Fronius says it can scale inverter output to 17 GW annually within a year, arguing existing European manufacturing capacity is ready to absorb any shortfall as the EU restricts Chinese imports on security grounds.

The Nordic tie-up gives Emaldo's residential, commercial and industrial customers in Sweden full access to Flower's flexibility and ancillary services markets, strengthening returns from battery assets amid rising market volatility.

As heatwaves and storms intensify across Europe, combining green roofs with rooftop solar is gaining traction as a practical way to cool buildings, manage rainfall and generate clean power where it is needed most.

BRIZO's flexible tensioning system is designed for coastal and near-shore sites, extending floating PV beyond the calm-water lakes most systems rely on today.

Once viewed as a brake on production, flexible electricity use is reshaping European industry's relationship with the grid. Michael Villa of smartEn sets out the opportunities, hurdles and the role of AI.

Premium module segments hit new highs in June as back contact and full black extended their runs, while buyer sentiment stayed firmly expansionary despite a slight easing in the PV PMI to 67, according to data from sun.store.

CEO Talk: ENTEGRO develops, plans and implements PV projects for companies and investors. Driven by the ambition to always be one idea better, the company consistently pushes innovation, efficiency and project quality. What this means in practice, and how it translates into real economic advantages, is revealed in a behind-the-scenes look.

The M-ELV Battbank, an AC-coupled low-voltage system for commercial and industrial applications, is designed to integrate independently of existing inverters.

PV Guided Tours: HYXI is showing off its newly unveiled Muse AI-Native Energy OS, which transforms energy use from passive backup into active, learning intelligence. Highlights include the Aura all-in-one storage, the AC-coupled Halo micro-storage system and the liquid-cooled Atlas C&I unit.

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.

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.

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.

Energy crises and rising fossil and nuclear prices are making solar and battery storage more attractive than ever, driving demand across industrial rooftops, open land and car parks – find out more in the latest guide.

Around 81 percent of residents in municipalities surveyed can apply for property tax rebates, according to a new report from Fundación Renovables and UNEF.

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.

The renewable energy association OIEH estimates the country will need around 2.4 GW of new solar capacity over the next four years just to cover current summer import requirements, as hydropower's seasonal decline deepens.

The deal, announced at Intersolar Europe, brings more than 20 GW of deployed projects and a presence across 58 countries, with the combined business expected to generate around €300 million in annual revenue.

As a rule, one to three percent of investment is allocated to operation and maintenance over 20 years, making solar parks low-maintenance assets with significantly lower costs than fossil or nuclear plants.

The sale follows a £250 million debt refinancing and £40 million equity raise, and is part of InstaVolt‘s strategy shift toward the UK and Ireland since the business entered Iberia in 2023.

Two new Agri-PV installations in Morcone and Acquafredda mark RWE's entry into the Italian market, with elevated tracker systems designed to shade crops while adding 19 MW of solar capacity to the grid.

After a punishing downturn, Europe's solar market is finding its footing. European Solar’s Gerard Scheper argues the deeper change lies in the industrial and political reset now taking shape around it.

SMA shows off its integrated energy manager and hybrid inverter, Tesvolt unveils the 500 kWh Powercore G2, Sax Power launches the Home Manager Pro and Plug-In, and Lorenz presents ground mounting with no ground intrusion.

The era of petrol and diesel dominance is drawing to a close. Mobility is transitioning to electric, with millions of private electric cars, company fleets, and commercial vehicles creating new demands on the energy supply. Filling stations, parking garages, and parking lots now represent opportunities to provide EVs with solar power.

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.
