China has commissioned the world's largest Al-powered battery storage cluster, a significant step forward in grid-scale energy storage and intelligent power system management. The cluster contains a record-breaking 4 GWh single-site energy storage power station, the Envision Jingyi Chagan Hada Energy Storage Power Station, as part of a larger 12.8 GWh energy storage network spanning Inner Mongolia. The flagship plant, which was successfully connected to the grid in late Decem

Clean Slate Solar has achieved a significant milestone by successfully completing and commissioning two new community solar facilities in Landover, Maryland, bringing 1.7 MW of clean, locally generated electricity online and expanding access to affordable solar power for residents throughout the region. The two projects, 1,297 KW at 3101 Pennsy and 435 KW at 3333 Pennsy, are located on existing commercial rooftops and will service hundreds of community solar subscribers throu

Avangrid, Inc., a leading US energy firm and member of the Iberdrola Group, has announced the commercial operation of two new solar photovoltaic projects in Oregon, Daybreak Solar and Bakeoven Solar, which will contribute 269 MW of clean energy capacity to the grid. These facilities, the first commercial-scale solar installations in Wasco County, represent a significant step toward increasing renewable energy infrastructure in the Pacific Northwest and meeting local energy de

China installed a large 315 gigawatts (315,000 MW) of new solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity, shattering global records and cementing its position as the world's largest solar energy market. This unprecedented deployment increased China's cumulative installed solar capacity to over 1.2 terawatts (TW), which is equivalent to more than 1,200,000 MW of clean electricity generation installed across the country. According to official figures, the country's 315 GW of solar PV additio

Bulgaria reached a critical milestone in its renewable energy transition in 2025, building 1,416 MW (1.4 GW) of new solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity — its third consecutive year above 1 GW - bringing the country's total cumulative solar capacity close to 6 GW by the end of the year. This quick rise highlights the country's growing significance in Eastern Europe's clean energy transformation, as well as strong market momentum for utility-scale and hybrid solar projects. Accord

Spanish energy giant Repsol and German electrolyzer specialist Sunfire have reported work on joint green hydrogen projects totaling 200 MW of electrolysis capacity throughout Spain, marking a significant step toward decarbonizing industrial energy systems. The project serves Europe's larger energy transition objectives while strengthening the nation's position as a leader in the generation of renewable hydrogen. According to the agreement, Sunfire will provide 200 MW of press

The 48-MW Great Bend Solar project, located along the picturesque banks of the Ohio River in Meigs County, Ohio, officially commenced commercial operation earlier this month, marking a key milestone in Midwest renewable energy development. Doral Renewables, a large utility-scale solar and battery storage developer in the United States, developed and owns the project, which began commercial operations on January 6, 2026, under the conditions of a long-term Power Purchase Agree

Wood Mackenzie expects the global solar PV market to remain fundamentally strong in 2026 , even after a difficult 2025 marked by policy and regulatory turbulence in several key regions. In a new report, the analyst highlights three themes it believes will shape 2026 and influence longer-term market direction: load growth as a demand engine for solar , the emergence of balcony/plug-in PV in the US , and Masdar/EWEC’s utility-scale solar-plus-storage “baseload” model  in Abu Dh
