Revera Energy secures $213 million facility to accelerate pipeline in Australia
London-based clean energy developer Revera Energy has bagged a $213 million facility to accelerate a multi-GW pipeline in Australia and the United Kingdom.
How to combine mechanised farming with agrivoltaics
An international study finds that successful agrivoltaic projects require farm-specific, holistic co-design that integrates solar layout with agricultural mechanisation from the earliest planning stages. Without proper alignment between machinery, crops, and solar systems, agrivoltaics risk major land loss, lower field efficiency, and higher operating costs, undermining farm profitability.
Rooftop solar volumes drop 34% after four month growth
The latest rooftop solar figures from market analyst SunWiz show small scale technology certificate volumes dropped sharply by 32% after four months of growth, though January outcomes were broadly in line with seasonal norms.
Fimer launches advanced solar array sizing simulation tool
Italian inverter manufacturer Fimer has launched a new advanced photovoltaic array sizing simulation tool that combines real site data with customer behaviour accessed through its cloud-based project management platform Aurora Vision.
50 MW First Nations solar farm lands first customer
The Western Australia government has partnered with traditional owners of Ngarluma Country in the Pilbara, and Perth based conglomerate Perdaman, to progress the Ngarluma Green Energy Park with the development of a proposed 50 MW solar farm.
Guided-learning model for PV power forecasting without irradiance sensors
South Korean researchers have developed a guided-learning framework that accurately predicts PV power without requiring irradiance sensors during operation, using routine meteorological data instead. The model reportedly showed strong out-of-sample performance while outperforming conventional irradiance-based approaches, particularly under noisy or inconsistent data conditions.
Rooftop solar hits 28.3 GW as home battery uptake ‘straps on a rocket’
Australia’s rooftop solar fleet continues to expand with a combined 28.3 GW of generation capacity commissioned by the end of 2025 with approximately 4.3 million installations across the country.
Developer lands federal backing for 26 GW green hydrogen hub in WA’s Pilbara
Plans to build a 26 GW solar, wind, and green hydrogen project in Western Australia’s Pilbara are set to accelerate with the federal government providing a $21 million funding injection to further advance the project.
Cargill launches on-site solar system at Newcastle plant
Cargill, the world’s largest agricultural commodities trader, has launched its first utility-scale renewable energy project in Australia, switching on a 2.58 MW solar array at its Newcastle oilseed processing facility.
Growatt launches 5 kWh AC-coupled battery storage system
The IP66-rated Aura 5000 energy storage system features bidirectional inverter functionality and an AC output of up to 2.5 kW.
