Pexapark analyst David Battista sees the April 2026 data as evidence that midday oversupply has shifted from occasional event to recurring structural condition, with France, Germany and Spain bearing the brunt.
The 1,200 MWh project in Mazovia anchors R.Power's 6.3 GWh Polish storage pipeline, with Axpo providing optimisation and a revenue floor under a profit-sharing deal running until 2038.
The manager at the solar and storage technology company argues that the era of stand-alone PV systems is over, as storage and energy management now drive installations. And he has solid reasons to be optimistic for 2026.
As renewable energy grows, especially in solar, leaders need the vision to see the whole board, explains Ali Inal, Managing Director at Senkron Digital.
April price figures from sun.store point to a flat residential market across Europe, with high-voltage performance systems the only outlier. Commercial-scale pricing stayed level, even as supply grew noticeably tighter.
A multi-country study presented at SolarFlex Croatia, covering 13 markets and 8,000 generators, concludes that storage in the country can already turn a profit purely from network services, well ahead of any trading revenues.
The floating neighbourhood of Schoonschip shows how households can pool solar, batteries and heat pumps, transforming a community into a flexible, market-ready virtual power plant in Amsterdam’s waterways.
As farms confront grid constraints and fluctuating energy use, manufacturers are engineering smart inverters that provide reliability, flexibility, and secure power for even the most demanding agricultural applications.
Public auctions and corporate PPAs delivered 92 GW of solar capacity in the EU between the 2022 energy crisis and 2025. Now, the Brussels-based trade body is urging stronger use of these tools to reduce reliance on fossil fuel imports.
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.
From 23 to 25 June, sessions examine how solar combines with storage and other technologies, focusing on integration strategies, grid stability, sector coupling and emerging applications across a renewable electricity system.
Sensors, extinguishing systems and pressure relief packaged into a single technical container can simplify planning, speed permitting and give emergency services a clear point of intervention.
The Island Decarbonisation Fund is due to launch in the coming months, with European Investment Bank approval of the investment plan by June clearing the way for first project financing.
Commissioned by Canadian renewables producer Boralex, the study examines how changing climate conditions could affect long term energy yield across 76 solar and wind sites.
First commercial installations of the JAPlanet system are running at sites from Sicilian hotels to Dutch logistics hubs, paired with PV and built around a 261 kWh LFP block scalable to 5.2 MWh.
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.
The project in Zealand, developed by GreenGo Energy, combines 79 MW of solar capacity with 55 MW of storage, marking Alight’s first co-located PV and battery deployment in the country
Located in Lapinlahti, the 95 MW system will support grid operations and help manage variability as renewable generation grows across Finland.
H&M’s solar park investments, Ecokraft’s prefabricated industrial rooftop systems, and Region Kalmar’s car park canopy at Oskarshamn Hospital have won Svensk Solenergi’s 2026 award.
Solar parks may be low-maintenance assets, but optimisation still matters. Reducing component variety and extending lifetimes remain key levers. Find out more in our investor newsletter on 13 May 2026 – sign up now.
A network of megawatt chargers is taking shape along Europe's key freight corridors, allowing heavy-duty e-trucks to recharge in record time and clearing a major hurdle for zero-emission logistics.
Installed at Søstrene Grene’s distribution centre, the rooftop system supports a fully electric facility, with part of the output used on site and the remainder exported to the grid.
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.
Industry is awaiting official publication of European Commission guidelines restricting funding for inverters from high-risk countries, with rules already finalised and taking effect immediately on a phased basis.
As lease agreements become commonplace in PV, which sites are viable and what should farmers assess before committing land?
