AGL and Risen Energy Empowers Australia's First HJT Solar Farm at Canally
The Canally Solar Farm represents a major leap forward with its deployment of Risen Energy's HJT Hyper-ion Module, RSM110-8-580BHDG. Approximately 11,000 panels have been installed as part of this groundbreaking initiative. These high-performance modules deliver an output power of 580Wp and are designed to operate efficiently within a temperature range of -40 to 85 degrees Celsius, addressing the prevalent heat risks in the country. Risen Energy's HJT modules boast a remarkable degradation rate of 0.3% per year, along with an impressive temperature co-efficient as low as -0.24%/℃, guaranteeing enhanced yield and returns for renewable projects.
Risen Energy's technology choice underscores a strategic shift towards more sustainable and efficient energy solutions capable of withstanding harsh environmental conditions. The use of HJT technology is expected to set new standards in the industry and foster wider adoption across other regions.
"It's another milestone for us to elevate the HJT technology to a broader platform. We aspire to revolutionize solar energy utilization in Australia and globally, reshaping industry benchmarks. Our mission is to enhance the energy structure through technological innovation and improve the quality of life for people everywhere," stated Bryan Qin, Sales Director at Risen Energy Australia.
As forecasted by AGL, combined with a 5MWh battery system, the project will significantly cut the Canally Almond Orchard's diesel consumption by 85%, leading to a reduction of approximately 10,900 tonnes of Scope 1 CO2-e emissions per year. This reduction is equivalent to taking more than 3,000 cars off the roads annually.
"The completion of module installation at Canally Solar Farm marks a key milestone in AGL's commitment to investing in innovative and sustainable energy solutions," said Brendan Weinert, Head of Sustainable Business Energy Solutions at AGL Energy. "Partnering with Risen Energy and integrating HJT technology into this project allows us to push the boundaries of performance and efficiency, while delivering meaningful environmental benefits for our customer operations and the broader community. We're excited about the role Canally will play in shaping the future of renewable energy in Australia."
The success of Canally Solar Farm provides both motivation and validation for future HJT PV projects in Australia and worldwide. Looking ahead, Risen Energy continues its dedication towards technological innovation aimed at optimizing module efficiency further aiding global efforts toward an energy transition.

Trump's latest plan to undo the ‘holy grail' of climate rules: Never mind the science
The effort to repeal the endangerment finding, if successful, would represent President Donald Trump's most sweeping attempt to dismantle climate change policies and push his 'energy dominance' agenda, which focuses on expanding U.S. fossil fuel production. The move, combined with the Trump administration's planned effort to ditch vehicle tailpipe pollution rules governing transportation and its proposal to end U.S. power plant emissions limits, would deliver a major blow to the U.S. effort to halt global temperature rise. The United States has contributed more than any other nation to the 1.3 degrees Celsius of warming that the world has experienced since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, and it is currently the second-largest polluter, behind China. While EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has been the public face for eradicating what he has called 'the holy grail of the climate change religion,' he is far from alone in drafting the proposal that would fulfill a years-long quest by conservatives to undo climate rules they argue raise costs for consumers, constrain fossil fuel-driven electricity and punish automakers and other manufacturers. The Office of Management and Budget has taken a leading role in the process, according to Myron Ebell, who led Trump's first EPA transition team, and two people familiar with the discussions. The Justice Department has also helped shape the draft, which relies on a legal rather than scientific rationale to topple the endangerment finding, according to the two people as well as another individual granted anonymity to discuss the draft rule. Going the legal route to end the endangerment finding will come amid fresh headwinds. The United Nations International Court of Justice on Wednesday ruled that climate change poses an 'urgent and existential threat' — a non-binding opinion that will likely factor into court cases around the world. The court said countries must cooperate to keep temperatures from rising 1.5 degrees above preindustrial levels, adding that failing to do so could violate international law. The court also said that leaving the 2015 Paris climate agreement, which Trump has said the U.S. will exit, does not excuse countries from their obligations to curb warming.

