A Biohaus Foundation truck packed with solar modules and batteries is due to leave Paderborn for five sites across Ukraine. Among them are hospitals in Kyiv, Sumy and Trostianets, which will need power they can rely on as winter approaches.

CEO Talk: The European energy storage market is growing dynamically, and so are the demands on profitability, safety and system integration. We find out how Ampace is positioning itself in this environment, the role Europe plays for the company, and which advances and technologies are set to shape the market next.

How do you convince a CFO to commit to a fixed electricity price for the long term? At RE-Source 2026, a panel of buyers, sellers and advisers set out what works, what fails and why the internal process often matters more than the deal itself.

As global battery storage grows towards 500–700 GWh by 2030, ACCURE’s Valentin Lorscheid argues that reactive operations and single-vendor monitoring are eroding returns, and explains how operators can get ahead.

From 12 to 14 January, Ptak Warsaw Expo will host the sixth edition of the show, with Huawei Polska, Sigenergy and Ingeteam among the exhibitors, and a dedicated zone for installers looking for new partners.

Solar cannibalisation, stalled grids and a second year of falling contract volumes set the backdrop for the conference, where buyers and sellers looked to hybrid deals and system-wide flexibility.

After a sweeping regulatory overhaul, business is picking up again, though connection problems are still holding many projects back, the 8th Renewable & Storage Forum in Athens heard.

Venture capitalists are back and putting larger sums into fewer early-stage companies, while acquisitions and new EU cybersecurity rules are changing how startups grow.

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.

Europe's grid queues hold 1,700 GW of stalled projects. Sharing connections between wind and PV could ease the bottleneck, but regulation, permitting and grid operators keep hybrid parks a rarity, explains Philipp Rasche of ENEO.

From shared connection points to AI-driven trading: two very different perspectives on Europe's grid capacity problem, and how developers and operators can make better use of existing grid capacity, cut curtailment losses and lift returns on renewable assets.

A growing number of hacker attacks is exposing weak points in solar systems. Operators who act early can keep attackers out, while delay risks costly failures and disruption to the grid.

With 406 GW of solar online and a few cloud platforms steering much of the fleet, Brussels advisers want tighter rules on where inverters and firmware come from, and who supplies them.

CEO Talk: Installers and EPCs are facing dual pressure. Project sizes are growing and installation windows are tightening, while demands regarding quality, reliability and safety are rising. How are mounting system providers responding to these challenges? Here’s what they told us.

A joint webinar by K2 Systems and PV Europe sets out how installers can tackle the competing demands of speed, flexibility and plant protection when building large solar arrays on flat and green roofs. It is now available to watch free of charge.
