Grids

Solar PV is the world’s cheapest technology to generate electricity, according to a study from the University of Surrey, in the UK.

Australia's NEM achieved a new minimum operational demand record of 9,666MW, marking a 4% decrease from the previous record.

An expert panel has identified a series of grid failures that led to April's unprecedented power outage in Spain and Portugal, ruling out renewables as the leading cause.

Australia's solar sector delivered a strong September performance in the National Electricity Market (NEM) as the country entered spring, with combined solar PV generation reaching 3,933GWh - a 17.83% increase from August's 3,338GWh.

Adding 32GW of new solar to Thailand’s power generation deployment targets could cut power generation costs by as much as US$1.8 billion.

Australia's CER has disclosed that 1.5GW of new renewable energy capacity in the NEM received authorisation in the second quarter of 2025.

Global grids have failed to keep pace with renewable energy technologies and have become the “bottleneck of the energy transition”, according to a new policy report from the Global Solar Council (GSC).

The development of India’s power transmission network is lagging behind the country’s rapid growth in renewable energy, leading to project delays and cost increases

European geopolitical tensions have exploited weaknesses in grid systems, leaving 55% of Europe’s grids vulnerable, according to Ember.

Australia’s NEM set a new instantaneous renewables share record of 78.6% on 22 September, surpassing the previous day's record of 77.9%.
