Solar Power Generation

China is set to build a lunar base at the moon's south pole by 2035, with the project rolling out in two phases. The first phase will conclude by 2035, while a more comprehensive model is expected by 2050. The base will utilise solar, radioisotope, and nuclear generators for power, along with advanced communication networks. Lunar vehicles, includi...

Sri Lanka on Friday awarded the construction of three solar and wind hybrid power generation facilities to an Indian company after scrapping a tender won by a Chinese firm.

He said such consumers will be paid for solar power generation.

Japan's Moon lander has resumed operations, the space agency said on Monday, indicating that power had been restored. After it landed on January 20, JAXA had said that problems with the craft's solar batteries meant they were not generating power.

Japan on Saturday became the fifth country to put a spacecraft on the moon but the probe was not generating solar power, its space agency said, during a mission to prove a "precision" landing technology and revitalise a space programme that

FDI, up to 100 per cent, is permissible through automatic route for the promotion of solar power generation in the country, Minister for New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) R K Singh informed the Rajya Sabha

A greenhouse near Amsterdam is using solar energy to mine Bitcoin, while using the heat generated from the miners to grow tulips. The system helps cut the reliance on gas, as prices increased after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The greenhouse is also selling tulips online for bitcoin via a business called Bitcoinbloem.

The government of Assem on Monday announced it had signed seven agreements with tech giants in the country including Microsoft, Google, Larsen & Toubro and Tata group firms. The MOUs were signed as part of the state government's efforts to train youth in the state and prepare them with digital and business skills, executing greenfield projects in t...

The Adani Group plans to invest $100 billion (roughly Rs. 8,14,200 crore) in renewable energy and data centres, according to company Chairman Gautam Adani. The group plans to interconnect data centres through a series of terrestrial undersea cables drawn at its ports. It also plans to build consumer-based super-apps that will bring hundreds of mill...

IIT Guwahati researchers have developed an optimised control schemes for active power distribution networks as part of efforts to enable coordinated operation of photovoltaic power generation and electric vehicle charging stations. It focuses on addressing the challenges of solar energy, which is intermittent, leading to voltage fluctuation problem...

In an attempt to make Assam self-reliant in green energy, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Tuesday inaugurated the 25 MW generation capacity solar power project at Lalpul in Udalguri district.

The power plant will contribute 28,000 MWH2 annually to the group's manufacturing unit and which is equivalent to the energy required for the production of more than 67,000 units.

A group of Australian researchers have found a way to address the biggest challenge of solar power generation. The researchers have demonstrated that solar power can be generated even at night. It is undoubtedly a major step in "night-time solar" technology.

ReNew Power on Thursday said it has signed five power purchase agreements (PPAs) for the supply of around 1,500 MW electricity generated from solar plants.

Japan's Tokyu Railways' trains running through Shibuya and other stations were switched to power generated only by solar and other renewable sources starting April 1. Renewable energy is also being used to power vending machines, security camera screens, and lighting at the stations.
