An 800 MWh reserve that can respond in a fraction of a second is now under construction for PGE at Gryfino, in the north-west corner of Poland, with operation due in 2028.

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.

With land for solar in short supply, developers are moving onto reservoirs and quarry lakes. Cooler modules lift yields, but higher costs and patchy regulation are still slowing the sector down.

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.

Commercial battery storage combined with trading software from Tesvolt Energy puts flexibility trading within reach of small and medium-sized companies.

Two new analyses examine Europe's evolving PV landscape: SolarEdge maps five trends reshaping distributed solar, and a SolarPower Europe webinar explores how quality decisions define 30 years of asset value.

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.

Ukrainians have lived with Russia’s full-scale invasion for years. Since September, attacks have grown more frequent and more brutal. With winter approaching, help is needed more than ever.

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.

As land for solar runs short, developers are turning to reservoirs and quarry lakes. Higher yields help the case, but costs and regulation still hold projects back, Aditi Jaiswal of Consegic Business Intelligence elaborates.

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.

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.

PV Guided Tours: The three-phase Powerwall 3P battery delivers 15.4 kW of AC output and adapts flexibly to demand. Behind it all sits the Tesla Home energy manager, which links the battery, PV system, EV and heat pump – all optimised by AI software.

C&I storage with built-in backup from Hoymiles, AI-supported home backup from Sigenstor Neo, 261 kWh cabinets from Clou and Midea and more capacity from Solarwatt’s Battery Vision 2.0, all new this week.

Solar park construction is picking up pace worldwide, but the bottleneck is not materials or components. It is land, grid connection points and the people to do the work. Sign up for our investor newsletter to receive this digital edition directly.

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)

Lithium-ion storage carries real risks of thermal runaway, fire and explosion. Certified technical containers can shield installations from external hazards and ease the route through building approval processes.

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.

Households are stacking solar, batteries, EVs and heat pumps from different brands, only to find the devices can’t communicate with each other. Jochen Schwill of SpotmyEnergy argues that compatibility should become a defining measure of quality.

Capacity, cycle life and price dominate most battery comparisons. Randy Levine of SolarClarity.co argues that the household’s electricity tariff decides whether storage is worth the money.
