced digitalization most enthusiastically, with SCADA systems and IoT-enabled devices revolutionizing efficiency through real-time monitoring and resource optimization. However, engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) processes remain surprisingly under-digitized despite their critical importance.
U.S. government raises tariffs on imports from Chinese solar producers operating in Vietnam
The U.S. Department of Commerce dramatically increased tariffs on imports from Chinese solar producers operating in Vietnam after the agency concluded that China is subsidizing raw materials for its companies to use in their Vietnamese factories.
Bondada Engineering targets 10 GW renewable energy, storage portfolio by 2030
The solar EPC solutions provider also plans to expand its footprint to international markets in renewable energy sector.
Global solar installations could reach 1 TW next year
BloombergNEF reports the world installed nearly 600 GW of solar power in 2024, closely aligning with projections that annual global solar installations will surpass 1 TW within the next few years. Although projections for 2025 currently fall short of that pace, early forecasts often underestimate actual deployment.
Solar exceeds 10% of U.S. electricity generation capacity
Solar dominates project queues through 2028, said data from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
Telangana’s 250 MW/500 MWh battery storage tender yields L1 price of INR 2.40 lakh/MW/month
