The Q4 2022 edition of our downstream solar journal, PV Tech Power, is now available to download, including comprehensive coverage of efforts to diversify the supply chain.

The cover story of volume 33 details how solar manufacturers in markets such as the US, India and Europe are looking to leverage policy support to scale up production and take advantage of soaring domestic module demand.

As well as looking at how solar players can benefit from various tax credits included in the US’s Inflation Reduction Act, this issue reveals how satellites can provide more reliable insights into the construction of utility-scale PV projects in the country.

As always, ‘Storage & Smart Power’, the section of the journal contributed by Energy-Storage.news returns too. Feature articles in the latest edition are:

As energy costs rise, the weather grows more unpredictable and infrastructure ages, commercial and industrial (C&I) sectors face mounting pressure to stay agile. Energy storage is an important and versatile tool to help manage onsite power quality and reliability, reduce energy costs and enable the greater adoption of locally produced renewable energy. However, given the broad and technically demanding range of applications C&I energy storage solutions can provide, which technology is best suited for your needs? Join us for a webinar exploring how Honeywell’s energy storage technologies are helping businesses adapt in real time by boosting resilience, managing costs through energy arbitrage and advancing energy efficiency goals.
