A bifacial solar cell (BSC) is a photovoltaic that can produce electrical energy from both front and rear side. In contrast, monofacial solar cells produce electrical energy only when photons are incident on their front side. Bifacial solar cells and (devices that consist of multiple solar cells) can improve the electric energy output and modify the temporal power production profile co.

Solar power in Chile is an increasingly important source of energy. Total installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity in Chile reached 11.05 GW in 2023. In 2024, Solar energy provided 19.92 TWh of electricity generation in Chile, accounting for 22.3% of total national electricity grid generation, compared to less than 0.1% in 2013. In October 2015 Chile's Ministry of Energy announced its "Roadmap to 2050: A Sustainable an.

France is aiming to increase its solar PV capacity from 11.5 GW in March 2021 to 23 GW by the end of 2023. The country offers for small-scale solar PV up to 100 kWp on rooftops for self-consumption, with a specific grid tariff for collective users and exemption from the domestic tax on electricity for projects under 1 MW. However, a proposal to reduce solar PV subsidies for ongoing projects until 2030 has created controversy, affecting the sector's growth.
