Professor Bo Zhao of the University of Houston has reported on the development of a new form of solar energy collection technology called thermophotovoltaics (STPV) which has achieved record-breaking efficiency levels.
[pdf] Since entering the project development business in 2010, Canadian Solar has developed, built, and connected over 12 GWp of solar power projects and 6 GWh of battery energy storage projects across the world. The Company has two business segments: CSI Solar and Recurrent Energy.
[pdf] The project involves the design, supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of a 10 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) plant integrated with a 20 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) and a 33 kV evacuation line. The hybrid system will be developed on a 290-hectare site in Garowe, Puntland.
