For solar projects in 2025, finding space on crowded electricity networks is a major concern. Many are looking to co-located storage as a solution, but vertically-installed bifacial PV modules offer another potential route to delivering PV energy at different times of the day. As PV penetration in mature markets surpass 15% (Germany, 2024), we see that the effect…
