Indonesian energy policy think tank, the Institute for Essential Services Reform (IESR), has penned a new report stating that the country stands to gain from the influx of new solar manufacturing capabilities yet is still underutilising its generation potential.

Solar PV developer Lightsource bp has commenced construction on a 450MW solar PV plant in New South Wales, Australia, and a 214MW solar-plus-storage project in Queensland.

With a combined capacity of 394MW, the Tocopilla (227MW) and Tamarico (167MW) are located in the northern regions of Antofagasta and Atacama

A 300MW solar-plus-storage twin project is set to be developed in North Queensland, Australia, after success in the recent Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) tender.

Consisting of three utility-scale solar projects in the central region of Lazio, the projects are expected to be operational by 2026.

The money raised will support the development of the company’s C&I portfolio of more than 200 projects across the US.

The successful projects of the first CIS tender round in Australia have been revealed, with 2.75GW of solar PV being awarded.

EDP Renewables has commissioned a 103MW solar portfolio in Italy, pushing its European solar portfolio over 700MW of operating capacity.

Recurrent Energy has signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) with an unnamed US tech company for a solar project in northern Spain.

Aside from the 100MW solar PV capacity, the Kitt Solar project is also paired with 400MWh of energy storage capacity.
