The summer edition of pv magazine heads to the beaches in pursuit of the solar advances being developed on island nations across the globe. Ranging from Mauritius to Reunion and from the Caribbean to the Orkneys, we take a look at small-island solar as well as considering new mining techniques to satisfy rising global demand for battery material lithium.

Germany’s cumulative installed PV capacity stood at 92.23 GW at the end of July, spread across approximately 4.25 million PV systems.

Most of the new systems that were built this year are located in North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, and Lower Saxony. Most of the other new installations are represented by unsubsidized projects selected in tenders.
