Eurelectric’s Power Barometer 2026 finds that clean electricity cushioned Europe from a fresh fossil-fuel shock this year, yet storage build-out is still falling well short of the pace needed to keep the system stable through 2030.

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.

Global battery storage capacity is set to nearly triple by 2030, and operators are already drowning in alarms. Valentin Lorscheid of ACCURE explains how to get ahead of problems, and why independent data matters.

Lightweight warehouse roofs, vehicles, noise barriers, greenhouses and indoor IoT devices could all become markets for perovskite solar. A new IDTechEx report looks at the decade ahead.

CEO Talk: What does the future of energy storage in Europe look like? Safer, smarter and more connected, from commercial rooftops to utility-scale projects. AlphaESS shows how a single open system can link all of these applications. Find out more about the company’s strategy.

Rooftop systems and batteries will be taxed at 5 percent again from April, while cuts to the Warm Homes Plan mean less help for households investing in clean energy.

In just its second year, the Croatian event drew more than 5,000 visitors and growing numbers of suppliers looking for partners across south-eastern Europe.

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.

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.

Harald Scherleitner discusses Fronius's return to growth, the strategic case for building in Europe and why cybersecurity has become a defining purchasing criterion for inverters.

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.

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.
