Why tech-enabled, solar-compatible BESS will power the next energy boom
The next clean-energy boom will be driven not only by renewable generation but by intelligent storage. Tech-enabled, solar-compatible battery energy storage systems (BESS) will make clean energy predictable, resilient, and commercially viable at scale.
Silent bottleneck in India’s EV transition: Roadmap for localization, talent and better user experience
Several EV and charging components such as rectifiers, power modules, semiconductors, battery cells and PCBs are still largely imported. These create ecosystem-wide challenges including supply volatility, cost exposure, limited local integration, and scaling constraints. However, these gaps also represent one of India’s biggest opportunities.

What India needs to accelerate sustainable lending post-budget
The next phase of green growth will depend on how quickly capital reaches businesses that are ready to modernize, become energy-efficient, and invest in cleaner production systems. The question is no longer whether sustainable lending will grow, it is how fast we can remove the barriers preventing it from scaling.
Mexico mandates social impact reviews for BESS projects
New rules from Mexico’s Secretaría de Energía require battery energy storage systems (BESS) to submit social impact assessments for the first time, with stricter obligations above 250 MWh.
Solar module prices rise faster than expected in February
Solar module prices increased by €0.01 ($ 0.012)/W to €0.015/W in February, lifting levels 15% to 18% above the December 2024 low despite falling wafer costs, as manufacturers seek to restore margins after prolonged losses.
