The PPC Group has completed construction of a 2.13GW solar PV portfolio in Greece, which it described as the "largest" cluster in Europe.

R.Power's Michał Swół speaks to PV Tech Premium about Germany's position as a leader in Europe's renewable energy auction space.

The German Federal Network Agency has awarded 155MW of rooftop solar of 283MW of available capacity in its latest tender.

Dutch research institute TNO has developed what it said is the world’s first solar roof tile based on perovskite technology.

Danish independent power producer (IPP) European Energy has divested a 470MW hybrid project in Lithuania to Israel-based IPP Energix.

The world added 510GW of new solar PV capacity in 2025, the most of any electricity generation source, according to IRENA.

In its analysis, Ember examined grid capacity across 20 EU countries and found the major gap was at the transmission level, with a possible shortfall of 104 GW that would affect utility-scale solar projects.

Solar power has saved the EU over €110 million (US$127.5 million) a day since the outbreak of war in the Middle East, according to SolarPower Europe.

Four giant solar ‘wings’ will provide power for the first crewed mission to the Moon in over 50 years, due to launch later today.

The conflict in the Middle East could drive European solar PPA prices up by as much as 35%, according to Pexapark.
