The renewable energy provider has confirmed construction of four new solar parks in northern and central England, marking its first major venture into solar and expanding its energy mix.
Photovoltaic systems represent an essential component of the energy transition. As investments, operators naturally expect regular returns. This makes technical defects and damage all the more vexing – in particular when they are the result of avoidable mistakes.
With module prices currently low, investing in solar is especially appealing – though conditions may not stay this favourable for long. The battery storage market is also heating up, particularly for large-scale systems. We spoke with Dutch market analyst Gerard Scheper about the key players, what’s driving the shift and what change to expect.
