Chinese scientists build ‘ultra-stable’ polymer solar cell with 19.1% efficiency: The polymer solar cell is able to retain 97% of its performance after 2,000 hours in air. By blending small-molecule… https://t.co/Um7nfYyJE0 #Photovoltaics#EnergyStorage#RenewableEnergy
The shareholder of Varun Beverages says it has agreed a joint venture with energy companies INOX Clean Energy and SkyPower for a 500MW solar power plant in Zimbabwe.
Ravi Jaipuria, currently in Zim, says his company, RJ Corp, plans to start work on an initial 200MW this year.
Africa’s First Lithium Sulphate Plant Reaches Commissioning Stage in Zimbabwe.
Africa’s first lithium sulphate plant, developed by Prospect Lithium Zimbabwe (PLZ), has entered the equipment commissioning phase.
Backed by a US$1 billion investment, the project has been built into a modern industrial complex in just three years. It employs over 2,000 local workers and is strengthening Zimbabwe’s position in the global battery value chain.
Beyond industrial output, the project is driving socio-economic impact through sustained investment in local infrastructure, environmental management, education, and healthcare, reinforcing industrialisation and community development.
🇺🇸🇨🇳 TESLA PATENTED THE HOLY GRAIL OF LITHIUM REFINING, AND CHINA'S ENTIRE CHOKEHOLD IS CRACKING
Tesla's new patent isn't an improvement.
It's a full execution of the old lithium refining model.
They figured out how to generate the soda ash reagent on-site from the CO2 waste produced during calcination, turning the biggest emissions into the exact chemical needed for the leach process.
Result:
- ~30% lower refining costs
- 0 hazardous sodium-sulfate waste
- Near-0 external soda ash purchases
- Massive reduction in energy and water use
This is the refinery equivalent of discovering how to turn exhaust fumes into gasoline while you're driving.
China controls 60% of global lithium refining and almost all soda ash supply chains; they’ve been weaponizing both for years.
Tesla built the bypass.
Every other lithium producer is now officially obsolete.
Tesla batteries are about to get even cheaper, even greener, and completely independent of Beijing's mood swings.

🚨 Big win for clean energy in Zimbabwe!
UK-based @InfraCoAfrica has signed a landmark agreement with the Ministry of Energy for a 30MW solar project at Vungu. ☀️
Here’s why this matters… 🧵🇿🇼🤝🇬🇧 #GreenGrowth
Renewables are booming, especially solar. But what to do with all the potential energy surplus? A serious contender: electric vehicles.
A thread on why we absolutely need flexibility from EV and dynamic tariffs.
