NASA instrument to study the mysterious origins of the solar wind
Perhaps most notable is NASA''s Parker Solar Probe, which in 2021 became the first spacecraft to fly through the corona. But Parker samples the outermost parts of the corona at a distance of about 10 solar radii, whereas other solar telescopes zoom in on its innermost parts. CODEX will target the middle corona, between about 2.75 and 10 solar
Solar-powered trains: the future of rail?
But this is not the only existing model. In India, for example, trains have solar power on their roofs and in 2017, the city of Guwahati became host to the first station in the country to be 100% solar-powered. The local government is further working to adopt solar PV at 8,500 stations in the coming years.
Greenrail: turning sleepers into solar power stations
An Italian startup backed by EU funding hopes to revolutionise the railway industry by turning its tracks into clean energy powerhouses.

How much solar PV does France have?
The French government awarded 912MWp of solar PV in its most recent ground-mounted solar tender, which closed this week. The capacity in the fifth instalment of the government’s PPE2 tender (Programmation Pluriannuelle de l’Energie) was spread across 92 projects, covering almost the entirety of the 925MW maximum tendered capacity.
How much solar power does France have in 2022?
Solar power in France including overseas territories reached an installed capacity figure of 11.2 GW in 2020, and rose further to 17.1 GW at the end of 2022. Government plans announced in 2022 foresee solar PV capacity in France rising to 100 GW by 2050.
Is France a good country for solar power?
In 2016, France was ranked 4th in the EU by installed capacity and 14th in terms of PV capacity by inhabitant at 107.3 Wp/Inhab compared to the EU average of 197.8 Wp/Inhab for the year. The country's largest completed solar park to date was the 300 MW Cestas Solar Park.
How much does solar cost in France?
A French law passed in 2023 will require parking lots larger than 50,000 square feet (4,600 m 2) to build solar canopies covering half their area. This could result in installed capacity of 6.75–11.25 gigawatts, at a cost of $8.7–14.6 billion. The insolation in France ranges from 3 sun hours/day in the north to 5 sun hours/day in the south.
How much insolation does France have?
The insolation in France ranges from 3 sun hours/day in the north to 5 sun hours/day in the south. The output of a solar array is a function of age, temperature, tilt, shading, tracking, and insolation. France is aiming to increase its solar PV capacity from 11.5 GW in March 2021 to 23 GW by the end of 2023.
Are French solar installations bolstered by a new law?
Beyond falling prices, the IEA PVPS report said solar installations were bolstered by the measures introduced in the French government’s Law for the Acceleration of Renewable Energies which came into force in 2023. A requirement that competitive tender winners share some of the added value with locals.