For hope on climate change, UN chief is putting his faith in market forces
NEW YORK (AP) — For nearly a decade United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has been using science to warn about evermore dangerous climate change in increasingly urgent tones. Now he's enlisting something seemingly more important to the world's powerful: Money. In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, Guterres hailed the power of market forces in what he repeatedly called 'a battle' to save the planet. He pointed to two new UN reports showing the plummeting cost of solar and wind power and the growing generation and capacity of those green energy sources. He warned those who cling to fossil fuels that they could go broke doing it. 'Science and the economy show the way,' Guterres said in a 20-minute interview in his 38th-floor conference room overlooking the New York skyline. 'What we need is the political will to take the decisions that are necessary in regulatory frameworks, in financial aspects, in other policy dimensions. Governments need to take decisions not to be an obstacle to the natural trend to accelerate the renewables transition.' That means by the end of the fall governments need to come up with new plans to fight climate change that are compatible with the global goal of limiting warming and ones that apply to the their entire economy and include all greenhouse gases, Guterres said. But don't expect one from the United States. President Donald Trump has pulled out of the landmark Paris climate agreement, slashed efforts to boost renewable energy and made fossil fuels a priority, including the dirtiest one in terms of climate and health, coal. 'Obviously, the (Trump) administration in itself is an obstacle, but there are others. The government in the U.S. doesn't control everything,' Guterres said. Sure, Trump pulled out of the Paris accord, but many states and cities are trying to live up to the Biden administration's climate-saving goals by reducing the burning of coal, oil and natural gas that release heat-trapping gases, Guterres said. Invest in fossil fuels, risk stranded assets? 'People do not want to lose money. People do not want to make investments in what will become stranded assets,' Guterres said. 'And I believe that even in the United States, we will go on seeing a reduction of emissions, I have no doubt about it.' He said any new investments in exploring for new fossil fuel deposits 'will be totally lost' and called them 'just a waste of money.' 'I'm perfectly convinced that we will never be able, in the history of humankind, to spend all the oil and gas that was already discovered,' Guterres said. But amid the hope of the renewable reports, Guterres said the world is still losing its battle on climate change, in danger of permanently passing 1.5 degree Celsius (2.7 degree Fahrenheit) warming since preindustrial times. That threshold is what the Paris agreement set up as a hoped-for global limit to warming 10 years ago. Many scientists have already pronounced the 1.5 threshold dead. Indeed, 2024 passed that mark, though scientists say it requires a 20-year average, not a single year, to consider the threshold breached. A scientific study from researchers who often work with the U.N. last month said the world is spewing so much carbon dioxide that sometime in early 2028, a couple years earlier than once predicted, passing the 1.5 mark will become scientifically inevitable. Guterres: 'We need to go on fighting' even as it looks bleak Guterres hasn't given up on the 1.5 degree goal yet, though he said it looks bad. 'We see the acceleration of different aspects of climate change., rising seas, glaciers melting, heat waves, storms of different kinds," he said. 'We need to go on fighting,' he said. 'I think we are on the right side of history.' Guterres, who spoke to AP after addressing the U.N. Security Council on the Israeli occupation of Gaza, said there's only one way to solve that seemingly intractable issue: An immediate ceasefire, a release of all remaining hostages, access for humanitarian relief and 'paving the way for a serious political process leading to the two-state solution. Some people say the two-state solution is now becoming extremely difficult. Even some saying it's impossible. But the question is, what is the alternative?' Gaza, Ukraine and Sudan are all crises, Guterres said, but climate change is an existential problem for the entire planet. And he said people don't realize how climate-caused droughts and extreme weather can feed poverty and terrorism. He pointed to the Sahel as an example. 'We see that people live in worse and worse conditions, less and less capacity to grow their crops, less and less capital,' he said. 'And this is largely due to climate change.' 'Everything is interlinked: Climate change, artificial intelligence, geopolitical divides, the problems of inequality and injustice,' Guterres said. 'And we need to make sure that we make progress in all of them at the same time.'
