The European energy storage market has been incredibly hot lately. In just a few days, two large orders from Chinese companies were secured, totaling nearly 10 GWh. This figure is substantial in the European market, roughly equivalent to the annual new energy storage capacity of a medium-sized country. Such order density is unusual for Chinese energy storage companies. More important...
According to data from the think tank Ember, the global installed capacity of solar photovoltaic power will reach 647 GW in 2025, an increase of 11% over the previous year. Combined with wind power, these two technologies added a record 814 GW of solar PV capacity in 2025, with nearly 4 GW of new solar PV capacity added for every 1 GW of new wind power. More than half of the solar PV...
A new study indicates that Europe's photovoltaic (PV) recycling capacity will lag behind projected waste volumes in the coming decades. The study, conducted by the University of Murcia and the EU Joint Research Centre, reveals a growing mismatch between projected PV waste flows and existing recycling infrastructure between 2030 and 2050. The study estimates that while the EU currently has a recycl...
