Axis Energy plans to develop a diversified portfolio of nearly 5 GW of clean energy capacity across wind, solar, agri-photovoltaic (agri-PV), hybrid projects, and battery energy storage systems (BESS) with an investment of INR 31,750 crore.

The GWh-scale long-duration energy storage project is expected to reduce curtailment in Xinjiang, a region of China with high solar and wind generation, and transmission bottlenecks. The flow battery installation is co-located with a PV plant.

France-based DOTSun has developed an on-site repair solution for solar panels with degraded backsheets, compatible with PA, PVDF, and PET types. The system uses a compact laminator to apply a protective film to the rear side of the module, reportedly restoring insulation and extending the service life of up to 2,000 panels per site.

Adani Green Energy Twenty Five B Ltd, a wholly owned step-down subsidiary of Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL), has entered into key agreements for the supply of 20.8 MW of solar-wind hybrid power to Asahi India Glass Ltd (AIS). The power will be supplied from a 25 MW solar power plant unit and a 20.8 MW wind power plant unit, both located at Khavda, Gujarat.

The Indian power system is evolving faster than most global peers. Electricity demand is rising. Rooftop solar, electric mobility, and distributed generation are accelerating. The grid, once designed for predictable one-direction flows, is becoming a dynamic, decentralised organism. To manage it, India requires data that is just as distributed as the energy sources feeding the system. This is where decentralised RF mesh networks have begun to play an important role.

Google is set to acquire solar and storage developer Intersect Power, arming itself with the tools to bypass grid bottlenecks and build the projects that will power its AI data centers.

Inox Clean Energy Ltd has raised around INR 3,100 crore through an equity round involving the company and its subsidiary, Inox Solar Ltd. The company said the equity infusion will support its plans to achieve 10 GW of installed IPP capacity and 11 GW of integrated solar module manufacturing capacity by FY28.

L&T Construction has commissioned 185 MW of grid-connected solar capacity coupled with a 254 MWh battery energy storage system at Kajra in Bihar’s Lakhisarai district, marking India’s largest commissioned solar-plus-BESS project to date.

Chinese authorities are planning to implement a series of policy measures to introduce stronger intellectual property protection to the country’s photovoltaic sector. Chinese enterprises are being encouraged to accelerate technological advancements and reserve basic patents for developing technologies.

TP Solar Ltd, the solar manufacturing arm of Tata Power Renewable Energy Ltd (TPREL), produced 2.8 GW of solar cells and 2.9 GW of modules during the nine-month period ended Dec. 2025 (9M FY26).
