New metric shows renewables are 53% cheaper than nuclear power

PV Magazine (International) Apr 17, 2026 by Brian Publicover
Processed Solar_Renewables

A new metric for assessing total system costs puts a least-cost mix of offshore wind and solar at about €46 ($54.20)/MWh in a future climate-neutral energy system for Denmark. Researchers tell <b>pv magazine</b> that figure is less than half the equivalent cost of nuclear under the same conditions.

Fraunhofer ISE-led researchers demonstrated zinc-doped tin oxide (ZTO) as an indium-free alternative to indium tin oxide (ITO) for recombination layers in fully textured perovskite–silicon tandem solar cells. ZTO delivers comparable device efficiencies of 27–28% under current-matching conditions, offering a scalable, indium-free pathway for high-performance tandem photovoltaics without efficiency loss.

La herramienta calcula la compensación por cambiar calefacción de combustión fósil por aerotermia. El usuario puede recuperar hasta el 60% de la inversión gracias a los certificados, valorados entre 0,115 y 0,14 € por kWh, con plazos de cobro de dos a cuatro meses. Iberdrola y Baxi han lanzado iniciativas similares para impulsar la aerotermia en el mercado residencial.

Cyclones and unseasonal polar winds shape Australia’s solar resource in March

PV Magazine (International) Apr 17, 2026 by pv magazine
Processed Solar_Renewables

In a new weekly update for <b>pv magazine</b>, Solcast, a DNV company, reports that March in Australia was unusually wet and disrupted, with frequent tropical cyclones, polar air intrusions, and repeated low-pressure systems causing widespread cloud, storms, and record cold in the southeast. Solar irradiance was mixed: below average in the south due to persistent cloud and storms, but near or above average on some northern and coastal regions where breaks between systems allowed recovery.

Spray cooling for floating PV

PV Magazine (International) Apr 17, 2026 by Lior Kahana
Processed Solar_Renewables

A research team in Germany developed a dynamic model of spray cooling for floating PV systems that couples thermal behavior, electrical performance, and active cooling, and validated it against a 750 kW installation. Simulations across four climates showed that spray cooling reduces module temperatures by up to 42% and improves energy yield by up to 3.8%, with benefits strongly dependent on local conditions.
