"We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to soon be joining Daimler Truck and Volvo Group as partners in building a hydrogen society," Toyota President and CEO Koji Sato said. "cellcentric which possess deep expertise in commercial fields together with Toyota's over 30 years of fuel-cell development in the passenger car sector, can combine their strengths to deliver one of the world-leading fuel cell systems for heavy commercial vehicles."
"A more decentralized energy system, with a growing share of renewables and more market players, is structurally more resilient. Countries that invested in the energy transition are weathering this crisis with less economic damage, as they boost energy security, resilience and competitiveness."
SolarEdge stock is up 80% year-to-date and has tripled over the past year. Revenue came in at $335.36 million, up 96.4% year-over-year, reflecting recovering demand in its core inverter business.
The most consequential shift for anyone considering rooftop solar in 2026 is the expiration of Section 25D, the Residential Clean Energy Credit. That 30% credit, which was worth up to $9,000 on a $30,000 system, is no longer available for home solar installations. The One Big Beautiful Bill, signed July 4, 2025, accelerated the phase-out that the Inflation Reduction Act had originally extended through 2034.
People who could afford to do it at that time realised that it was much cheaper and cost-effective and better for them in the long run to do a one-time investment in rooftop solar as opposed to keep paying high electricity bills from a grid that is also unreliable, said Nabiya Imran, an associate at Renewables First, a Pakistani thinktank.
The group points out, correctly, that the grid is designed for brief bursts of high demand; most of the time there's lots of capacity that goes unused. Utilize thinks that should change. The group argues that smarter ways to use that capacity already exist. Utilize name checks a number of those solutions, including battery storage, demand response, and virtual power plants, all of which have emerged en masse over the last decade, but remain under utilized.
Photovoltaic (PV) solar energy represents a modular technology that can be manufactured in large-scale facilities, generating economies of scale, while also being adaptable to small-scale applications. From residential rooftop systems to large-scale power generation installations, photovoltaic solar energy has established itself as a cost-effective option for electricity production in many countries around the world.
Spaces of light and darkness are conceived to enhance circulation and spatial directionality, as well as to highlight the colors, textures, and forms of specific architectural elements. That said, the impact of natural light on building facades reveals the need to develop strategies that support energy savings, improve the thermal and visual comfort of interior spaces, and promote the reduction of carbon emissions.
Subzero temperatures don't pose a problem for heat pumps. The refrigerants used in the heat exchanger, which transfers heat from outside a building to inside, have an extremely low boiling point below minus 40 C. That means even when it's very cold, a heat pump can absorb ambient heat from the outside air and use it to warm a building.
The pioneering technology means one of the oldest forms of energy storage, hydropower, can be used to store and release renewable energy using even gentle slopes rather than the steep dam walls and mountains that are usually required. The design means the principles of hydropower could be used as a form of long duration energy storage in many more locations across the UK, and the world, than traditional hydropower dams. The projects could be quicker and cheaper to build too.
"While interstitial milestones are really important to show that the technology works and you can get regulatory approval, at the end of the day, it's about deploying power plants at scale to support the growing power needs," Helion cofounder and CEO David Kirtley told Fortune.
Anker SOLIX E10 is a smart hybrid whole-home backup system that blends batteries, green solar power, and a smart generator into one coordinated setup. It is designed to keep an entire house running, not just a few circuits, and is rated for whole-home backup with a 200-amp connection when paired with its Power Dock, matching a typical US main panel.
The Jackery Explorer 300 Portable Power Station provides a convenient means to keep mobile devices and campsite accessories powered when they're not near an electrical outlet. It is a rectangular-shaped unit with a built-in handle and weighs approximately 7.1 pounds, making it easy to transport to other areas within the home or pack into the car. The chassis contains a rechargeable 293Wh Lithium-Ion battery that provides adequate power for a variety of small devices during short-duration power outages or camping adventures.
In the rolling hills of southeast Queensland, Australia, farmer and businessman Brent Finlay stands beneath turbines so tall they rival skyscrapers. "There's a lift inside that takes about 12 minutes to go from the bottom to the top," he said, pointing skyward. Forty-five of the giant turbines that now dot his property are part of the massive MacIntyre Wind Farm which will soon generate enough electricity to power 700,000 homes.
We can keep tethering ourselves to volatile geopolitics, to fossil fuel prices we'll never control, and to an energy system built on instability and extraction-or we can choose the alternative that's right in front of us: harnessing the sun here at home on our own rooftops. By rapidly accelerating local solar in New York, we can build power right here in our communities, beyond the reach of coups, cartels, and commodity shocks.
