As manufacturers bypass distributors and sell C&I storage directly to installers and EPCs, buyers must establish who handles integration, commissioning and repairs. Removing a distributor does not remove the work, says market expert Gerard Scheper.

Andy Burnham’s new public grid body will co-invest with private operators and bid for transmission work. What is it, how does it work and why does the politics matter?

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.

Households can claim up to €9,000 towards an electric car, and €2,500 for an electric motorcycle or moped, from a €20 million fund. Applications open on 21 October 2026.

CEO Talk: Growing demand for large-scale storage systems is working in favour of European suppliers. Safety and security are becoming increasingly important. What role does service play, from commissioning through the entire lifespan of the storage system? Fenecon's CEO shares his view.

The IPV Conference will gather architects, planners and researchers at the Chamber of Commerce on 3 and 4 December to examine how photovoltaics can be integrated into buildings, infrastructure and vehicles.

After passing 9 GW of installed PV in 2025, the EU's newest solar frontrunner is now targeting more than 12 GW by 2030. The Intersolar Summit Romania will bring 350 delegates to Bucharest on 13–14 October to map out the opportunities.

Local clean energy projects backed by Great British Energy, the UK’s publicly owned clean energy company, will now have to source solar components from Solar Stewardship Initiative members or suppliers with equivalent ESG assurance.

CEO Talk: instalment purchasing made easy. With solid partners behind them, installers can offer customers loans for their solar setup alongside the build itself. What does this mean for installers? More work or more orders? Watch to find out.

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.

SolarEdge's European chief explains why hyperscaler power demand and cybersecurity concerns around Chinese inverters are reshaping the company's strategy on the continent, alongside AI, US manufacturing and the new Nexis platform.

As the EU tightens cyber rules for networked inverters, manufacturers must navigate both a new compliance burden and a chance to make "made in Europe" count for more.

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.

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.
