Axis Energy has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Government of Odisha to develop up to 5GW of renewable energy capacity in the state. 

As Australia’s renewable sector matures, the coupling of solar and storage is emerging as the dominant paradigm for large-scale projects.

A 77.5MW PV plant in Estonia is to be coupled with a 55MW/250MWh battery energy storage system to create what is claimed will be the country’s largest hybrid project.

EIB is investing US$40 million to construct and operate three PV plants in southwestern Romania, with a combined capacity of 190MW.

The French government has published its latest energy roadmap for the coming years, setting a reduced target of 48GW for solar PV by 2030.

Germany’s federal network agency (Bundesnetzagentur) has announced the results of its latest ground-mount solar auction, which closed with bids for more than twice as much capacity as was tendered.
