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

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.

PV Tech Premium explores the impacts that the EU's revised cybersecurity review will have on the continent's solar industry.

The European Council has formally adopted plans for a phased ban of Russian gas imports starting from March.

EU countries generated more power from solar PV and wind projects than from fossil fuels for the first time ever in 2025.

Analysis: Expected changes to the EU’s cybersecurity laws that could have significant implications for the continent’s solar industry have been delayed, reportedly due to disagreement between officials and member states over how far they should go.

The EU’s Economic Security Doctrine has identified solar inverters as a high-risk dependency, a move which the European Solar Manufacturing Council (ESMC) has lauded.

PV Tech Premium spoke with academic and industry experts about the rising tide of cybersecurity concerns in Europe's solar energy sector.

For the first time ever, solar PV was the biggest source of electricity in June 2025, according to data from energy think tank Ember.

The ESMC has called for a restriction of remote access to PV inverters in Europe from ‘high-risk’ manufacturers, mainly those in China.
