Let’s celebrate the sun on one of the brightest days of the year. The 21st of June is European #Solar Day. It is a collaborative initiative led by SolarPower Europe. In Eurowind Energy the sun and the wind are our most important co-workers. Did you know that solar energy (called #photovoltaic or just #PV) is the fastest growing #renewable energy source in the EU? Last year 56 GW of PV were installed in the EU, according to the European Commission. The solar energy sector is expected to continue to grow in the coming decades, driven by large-scale installations and the rise of residential rooftop installations. Besides the clean energy, it creates a lot of jobs. The picture is from our beautiful PV-park in Triana, Portugal. The solar park located near Lisbon generates power to 14.100 households, while avoiding the emission of more than 19.000 tons of CO2 per year.

Last week I attended the #solarplazasummit in Lisbon, where I attempted to answer the question "Should every solar plant include energy storage?" in ten minutes (no mean feat!). For those of you unable to attend, here's a sneak peak at my (not totally unexpected) conclusion: ..."it depends". But what does it depend on? 💸 Evolution of revenue streams: Will Portuguese assets be able to participate in a future Spanish Capacity Market? How will solar cannibalisation and curtailment affect solar revenues? 💰 Costs: Will battery CAPEX drop? Will there be subsidies available like in Spain? ☀ How much solar will enter the market? How will that affect curtailment and solar capture prices? If you're interested in knowing more about Aurora Energy Research's vision on how each of these components are expected to evolve in Iberia, get in touch! Humberto Medrano Mendoza. Thanks Solarplaza for the great event as usual, looking forward to the next one! #batteries #storage #solarenergy #colocation

We are pleased to share the achievement of the construction and energization of the Solar Park "Petalo de Cordoba II" of 9.9 MW in Chinu, Cordoba. This project has an area of 26 hectares, with a system of 217 solar trackers, and a total of 22,568 bifacial PV panels. This is expected to achieve an annual reduction of approximately 15,000 Tn of CO2 emissions, and will supply around 19 million KW/h of clean electric energy, which will satisfy the electric needs of more than 8 thousand local homes. In this way, we demonstrate our commitment to the country's energy transition, contributing to the construction and development of new energies, as represented in this project in the photovoltaic industry, highlighting our sunlight resource, which is considered one of the best in Latin America. #RenewableEnergy #EnergiasRenovables #SolarEnergy #PhotovoltaicIndustry #Colombia

In 2023, 14 EU-27 markets installed more than 1 GW of solar in a year. According to SolarPower Europe estimates, these markets are Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland, the Netherlands, France, Austria, Belgium, Greece, Hungary, Sweden, Bulgaria, Romania and the Czech Republic. In 2024, the top 5 markets are expected to keep their relative positions. Germany is anticipated to continue representing one-fourth of the EU market and being the only member state installing a two-digit. 📸 Trina Solar Centrale Les Mées, Alpes de Haute Provence, France #solar #renewableenergy #santegroup #solarsolutions #futureofenergy #cleanenergy

SolarPower Europe's Agrisolar Best Practices Guidelines are now available in Japanese ☀ 👨🌾 The Best Practice Guidelines were originally developed by SolarPower Europe's Land Use and Permitting Workstream, detailing guidance for the deployment of sustainable #AgriPV practices for solar industry stakeholders. The report also addresses wider stakeholder groups and serves as an informative tool for the #Agrisolar sector. The report, now translated into Japanese by Institute for Sustainable Energy Policies, Japan Photovoltaic Energy Association, and Japan Solar Sharing Federation, will help share European best practices with a growing Agrisolar industry in Japan. Access the report here 👉 https://lnkd.in/ezj9G2yY You can also find the original version of the report, along with several other translated versions on the Agrisolar Europe website https://lnkd.in/eUv5QBQS

Back in 🇳🇱 Amsterdam after two fantastic weeks in Brazil! 😎 Aside from soaking up the sun, cherishing family time, and sipping on some delicious caipirinhas 🍹(you wish you were there!), I was fascinated by the widespread adoption of solar panels among consumers. ☀️ It's incredible to see homes and apartment buildings across the country embracing solar energy, including my own family's residences. 👉🏼With the recent approval of market protective measures, like the increase in import taxes on photovoltaic modules and wind turbines last December, I'm eager to see how this will shape the local market moving forward. Any insights or thoughts on the future of solar power in Brazil? . . . #RenewableEnergy #IRECs #BrazilianPowerMarket #SustainabilityJourney

Our CEO, Rodolfo Bigolin, will be speaking at the Large Scale Solar Series Summit on July 2 in Athens, Greece. His speech, titled "Why Southern Europe is the Key to Achieving Europe’s 2030 Targets," will focus on the transformative potential of Southern Europe in the solar industry. As one of the fastest growing solar markets in Europe, with Greece alone expected to add 10.9GW between 2024 and 2027, Southern Europe is poised to become a regional, if not global, leader in PV deployment. To realise this potential, we need to consider the market changes ahead as we approach the 2023 target deadline, and examine how policies, regulations and legislation are evolving to support this growth. Large Scale Solar Summit will address the most pressing challenges, opportunities and trends in the solar power generation industry, while also exploring complementary technologies such as energy storage and green hydrogen. This is a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of the ever-expanding solar market and a key player in the discussions, developments and progress towards meeting government targets.

Exciting developments in the Dutch solar energy sector! The growth the Dutch solar energy sector has experienced in recent years is remarkable. It's no coincidence that the Netherlands has quickly gone from a laggard to a world champion in solar power capacity per capita. This achievement is particularly noteworthy for a country with relatively limited sunshine and land area. However, this success also means that the Netherlands, as one of the first countries to adopt solar energy on a large scale, faces unique challenges in integrating solar power into the energy system. As a result, the solar energy sector is now entering a new phase. Both the residential and commercial segments require smart projects and developments that can deliver significant value with minimal grid capacity. This calls for innovation from both market players and policymakers because the sector cannot tackle these challenges alone. By partnering up with Energy Ports we can develop smart projects together to create elevated solar everywhere. Reach out to us at hello@energyports.com.
