Today’s renewable energy news includes announcements from RWE, Zelestra, Terpel, and others.
RWE Doubles Italy Renewable Energy Build to 235 MW, Accelerating Solar Growth
RWE has doubled its renewable energy capacity under development in Italy to 235 MW, strengthening its position in the country’s fast-growing solar power market. The expanded portfolio primarily includes utility-scale solar PV projects that will deliver clean electricity to Italy’s national grid and support national decarbonization targets. Italy remains a key renewable energy hub in Europe, driven by strong policy support and rising demand for low-carbon power. RWE’s 235 MW solar expansion aligns with its broader European growth strategy, focused on scaling solar and wind assets in high-potential markets. The move underscores continued investment in large-scale renewable energy projects across Italy, boosting solar capacity, enhancing energy security, and accelerating the transition to a sustainable power system.
Zelestra Advances Klevenow Solar Project, Expanding European Renewable Energy Portfolio
Zelestra has advanced development of the Klevenow solar project, strengthening its renewable energy footprint in Europe. The utility-scale solar build marks continued progress in the company’s strategy to expand photovoltaic (PV) capacity across high-growth markets. The Klevenow solar project is expected to deliver clean, low-carbon electricity to the regional grid, supporting decarbonization targets and enhancing local energy security. By accelerating construction and development milestones, Zelestra reinforces its commitment to large-scale solar deployment and sustainable infrastructure investment. The advancement highlights growing momentum in Europe’s solar sector, where developers are scaling projects to meet rising electricity demand and climate goals. Zelestra continues to position itself as a key player in the global renewable energy transition.
Terpel to Acquire 26 MWp Pétalo Solar Plant, Expanding Renewable Energy Portfolio
Terpel has agreed to acquire the 26 MWp Pétalo solar plant, strengthening its position in the renewable energy sector and advancing its clean energy strategy. The utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) facility will add 26 megawatts-peak (MWp) of solar capacity to Terpel’s growing portfolio, supporting long-term decarbonization goals. The Pétalo solar plant is expected to generate low-carbon electricity for the grid, contributing to energy diversification and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The acquisition aligns with Terpel’s broader transition strategy as energy companies increasingly invest in solar power assets to meet sustainability targets. The deal highlights continued consolidation in the solar energy market, as established energy players expand into utility-scale renewable generation to enhance energy security and environmental performance.
