Today’s renewable energy news includes announcements from Nadara, Capalo AI, Samsung SDI, EWP, and others.
Nadara Selects ZX 300E Turbines for UK Onshore Wind Repowering
Nadara has selected ZX 300E wind turbines for a major onshore wind repowering project in the UK, advancing efforts to modernise existing wind assets and boost generation efficiency. The repowering will replace older turbines with higher-capacity, more efficient technology, significantly increasing energy output while reducing the number of turbines on site. The project reflects growing investment in wind repowering, a cost-effective way to unlock additional clean power using existing grid connections and permits. For consumers, the upgrade delivers more reliable, low-carbon electricity and improved value from established wind sites. The initiative supports the UK’s renewable energy and net-zero targets, while reinforcing Nadara’s strategy to optimise its portfolio through technology-led upgrades and long-term sustainable power generation.
Capalo AI Raises EUR 11m to Scale Battery Optimisation and Energy Trading
Capalo AI has secured EUR 11 million in funding to strengthen its battery optimisation and energy trading operations, supporting the rapid growth of grid-scale energy storage across Europe. The investment will be used to expand Capalo AI’s AI-driven trading platform, enhance algorithm development, and scale commercial activities in key power markets. As battery energy storage systems (BESS) play an increasing role in balancing renewable-heavy grids, advanced optimisation software is critical to maximise revenues, flexibility value, and system efficiency. For asset owners, Capalo AI’s technology enables smarter participation in wholesale, balancing, and ancillary services markets. The funding round highlights rising investor confidence in digital energy solutions and positions Capalo AI to accelerate deployment of intelligent storage optimisation, supporting Europe’s energy transition, grid stability, and decarbonisation goals.
Samsung SDI and EWP to Explore Global Energy Storage and Renewable Projects
Samsung SDI and EWP have signed an agreement to jointly explore energy storage systems (ESS) and renewable energy projects worldwide, strengthening collaboration across the clean energy value chain. The partnership will focus on identifying opportunities that combine advanced battery technology with utility-scale solar and wind developments. The collaboration reflects accelerating global demand for energy storage to support intermittent renewable generation and enhance grid flexibility. By pairing Samsung SDI’s battery and ESS expertise with EWP’s project development capabilities, the partners aim to deliver reliable, scalable clean energy solutions. For utilities and consumers, the projects could improve grid stability, energy security, and cost efficiency. The initiative highlights continued investment momentum in storage-backed renewables, supporting the global energy transition and decarbonisation efforts.
