NSW proposes electricity reforms for a 28GW data-centre connection pipeline. The measures would change connection planning, network cost recovery, and demand obligations as proposed loads exceed existing system assumptions.
Energa has extended bidding for its Świercze 110/15kV substation works. The package covers transformers, switchgear, telecontrol, civil infrastructure, and renewable-integration equipment.
Hidrocantábrico is tendering a 132kV underground connection for Asipo substation. The Llanera project will connect the planned high-voltage site through buried cable infrastructure.
Romania’s grid operator is reinforcing two 110kV lines for renewables. The works target network capacity upstream of generation connection points in Dobrogea, where additional renewable output is increasing demands on established infrastructure.
Litgrid has opened procurement for Lithuania’s largest electricity substation project. Gižai will introduce 220kV operation to Lithuania’s transmission system and connect the planned 700MW Harmony Link with Poland.
PSE is expanding two northern substations on Poland’s 400kV network. The works combine transmission reinforcement, line integration, and reactive-power infrastructure as northern generation patterns change.
TransnetBW is procuring new 380kV switchgear for three battery connections. The Pulverdingen package combines extra-high-voltage customer connections with wider reinforcement of one of Baden-Württemberg’s major transmission nodes.
GSU has inaugurated Sakaï, a 50MW solar-plus-storage power infrastructure project. The completed development combines more than 80,000 photovoltaic panels with 15MWh of battery storage and materially increases national generation capacity.
Arevon has started operations at its four-hour Nighthawk battery project. The 300MW/1,200MWh California facility is now the company’s largest standalone storage asset and operates under a long-term PG&E agreement.
BW ESS has acquired Yanco’s ready-to-build four-hour battery storage project. Construction of the 250MW/1,000MWh system is due to begin later in 2026 ahead of commercial operation in 2028.
