Eurowind Energy secured Romanian grid approvals covering 2.3GW renewables capacity. Seven wind, solar, and storage projects are planned for connection after 2030, subject to reinforcement and construction permits.
Germany has opened October’s second-segment solar tender at 296MW capacity. Current rules retain a €0.10/kWh ceiling and 1,001kW minimum bid while Solarpaket I changes await European Commission state-aid approval.
Trianel has opened Borkum I to Germany’s balancing market services. Around 70MW is prequalified for negative secondary reserve, giving the 200MW offshore asset a controllable grid-services role alongside electricity generation.
Slovenia generated less electricity during July than one year earlier. Hydro and thermal output fell sharply, while solar and wind generation increased and electricity imports exceeded domestic net production.
Blykalla has proposed a second Swedish advanced nuclear reactor park. The Tierp development could provide 440MW from eight 55MWe lead-cooled SEALER units during the 2030s.
Kernel has secured €100 million for Ukrainian wind generation capacity. The 94.5MW project combines 21 Vestas turbines with battery storage and will supply company operations alongside the Ukrainian grid.
The Netherlands has awarded FEED contracts for two nuclear plants. EDF and Westinghouse will test reactor designs against Dutch requirements before later procurement.
Bulgaria plans a Danube levee beside the Kozloduy plant site. The 250m-to-300m structure follows an unprecedented low-water-related output reduction at Unit 5 and is intended to strengthen cooling-water resilience.
Next2Sun has launched a €5m share offering for expansion projects. The German vertical-bifacial PV specialist expects around 50MW of project volume in 2026 and more than 70MW during 2027.
Alight has commissioned a new solar park near Enköping, Sweden. The 14.3MWp project contains 22,300 panels and is expected to generate around 16GWh annually, with part of its output contracted to AkzoNobel.
