Net Metering’s Unseen Consequences November 12, 2024 Seeking Equity in Renewable Energy Transition By Asim Javed The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) implemented Distributed Generation and Net Metering Regulations in September 2015, which enable consumers to connect photovoltaic systems to the grid. The objective of these regulations was to encourage the use of renewable solar energy and to allow consumers to lower their electricity bills by utilising the grid as a virtual battery. Solar households can transfer surplus energy to the grid during the day and retrieve it at…

Solar panel world record achieved with ‘miracle material’
Solar panel world record achieved with ‘miracle material’ June 19, 2024 A new efficiency world record for converting sunlight into electricity has been set, in what researchers claim is a huge boost for renewable energy. Researchers at Longi, the world’s biggest solar panel manufacturer, achieved a 34.6 per cent power conversion efficiency using a tandem perovskite-silicon solar cell, beating the previous record by 0.7 per cent. The new record is also more than 7 per cent more efficient than the record for a standard silicon solar cell, which is found in most commercial solar…
