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 together. Find out more about the strategy behind it.

The installation in Lodi is projected to outperform a comparable TOPCon-based system by more than 633 MWh over 30 years.

Two hybrid sites at Stouby and Agersted bring European Energy's grid-connected storage in Denmark to more than 375 MWh across 96.75 MW.

Sungrow's PowerTitan 2.0 anchors a 70 MW / 160 MWh storage plant developed by Delta Capacity, delivered in just 15 months to bring flexibility to the volatile Nordic power market.

Zelestra has signed a ten-year tolling agreement with Axpo for a 207 MW storage project in northeastern Italy, its first BESS development in the country and one that would make it Italy's second-largest holder of authorised battery storage capacity.

New analysis from the government in Skopje sets out how North Macedonia could build a green hydrogen economy by 2050 and connect into a pan-European network with Serbia and Greece.

A new IIASA-led study finds that climate strategies which cut energy and resource demand tend to improve quality of life across a broader range of dimensions than supply-side alternatives, and that communicating these benefits can strengthen public support.

LONGi shows its new solar-plus-storage portfolio, SolarEdge adds 107 kWh for C&I, Clou and Midea bring 261 kWh of liquid-cooled storage and AlphaESS scales to 6.7 MWh.

RWE and PPC have finished building 930 MWp of solar capacity in Western Macedonia, part of a joint venture that also has 567 MWp under construction for 2027.

CEO Talk: The utility business in Europe is growing and increasingly challenging. Solar fields now come with large batteries, and suppliers must meet standards for grid compliance, safety and security. How is the business changing and what strategy will ultimately succeed? Leon Zhang, President of LONGi Europe, shares his view.

UNEF and Castilla-La Mancha's regional government are working to give municipalities a stronger role across the country's 837 energy communities, where local involvement already runs deep.

The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital has switched on a 600 kWh battery system paired with rooftop solar, delivered by ZLC Energy using six Solis PrimePower units. The setup is expected to offset around 75 percent of the hospital's electricity use.

The HV-MELA-BAT programme is advancing megawatt-scale charging with modular DC/DC converters, achieving high efficiency and enabling over 1 MW charging on a limited grid connection.

According to the world's largest battery maker, the system reaches up to 15,000 cycles at 25 degrees Celsius, and offers higher overcharge tolerance than comparable lithium-ion technology.

The Swedish Transport Administration has awarded Soltech subsidiary E-Mobility a two-year framework agreement for EV charging infrastructure at its properties across Sweden, with a potential value of SEK 28 million and an option to extend for a further two years.

Providers, growers and researchers will convene at Château Gassies on 13 and 14 October 2026 to share the latest findings on combining crop production with solar generation across European conditions.

The Storion-LC 836 delivers 835.9 kWh per cabinet and scales to 6.7 MWh when eight units are connected in parallel, with front-side cabling and standardised transport reducing installation complexity.

Solar park construction is picking up pace worldwide. The bottleneck isn't materials or components, but land, grid connection points and people. Our next newsletter for investors will be published on August 12, 2026.

CEO Talk: the most efficient kilowatt-hour of solar power is the one used on site. That calls for clever ways of integrating a wide range of components as flexibly as possible: heat pumps, EV charging, air conditioning and more. How can buildings make maximum use of the solar energy on their roofs? Find out in the video. (German with English subtitles)

As solar and battery storage projects scale up, the industry's exposure to fire, serial defects and unmanaged risk is outpacing its reliance on insurance alone, argues Harry Wolkenfelt of Solarif Group.

Gerard Scheper of European Solar argues that the positive sentiment seen after Intersolar Europe is no longer just sentiment, it is slowly turning into action.

Configuring solar arrays around the light spectrum plants actually use can substantially raise energy yields while leaving crop growth unaffected, Australian researchers report.

Having worked with Belgium's Innoptus Solar Team at the 2025 Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, LONGi adds the Netherlands' Delft Solar Team for the American Solar Challenge, running from 25 July to 1 August.

Engineers, financiers and operators will convene on 23 and 24 February 2027 for the Solar Quality Summit Europe, with a programme centred on real-world performance data and long-term asset value.

Three projects presented at the Intersolar Forum show how PV, battery storage, charging infrastructure, energy management software and market integration are turning commercial truck and bus depots into flexible, revenue-generating assets.
