Efficient battery management will determine the profitability of renewable energy projects
Energy storage development is now the cornerstone of renewable energy development. After the blackout of April 28 in the Iberian Peninsula, it has become clear that the stability and reliability of the electricity grid in the future depend to a large extent on the deployment of batteries. If batteries are managed optimally, they can generate good profitability over their lifetime. In this five-year period, which began in January, photovoltaic energy will be installed hybridised with batteries to achieve better IRR and obtain financing.

Photovoltaic energy records and more wind energy help to contain European electricity market prices in the fourth week of May
During the fourth week of May, prices fell in most major European electricity markets, while in others they remained stable, with slight increases. Increased wind energy production and all-time records for solar photovoltaic energy generation in France and Portugal, together with the maximum for a day in May in Italy, helped to contain prices. In addition, electricity demand fell in most markets. In contrast, gas prices rose compared to the previous week.
