Vestas has secured a 70MW Bulgarian wind turbine supply order. The Strazhitsa project adds 11 EnVentus machines and a long-term service package, giving fresh momentum to onshore wind investment in Bulgaria.
-
RWE has installed two offshore substations for Nordseecluster A project. The milestone moves the German North Sea scheme deeper into delivery, with cable work under way and turbine installation due this summer.
-
Europe’s wind fleet is approaching a major asset-renewal cycle now. Operators are moving towards decisions on repowering, lifetime extension, and decommissioning across older sites.
-
Swissgrid has outlined how Switzerland could integrate 40 GW of solar. The paper moves the debate from deployment targets towards stability, flexibility, market design, and system coordination.
-
Aggreko has secured a long-term hybrid power agreement in Queensland. The Eva Copper project package combines thermal generation, solar, and battery storage in a large off-grid mining power system.
-
Ember has warned that Europe’s grid bottlenecks could block at least 120 GW of planned renewables, with both transmission and distribution constraints now tightening project headroom.
-
DOE is widening solar cybersecurity standards work for distributed energy. Its Securing Solar for the Grid programme spans certification, testing, supply-chain risk, and training as inverter-based resources take a larger role in U.S. grid operations.
-
Echelon has started Ireland’s first Green Energy Park in Wicklow. The DUB20 project combines offshore wind access, onsite solar, battery storage, and grid-supporting energy centres within a single large-load infrastructure development.
-
Low Carbon Hub has opened Ray Valley battery investment offer. The 3 MW/12 MWh project will add four-hour storage to the Oxfordshire solar park and aims to reduce curtailment and shift output into peak demand periods.
