Mining giant Fortescue has begun construction of its 440MW Solomon Airport solar PV power plant in Western Australia's Pilbara region.

Australia's utility-scale solar PV and wind assets delivered a combined 5TWh of generation in February 2026.

The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) has announced that renewable energy sources supplied more than half of the quarterly energy demand in the National Electricity Market (NEM) for the first time.

DNV has forecast that the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region will add 860GW of new solar PV by 2040.

The Spanish government has approved a royal decree aimed at strengthening the power grid's resilience, robustness and stability in response to the nationwide blackout in April.

Queensland's rooftop solar systems have exceeded 5GW of output for the first time, marking a milestone in Australia's solar expansion.

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.

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).

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%.
