In 2025, the UK government moved fast on legislation and reform to support the country’s renewable energy efforts. “With the Clean Power 2030 Action Plan acting as the impetus,” Shraiya Thapa, clean energy senior knowledge lead at law firm Freeths, said, “the government has moved at pace this year.” Thapa highlighted both the Solar
With a Solis battery or hybrid inverter we can set it to charge up the house batteries on a cheap power tariff, usually overnight, and then use that cheap electricity to power the house during the day. Setting TOU Charging on SolisCloud 1. While logged into the Solis online interface, SolisCloud.com, on the Overview
There were long spells earlier this year when every time morning rolled around, it was another day of sun. The UK has in fact been getting sunnier since the 1980s, but scientists can't yet say why. The UK has already recorded its sunniest year ever, with two weeks of 2025 still to go. But
Fox ESS, a global leader in renewable energy solutions, has been ranked the number one provider of residential energy storage systems in Europe, the UK, and Poland in H1 2025, based on MWh shipments in S&P Global Energy Residential Energy Storage Index. This milestone highlights the company's rapid growth and its ability to deliver
For decades, solar energy has been hailed as one of the most promising answers to the climate crisis. But while its ability to produce clean power is well known, new research from China reveals that large solar farms can do far more than generate electricity—they can actually transform entire ecosystems. A groundbreaking study in
Renewable energy in buildings was once seen as a green luxury, commendable but far from essential. Now it is reshaping the fundamentals of property value. Solar PV, battery storage and other on-site renewable technologies have moved from being optional add-ons to becoming central components of a building's financial performance, resilience and long-term viability. Yet
The benefits of generating power from solar panels in regards to being climate-friendly are known, but it turns out solar panels offer widespread benefits even beyond that. A study examined years' worth of data regarding solar panel usage and its impact, ultimately finding that this technology saved nearly 600 people from premature deaths due
When the clocks go back and the days close in, it’s natural to wonder whether solar panels can still pull their weight. The UK’s short daylight hours and famously grey skies fuel a common misconception that solar panels ‘switch off’ in winter. In reality, photovoltaic (PV) systems continue producing electricity throughout the colder months,
If you’re considering installing solar panels at home, you’ve likely come across solar batteries, which are large lithium-ion packs that store excess power for when the sun isn’t shining. Using the same technology found in electric vehicles, these batteries let you use stored solar energy at night, charge from the grid during off-peak hours,
Millions of rooftops are quietly doing what big power plants can’t Home solar marks a fundamental shift in how we produce and consume energy. The rooftop panels are quietly transforming what, for over a century, had been a centralized power model into one that is far more dynamic and resilient. This decentralized model is
