Today’s renewable energy news includes announcements from Fortis Energy, EBRD, Grenergy, Burgenland, and others.
Fortis and EBRD Advance Solar Development in Serbia
Fortis Energy and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) are advancing solar power development in Serbia, supporting the country’s renewable energy expansion and decarbonization goals. The collaboration focuses on financing and progressing utility-scale solar projects that will strengthen Serbia’s clean electricity capacity and modernize its energy infrastructure. The initiative aligns with Serbia’s efforts to diversify its energy mix and reduce reliance on coal-fired generation. Backed by EBRD support, the solar developments are expected to enhance grid reliability, attract private investment, and accelerate the country’s transition toward sustainable power generation. The partnership underscores growing international backing for renewable energy projects in Southeast Europe, positioning Serbia as an emerging market for large-scale solar investment and long-term energy transformation.
Grenergy Secures UK Solar Contract for Difference (CfD) Award
Grenergy has won a UK solar Contract for Difference (CfD), securing long-term revenue support for a utility-scale photovoltaic project. The CfD award provides price stability through a government-backed mechanism, strengthening the project’s financial viability and enabling construction to move forward. The solar development will contribute to the UK’s expanding renewable energy capacity and support national decarbonization targets. By locking in stable revenues, the CfD framework reduces market risk and enhances investor confidence in large-scale clean energy projects. The win reinforces Grenergy’s growing presence in the UK renewable energy market and highlights continued momentum in solar deployment under the UK’s competitive CfD scheme, driving sustainable power generation and long-term energy security.
Burgenland Launches Austria’s Largest Wind Farm
Austria’s Burgenland region has launched the country’s largest wind farm, marking a major milestone in national renewable energy expansion. The large-scale onshore wind project significantly boosts Austria’s clean power capacity and strengthens efforts to achieve climate neutrality targets. Equipped with modern, high-efficiency wind turbines, the wind farm is expected to generate substantial renewable electricity, supplying thousands of households while reducing carbon emissions. The project also enhances regional energy independence and supports grid stability as Austria accelerates its energy transition. The launch underscores Burgenland’s leadership in wind energy development and reflects continued investment in sustainable infrastructure. The project positions Austria to further expand onshore wind capacity and advance long-term decarbonization and energy security goals.
