Schneider Electric research shows UK autonomy adoption remains comparatively low. Only 8% of surveyed UK organisations describe themselves as fully autonomous, despite 76% ranking autonomous operations as a strategic priority.
-
Power Electronics has reached 170GW of installed AC power worldwide. The milestone reflects growth across solar, storage, data-centre, and power-conversion applications as grid-forming capability and resilient inverter supply become more central to energy infrastructure.
-
Solis is broadening its storage offer across European applications segments. Its Intersolar portfolio spans residential, commercial, industrial, and utility-scale systems.
-
Valeo and Nissan are pushing V2G charging toward commercial rollout. The agreement starts in the UK before wider European deployment.
-
Smart appliance rules are entering a delivery-sensitive implementation phase now. BEAMA wants a voluntary transition period for SSES product design, certification, testing, and manufacturing cycles.
-
Factory energy storage planning is moving from sizing into simulation. Fraunhofer IWU’s ESiP Analyzer models peak-load reduction, renewable self-consumption, storage investment, and operating strategy.
-
Europe’s storage market is widening beyond cells and cabinets alone. FlexGen and Eos are entering through controls, lifecycle services, zinc-based storage, and regional delivery partnerships.
-
UKPN Services will design Sizewell C construction power control systems. The appointment covers SCADA design for the Construction Electrical Supplies network, supporting monitored and remotely controllable power distribution across the nuclear build site.
-
APsystems is widening its storage portfolio for European installer markets. The expanded APstorage range spans balcony solar, residential hybrid and AC-coupled systems, and C&I cabinets.
-
Europe’s inverter manufacturing base has passed a strategic capacity threshold. The milestone strengthens regional power-electronics supply as cybersecurity, grid compliance, and industrial resilience become sharper procurement concerns.
