A solar eclipse on August 12 will briefly pull thousands of megawatt-hours of generation off the grid and push balancing reserves hard. For system operators running high shares of renewables, the natural event doubles as a real-world drill in how fast reserve capacity can respond. The shadow travels from Siberia across the Arctic toward Spain […]

Data centers in Ireland of 10 MW and above now have to cover 80% of their own demand from newly built renewable capacity. Under a scheme called the Large Energy User Action Plan, or LEAP, facilities of 10 MW and above must meet the bulk of their load through new local clean generation and storage. […]

A fire that burned through 35,000 acres, ignited by a private overhead power line, has led Greek prosecutors to arrest three people and order a sweeping inspection of every comparable site in the country. The disaster in western Attica was traced to the private grid of a wind station whose construction was completed only in […]

Recent reforms to the interconnection queue at PJM, the largest grid operator in the United States, have resulted in a pronounced shift toward fossil fuel generation. While the procedural overhaul was designed to eliminate speculative applications through stricter financial requirements, natural gas proposals now make up roughly 50 percent of the 201.5 GW qualified for […]

A growing disconnect has emerged between the institutional planning for grid flexibility and the physical commissioning of new assets. An analysis of 25 major power systems, including Australia, Brazil, and China, reveals that while market mechanisms are being established, the conversion of announced projects into operational resources remains a systemic vulnerability. According to CleanTechnica, the […]

North Macedonia has officially adopted its first dedicated renewable energy law, establishing a comprehensive regulatory framework aimed at attracting long-term capital to the sector.

The United States is on track to more than double its utility-scale battery storage fleet over the next 30 months. According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), developers plan to add 54 GW of new energy storage capacity, a figure that exceeds the country’s current operational total of nearly 52 GW. The sector has […]
