EVs with vehicle-to-home technology reduce need for large home batteries

Researchers from South and Western Australia have found electric vehicles equipped with vehicle-to-home technology can reduce the need for large home battery systems.

482 kWh community battery powers community indoor cricket stadium

Victorian community-owned clean energy developer Indigo Power has launched a 482 kWh community battery with 100 kW inverter at the Cricket Albury Wodonga Indoor Stadium, co-located with an existing 98 kW solar system.

CleanPeak Energy to acquire Sustainable Energy Infrastructure portfolio

Sydney-based renewable energy company CleanPeak Energy Holdings has agreed to acquire Adelaide-headquartered owner and developer of solar and battery assets Sustainable Energy Infrastructure.

Free midday electricity key to drive consumer demand to match excess PV generation

Free midday electricity schemes aim to shift household demand into periods of high solar PV generation, reducing midday surplus and evening fossil-fuel ramp-up. Research on Australia’s Solar Sharer program suggests such incentives could significantly improve renewable utilisation, but outcomes depend on consumer behaviour, load shifting, and rebound effects.

Dyness secures CEC approval for modular battery system

Chinese battery energy storage system manufacturer Dyness has expanded its available product portfolio in the Australian market with its Stack100 Pro securing the official tick of approval from the Clean Energy Council.

How solar farms shape local climate and vegetation in arid regions

Researchers have found that PV plants in arid regions create a measurable cool island effect that varies strongly with season, location, and plant design, influencing surrounding vegetation in complex and spatially uneven ways. They showed that cooling intensity and distance differ widely across sites, are driven mainly by plant morphology,

6 GW green hydrogen project for WA part of federal fast-track plans

Plans to build a green hydrogen production facility powered by up to 6 GW of solar and wind generation in Western Australia are moving forward with the project selected for accelerated development under the federal government’s new Investor Front Door pilot program.

Solar leads global additions in 2025 as wind growth accelerates

A new report from global energy think tank Ember shows 814 GWdc in new solar and wind capacity was installed in 2025, but the pace of wind deployment rose 47% year-over-year compared to just 11% for solar.
