Portfolio One brings LONGi‘s modules and in-house 5S storage under a single architecture, tailored to utility-scale, commercial and off-grid use, with the cloud-based Oneos platform handling control and virtual power plant functions.

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.

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.

PV Guided Tours: The new Luterra S2 is an all-in-one residential storage unit, installed in minutes, with AI-driven control. Huawei has also upgraded its commercial storage to deliver more kilowatt-hours. Watch the video for the full picture.

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.

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.

After a punishing downturn, Europe's solar market is finding its footing. European Solar’s Gerard Scheper argues the deeper change lies in the industrial and political reset now taking shape around it.

Corporate energy buyers are increasingly choosing hybrid PPAs for their settlement value rather than their price, even as LevelTen Energy's Q2 index shows solar prices recovering on gas-driven wholesale gains.

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.

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.

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

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: Mounting systems for rooftops need to be quick to install and straightforward to handle – this is the challenge facing manufacturers. Versatile substructures and a minimal set of tools make it possible to fit modules onto virtually any roof at speed. Sounds too good to be true? Then 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.
