The global trend towards vertical solar panels and the future of agrovoltaics – expert commentary from Filkab Solar
For decades, agricultural land has been a source of strategic debate, often placing two vital sectors against one another: the production of food and the generation of clean energy. Until recently it was believed that the choice of one will lead to the exclusion of the other, but with the inception of agrivoltaics systems, this debate has been fundamentally changed. Today, technological progress offers a solution, where both industries can mutually help each other. At the center of this development is a relatively new and interesting innovation, which keeps drawing the attention of scientists as well as global renewable energy players – vertical solar panels.

Rochester Electronics extends the life cycle of industry-critical DSP processors through specialized hermetic assembly services
In today’s world there are a multitude of applications for Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) including speech, sound, and imaging products. While many of these products are used in consumer applications, which have short lifecycles, there are other applications such as automotive, medical, and industrial which require DSPs to be available for many years. This poses a challenge for Original Component Manufacturers (OCMs) who, once the product is designed in by the end user, are required to maintain production over extended periods of time. This is both difficult and expensive.
