Energy costs shape competitiveness in both global and local markets. As fossil and nuclear prices continue to rise, solar and wind are no longer marginal technologies but increasingly represent the smart money in power generation.

PV Guided Tours: With 690 W and an efficiency of 25.6%, AIKO Energy once again sets new benchmarks with its fourth-generation modules. In the video, we explore the technical details and outline future developments.

Solar and battery storage projects are only as insurable and bankable as the decisions taken long before financial close, argues the CEO and founder of Solarif Group. Effective De-Risking starts at the drawing board, not at the signing table.

Countries are responding to the second energy crisis in five years by expanding electricity investment and turning to new supply routes and domestic resources, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reports.

The developer has agreed to buy 74 MW of Trinasolar's latest Vertex N G3 modules for five solar projects in southern Germany, the latest chapter in a five-year supply relationship.

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.

CEO Talk: The project business revolves around modules, inverters and mounting systems. Small components such as cable ties, connectors or protective conduits for wiring are often neglected. Sooner or later, such oversights will come back to haunt you. We find out why.

A new storage brand brings three-tier modular capacity from five to 40 kilowatt-hours, LFP cells rated for over 6,000 cycles and a decade of expected service life.

Investing in solar parks, expansive rooftop systems and cutting-edge battery storage requires patience and a genuinely long-term outlook. Such projects are generally designed to run for twenty years or more, making it crucial to safeguard them against a broad spectrum of risks over their lifespan – an important issue that is still too often neglected.

ZEZ and partners bring the "Energy Communities in Practice" conference to Bol on 24 and 25 September, focused on setting up, financing and running shared solar installations.

PV Guided Tours: Demands on mounting are rising, and manufacturers are responding with designs that meet rooftop regulations while still allowing rapid installation. Ludwig Maximilian Schletter of SL Rack demonstrates how it works.

Efstathios Sideris of Capalo AI explains how machine learning, local expertise and cross-border cooperation can reduce curtailment and unlock new revenue streams for renewable assets across the Balkans.

Next2Sun argues that combining south-facing and vertical installations can expand connected capacity by around 60 percent while cutting infrastructure costs and improving market returns.

The Saracen Sands Hotel & Conference Centre near Palermo has installed a solar carport and battery system it expects will slash €500,000 a year off its energy costs.

UNEF's annual report shows the solar sector employed over 134,000 people and contributed €9.84 billion to Spanish GDP last year. But today, falling captured prices and near-900 zero-price hours are straining plant profitability.

PV Guided Tours: Lightweight modules that offer a solution for load-restricted roofs. Or special technologies that enable durable and flexible solar modules without glass. Is this magic? Let’s find out.

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, 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.
