A research team led by Washington State University has developed a cloud-based system for trading and sharing energy from solar panels and batteries within a neighbourhood. The concept displayed potential energy cost savings of around 12% over a five-day test period.

Kyrgyzstan’s National Investment Agency and Hungary’s Electron Holding have agreed to develop up to 300 MW of solar capacity in Kyrgyzstan with planned investments of $300 million.

In its latest monthly column for pv magazine, the International Solar Energy Society (ISES) promotes the biennial Solar World Congress (SWC), which took place in Fortaleza-Brazil in November 2025, a few days before the COP30. The SWC scientific program has traditionally been dominated by presentations on solar radiation and solar thermal applications, but this year, photovoltaics was the focus of most of the presentations. This reflects the massive adoption of PV all over the globe, which, at the current pace, will dominate the electricity mix by the end of the decade.

Technique Solaire says it is acquiring 100% of Iberdrola Renouvelables S.A.S., expanding its French onshore wind and solar portfolio with 118 MW of operating assets and a 639 MW development pipeline.

Hydro Tasmania is seeking to increase its renewable energy generation to meet growing energy demand and support the Australian state’s industrial expansion.

Commissioned on 30 January 2025, Enel Group’s Arinos Solar Park in Minas Gerais combines clean energy generation, advanced technologies, skilled jobs, and measurable benefits for local communities.

Only months after inaugurating the world’s largest sand battery – a 1 MW/100 MWh thermal storage system – Polar Night has committed to building a project twice its size.

Global grid-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) deployments have hit 156 GWh year-to-date. Over 153 GWh are still slated for commissioning in 2025, though delays and cancellations are likely to trim that total by year-end.

A research team in Spain has built what it claims to be the world’s most efficient perovskite solar cell using MXenes or any other type of 2D-materials. The device relies on a Mxene interlayer that suppresses non-radiative recombination and improved charge extraction at the interface between the perovskite absorber and the electron transport layer.

NLC India Ltd. says it has issued a tender for contractors to secure and develop 1,850 acres across multiple states for a solar power project connected to India’s inter-state transmission system (ISTS) on behalf of NLC India Renewables Ltd (NIRL).
