  National Vaccine Day in India, also known as 'Rashtriya Swasthya Suraksha Adhyapan Divas' or 'National Immunization Day', is observed on March 16th each year. This day commemorates the successful eradication of polio in India. It was on March 16, 2014, that India was officially declared polio-free by the World Health Organization (WHO). National Vaccine Day serves as a reminder of the importance of vaccination in preventing diseases and promoting public health. On this day, various awareness programs, vaccination campaigns, and events are organized across the country to highlight the significance of vaccines in protecting individuals and communities from infectious diseases. This day commemorates the remarkable discovery of the vaccine for the deadly infectious disease, smallpox, by the renowned Indian scientist, Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy. Dr.B.C. Roy successfully administered the first dose of the smallpox vaccine in India on March 16, 1947, which marked a signifi...

  Huasun and Feedgy have announced the launch of new solar modules for agrivoltaics   With a focus on this growing segment in Europe, these modules offer a power range of 300 W to 320 W   Huasun has provided 96 pieces of its HJT cells for this semi-transparent AgriPV module   Chinese heterojunction (HJT) solar cell and module producer Huasun Energy has launched new semi-transparent solar modules especially for the growing agrivoltaics segment in Europe. It has developed these in collaboration with French energy solutions provider Feedgy that estimates the global agrivoltaics market to grow to €8.6 billion by 2031, up from €3.3 billion in 2021.   An October 2023 report by the EU’s JRC said the bloc can exceed its 720 GW DC solar generation target for 2030 using only 1% of farmland to accommodate solar projects ( see  Agrivoltaics Can Help Exceed Targets Under EU Solar Strategy ).   The 2 partners call it the 1 st  HJT semi-transparent module tailor...

  The encapsulant is an integral part of a solar PV module, commonly referred to as a solar panel. Among other functions, it provides cushioning to the PV cells and binds them to the top surface (glass) and rear surface (glass or backsheet) of the module. Over the years, two popular materials, EVA (Ethyl Vinyl Acetate) and POE (Polyolefin Elastomer) , have been widely used for PV encapsulation. However, due to certain limitations associated with each material, encapsulation material suppliers have engineered a new solution called EPE (EVA-POE-EVA) encapsulant – a multilayer construction that combines the best properties of both materials. In this article, we will explore the properties of EVA and POE encapsulants and how the EPE encapsulant addresses their shortcomings, as well as the increasing applications of EPE in modern cell architectures. Limitations of EVA and POE EVA is a thermoplastic polymer with superior adhesive properties and excellent optical transmission. However, i...
