PV Guided Tours: Sigenergy presents its system approach for energy and infrastructure projects. From 1,000-volt AC technology to intelligent energy management, the innovations lift both the efficiency and the returns of solar projects.

Professor Martin Green of the University of New South Wales is a leading figure in solar research, holding numerous patents and efficiency records dating back to 1974. Now Chief Scientific Officer at Euronergy, he is focused on developing glass-free, lightweight modules that are exceptionally thin and easy to install.

The module giant's 2026 Shanghai launch stacked eight innovations spanning cells, modules, hardware and software, lifting standard module output above 690 watts, and possibly the whole sector past its ruinous price war.

New Automotive and E-Mobility Europe map close to €200bn in committed capital across vehicles, batteries and charging, with 150,000 jobs already tied to projects now under political pressure.

The cell giant lands behind only Sungrow and Tesla in the analysts' first assessment of storage integrators, which weights corporate substance such as R&D, supply chains and finances above product specifications.

The bloc avoided billions of cubic metres of imported gas over 137 days, according to SolarPower Europe, with solar supplying a quarter of the EU's electricity in June, its largest single power source.

The European Commission's plan targets 46 percent electrification by 2040, with industry groups calling for stronger investment support and an end to double taxation of storage.

A new report from the Croatian Renewable Energy Association maps the barriers holding back a market that has gained traction elsewhere in Europe, from regulatory complexity to the near-absence of municipal and community contracts.

A new whitepaper finds industrial flexibility could cut EU renewables curtailment by 61 percent and avoid 60 GW of peak capacity, while opening new revenue streams for energy-intensive sectors.

A new 54 MW solar park in Saxony-Anhalt has been added to an existing wind farm, sharing the same substation and grid connection and demonstrating how renewables can expand without further straining the network.

Danish developer European Energy has started construction of the Indian Queens project in Cornwall, combining 67.96 MW of solar capacity with a 95 MWh battery system, with revenues secured through a corporate PPA and a capacity market contract.

As synchronous generators retire and inertia drains from the grid, battery storage inverters are inheriting stability tasks once reserved for spinning steel, argues Daniel Gerber of ABB Renewable Power.

SMA met thresholds in market presence, market share, company size and sustainability, one of only twelve manufacturers to qualify from a field of 30.

PV Guided Tours: Speed and simple handling are what installers demand of rooftop mounting. With versatile substructures and just a handful of tools, modules can go onto virtually any roof in record time. Sounds too good to be true? Watch the video.

Roofs and flat open spaces aren't the only options for solar power. Applications that pose particular challenges for project planning and installation technology are increasingly coming into focus.
