Incumbent generators are calling for up to $40 billion in 'make whole' payments to manage the energy transition, as supply chain risks and rising grid costs complicate Australia's path to net zero.
The energy transition will require between $12 billion and $40 billion in “make whole” payments along with incentives for new gas supply, according to a vision for Australia’s energy markets from peak body the Australian Energy Council.
Spanish engineering firm Elecnor reported a €20 million financial loss linked to defective solar modules at an Australian project. The contractor attributed the deficit to widespread panel failures and the subsequent loss of generation revenue while awaiting replacement components.
Median solar module pricing in the United States reached $0.28 per watt as the market adjusted to intensified trade enforcement and new Foreign Entity of Concern compliance requirements, according to the Q1 2026 Quarterly Pricing & Domestic Content R…
National Electricity Market carbon emissions have decreased significantly over the past ten years, with the most substantial reductions occurring in states that prioritised rapid renewable energy deployment. Data indicates that the pace of decarbonisation across the Australian grid correlates directly with the speed of wind and solar integration over the last five-year period.
Australian company specialising in thermal storage raises $40 million in loans and equity to help accelerate replacement of fossil fuel boilers.
Backed by solar and a battery, the two fastest EV charging stations in W.A. have opened on a major highway.
A UNSW-led team found that annealing conditions significantly affect stress, strain, and microstructure in copper-plated heterojunction solar cell contacts, with fast annealing increasing microstrain in both copper and indium tin oxide.
Neoen has announced two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in France and Japan, expanding its footprint in both markets with installations totaling 348 MW and 896 MWh.
Industrial firms are increasingly adopting battery storage to mitigate exposure to volatile electricity prices, which remain heavily influenced by natural gas markets despite electrification efforts. On-site storage allows businesses to manage grid-driven financial risks and decouple operational costs from gas-linked price fluctuations.
In an interview with pv magazine , Carolina Novac, Secretary of State at Moldova’s Ministry of Energy explains how the country raised its solar capacity to 1 GW while advancing wind, storage, and regulatory reforms to strengthen energy security and r…
Researchers in Morocco have identified critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities in smart grids, including false data injection and IoT-based attacks. Their analysis advocates for AI-powered real-time anomaly detection and multi-layered defense frameworks to protect power infrastructure from evolving digital threats.
The Solar Stewardship Initiative (SSI) and the Initiative for Responsible Mining Assurance (IRMA) have signed an agreement to strengthen traceability and sustainability standards across solar supply chains.
FlexGen Power Systems has purchased Clean Energy Services to integrate utility-scale solar and battery energy storage system maintenance into its portfolio. This acquisition aims to broaden the company's technical capabilities and project execution capacity within the renewable energy sector.
Boralex and SNGRDC have closed C$202m ($144m) in financing for the Oxford Battery Energy Storage Project in the Township of South-West Oxford.
Geronimo Power has started commercial operations at its 117MW Dodson Creek Solar Project located in Highland County, Ohio, US.
New Time has outlined a four-year roadmap to industrialize perovskite solar cells in Italy, with pilot production planned within three years and full-scale output to follow.
Spanish researchers found that semi-transparent silicon PV greenhouses boosted tomato fruit weight by 25% while generating 726.8 kWh over two seasons, outperforming cadmium telluride PV and shaded controls.
Hydrogels offer promise in batteries as an electrolyte, including lithium and sodium chemistries, due to being inherently more safe.
