establish a permanent presence on the moon. How these outposts can be supplied with energy during the long moonlit night is one of the important questions in the preparation. It would be difficult with solar cells alone because the energy would have to be stored in large, heavy batteries for up to 14 days. The head of the space agency Roscosmos, Yuri Borisov, has now...
how it plans to finance the development of its production in the USA. What does that mean specifically? [...] Which plant exactly does Meyer Burger want to close? In Germany, Meyer Burger produces solar cells at its factory in Thalheim, a district of Bitterfeld in Saxony-Anhalt. Around 350 employees work there. Modules are manufactured in Freiberg in Saxony, in Hohenstein-Ernstthal,...
jobs will be lost in industry and gained in other sectors. [...] Should Meyer Burger get state aid? No. Nobody has ever been able to explain to me why we need solar cell production in Germany. Because we need solar panels. But this is a mass product. We might as well subsidize warm sweaters if you can't get from China in the winter...
From an economic point of view, less so, but from a geopolitical point of view I definitely see a need to strengthen the solar industry in Europe. Not only producers of solar modules and solar cells like Meyer Burger, but also manufacturers of upstream products. But of course you should pay attention to whether costs and benefits are in harmony and look at how the industry is developing and...

Since 2022, farmers have been experimenting with how animal husbandry or vegetable growing could work under solar panels. Agri-photovoltaics (agri-PV) is the name of the concept in which farming under solar cells should remain possible. In Agri-PV systems, the panels are usually mounted higher than conventional ground-mounted solar systems. This means that additional agricultural products can be...
