SPML Infra secures 1 GWh battery energy storage project from NTPC

SPML Infra has secured an INR 1,128 crore ($120 million) contract to develop a 1 GWh battery energy storage system (BESS) at NTPC Ltd’s Barauni Thermal Power Station in Bihar, marking its first large-scale BESS project.

Europe’s solar and storage development: Selectivity amid rising global supply and returning energy shocks

Escalating Middle East tensions and global energy supply risks are accelerating Europe’s shift toward solar and storage, particularly in commercial, industrial, and utility-scale segments where energy security, resilience, and price stability are becoming central investment drivers. At the same time, expanding manufacturing capacity in China and India is redirecting surplus solar and storage supply toward Europe, creating a highly competitive and increasingly selective market where long-term success depends on quality, reliability, ESG alignment, and strategic market positioning.

Oswal Pumps secures INR 162 crore solar pump order from MSEDCL

Oswal Pumps has secured an order from Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Co. Ltd. (MSEDCL) for the supply and installation of 6,869 off-grid solar PV water pumping systems in Maharashtra. The solar pumps will be deployed under Component B of the PM-KUSUM scheme, also known as the Magel Tyala Saur Krishi Pump Yojana.

Pratap Technocrats to deploy 570 MWh BESS at NTPC thermal power plants in Madhya Pradesh

Pratap Technocrats has secured a contract from NTPC to deploy 570 MWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS) at its super thermal power plants in Madhya Pradesh.

New technique measures water ingress in PV modules without disconnecting them

A German research team has developed a nondestructive, on-site method to quantify water ingress in photovoltaic modules using near-infrared absorption (NIRA) spectroscopy calibrated with Karl–Fischer titration (KFT). The approach enables precise measurement of absolute moisture content in sealed modules without disassembly, improving inspection, failure analysis, and lifetime prediction.

Indonesia tenders 1.2 GW of solar

Indonesia’s PLN has launched a tender for a 1,225 MW solar project that will be spread across several regions of the country. The state-owned utility has not publicly announced a closing date.

NTPC switches on 100 MW at Ramagundam solar project; ACME commissions BESS capacity in Rajasthan

NTPC Ltd has declared the commercial operation of 100 MW out of the total 176 MW solar PV project in Ramagundam, Telangana. In a separate development, ACME Solar has commissioned a 33.333 MW/160.480 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) project at Badi Sid village in Rajasthan.

Maximising plant profitability: Why solar panel cleaning is critical for stronger ROI

The long-term value of a solar power plant depends on its ability to consistently deliver expected energy output. Soiling is a predictable and manageable factor that directly affects both performance and revenue. Addressing it through regular and structured cleaning practices is essential for maintaining efficiency and protecting returns.

Rooftop solar surges to new high in Australia on back of battery boom

Australia’s rooftop solar market climbed by 31% in the past month with the latest data revealing that a record 442 MW of small-scale PV capacity was installed across the country in April 2026.

NTPC Renewable Energy tenders BoS package for 900 MW solar in Andhra Pradesh

NTPC Renewable Energy Ltd has invited bids for the balance of system (BoS) package for the development of 900 MW of grid-connected solar PV projects at Kurnool in Andhra Pradesh. The tender covers two projects (500 MW and 400 MW) with a combined capacity of 900 MW.
