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.

A new advisory from the International Renewable Energy Agency links recent market disruption to structural energy risks, arguing that faster deployment of renewables and storage can reduce exposure while supporting economic stability.

Professor Martin Green of the University of New South Wales is a leading figure in solar research, holding numerous patents and efficiency records dating back to 1974. Now Chief Scientific Officer at Euronergy, he is focused on developing glass-free, lightweight modules that are exceptionally thin and easy to install.

The parliament in Madrid has ratified a package of 80 measures backed by €5 billion that extends self-consumption rules, eases storage requirements and advances energy communities.

CEO Talk: Uniper brings decades of experience in the energy sector. But what role can such a strong partner play in the solar park and battery storage business? And how important is this expertise in integrating renewable energies into supply systems? Let’s find out.

Europe is generating more renewable energy than ever, yet a widening gap between production and consumption is pushing imbalance costs across the entire system. The solution to this challenge may lie right above us, says Chris Bernkopf, founder of Podero.

Figures from sun.store show a broad price correction in residential batteries, while commercial and industrial prices declined across both capacity ranges, with sharper drops in smaller systems.

Podcast: Elevated solar modules and solar fences are helping farmers generate clean solar power on their pastures and arable land. Stephan Schindele, head of the agri-PV division at BayWa r.e., explains how agricultural transformation and the energy transition are interconnected, offering clear benefits for both farmers and investors. Several countries across Europe are already leading the way with large-scale agri-PV projects.

Located in Przeworsk, the standalone battery project will be delivered under a full EPC scope, with grid connection, integration and commissioning ahead of planned operation in early 2027.

Interview with Anoushka Bakx

The closing date for abstract submissions for the 2026 event in Delhi has been extended to 21 April, with the option to present online also available.

PV on Tour: Euronergy’s new lightweight PV modules have cleared key fire safety tests for building approval. Frank Hochmuth of Euronergy and Malte Sulkiewicz of Osnatech explain what sets the panels apart.

Built on Whes hardware and proprietary software, the system is designed to scale across commercial and industrial settings, with additional applications in smaller utility environments.

When setting up solar systems, it's crucial to ensure the correct connectors are consistently used. Improper connections can lead to significant and easily avoidable risks.

The Falkirk battery project marks Rolls-Royce’s entry into the UK storage market, as the country scales storage capacity under its Clean Power 2030 plan.

Industrial self-consumption is advancing as a use case for floating solar, as demonstrated by a new installation in the Dutch province of Drenthe.

With module prices currently low, investing in solar is particularly attractive, although conditions may not remain this favourable for long. The battery storage market is also gaining momentum, especially for large-scale systems. We spoke with Dutch market analyst Gerard Scheper about the key players, the drivers behind the shift and what changes to expect.

European Energy has secured approval for a 28 MW battery with 112 MWh capacity, with Twig appointed to manage balancing responsibilities across both solar and storage.

As energy demands grow, flexibility and reliability become even more essential. Designed for commercial operations, agricultural businesses and larger residential buildings, the new Fronius Reserva Pro delivers both. This high-performance battery system offers impressive capacity, European cell and module manufacturing, and seamless integration into the Fronius ecosystem.

PV on Tour – Sunman Energy presents its ultra-lightweight, semi-flexible solar modules, designed for lightweight roofs and balcony PV systems, and achieving up to 520 watts. Managing Director Nancy Yell lays out the advantages of the technology.

Aimed at warehouses, data centres and logistics sites, the Hi-Mo X10 focuses on meeting fire safety requirements in rooftop PV installations.

A new study by Eurelectric and EY estimates that fleet electrification could unlock cumulative operating cost savings of up to €246 billion by 2030.

Biohaus Foundation: After just over a week on the road, solar equipment has arrived at a hospital in Kamianets-Podilskyi. Funding is now needed to equip at least a dozen more hospitals this year.

Solar Solutions will arrive in Vienna at the end of April, bringing its B2B trade fair to the Austrian capital, with the full programme now online and free tickets available.

Veselin Todorov, Chairman and Founder of Solar Academy Bulgaria, shares his perspective on the development of photovoltaics and energy storage in Bulgaria, the challenges facing the sector and the opportunities ahead.
