The Israeli solar technology company is using its Intersolar anniversary showcase to signal a shift toward fully integrated, software-led energy management across solar, storage and EV charging for both residential and commercial customers.

The Energie One, a 10 kW and 10 kWh residential package combining a high-voltage hybrid inverter, modular battery storage and home energy management, is among the highlights on the SKYWORTH Solar stand.

Podcast: The Energy Center from ESS Inc. in Oregon is an iron flow storage system offering 1.16 MWh of capacity and 174 kW of maximum charging power. Housed in a single container, the modular unit is designed for a range of commercial and grid applications. Alan Greenshields, Director EMEA at ESS, discusses long-duration storage and the role of redox flow technology using sustainable materials such as iron, salt and water.

As Europe weighs supply chain dependencies and cybersecurity concerns, Chinese manufacturers are moving beyond TOPCon and back-contact technologies towards a new generation of tandem cell technology, observes Gerard Scheper.

RCBC is acting as sole lender on the PHP 4.5 billion facility, equivalent to around €66 million, backing a 99 MW solar and battery project in Iloilo province, with first power expected in the second quarter of 2027.

A new report from Eurelectric drawing on 61 companies and 30 projects sets out an integrated partnership model designed to turn fragmented industrial electrification decisions into coordinated, system-level delivery.

Solar fire safety specialist ArcBox is broadening its European presence with additional sales managers, a new regional office in Cologne and its first exhibit at Intersolar Europe in June.

A €18.9 million financing package will support construction of the solar installation at Hellenic Halyvourgia's steelworks, covering around 20% of electricity needs and cutting annual carbon emissions by more than 22,000 tonnes.

Spain's Ingeteam will use the European Investment Bank funding to advance grid integration, power electronics and energy storage, with the work partly aimed at reducing dependence on non-European suppliers.

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.

The Danish developer has promoted Rene Alcaraz Frederiksen, previously head of its Mitsui joint venture, and brought in former Maersk and Topsoe executive Torben Nørgaard to lead offtake and partnership work.

Podcast: Cybersecurity is a critical issue for inverters and solar storage. Uri Sadot, Cybersecurity Programme Director at SolarEdge and Chair of Digitalisation at SolarPower Europe, outlines system vulnerabilities, recent incidents and the urgent need for preventive action. He warns: caution blocks criminal access, while hesitation invites costly failures and grid disruptions.

PV Guided Tours: Solis offers a broad portfolio of inverters for residential and C&I. A standout highlight is the new hybrid inverter with 125 kilowatts of power and ten MPP trackers. On the service side, the company is increasingly focusing on AI capable of responding in real time – a clear benefit for installers and consumers.

Presented in Berlin, the updated guide from Nürtingen-Geislingen University sets out design, vegetation and structural criteria for combining photovoltaics with green roofs, drawn from real-world reference projects.

Energy crises and rising fossil and nuclear prices are making solar and battery storage more attractive than ever, driving demand across industrial rooftops, open land and car parks – find out more in the latest guide.
