Europe’s energy system is undergoing a rapid transformation, giving rise to new applications that are increasingly combining different climate-friendly technologies.

The energy transition has made the European energy supply cheaper and more secure. However, the market value of solar and wind power is under increasing pressure from low electricity prices, complicating financing. 

  The Dream Team: Hybrid Wind and Solar Power Plants Gain Market Share

The industry has an effective solution for this: hybrid power plants. They combine photovoltaics (PV) with wind and sometimes even a battery energy storage system (BESS). This combination offers several advantages, including higher energy yields and capacity due to complimentary generation profiles, stable generation, and efficient use of infrastructure, space and grid connection points. With BESS installed, renewable electricity can be fed into the grid according to price, consumption and grid signals.  Hybrid power plants will be a hot topic at Intersolar Europe. The world’s leading exhibition for the solar industry will take place from June 23–25, 2026, as part of The smarter E Europe at the Messe München.

US Wind has announced that the state of Maryland has awarded the company 808.5MW in Offshore Renewable Energy Credits (ORECs) for Momentum Wind, a new offshore wind project slated to come online in 2026.
 
The 55 turbines for Momentum Wind will be in addition to the 22 turbines anticipated for MarWin, the company’s first project for Maryland, which will be constructed in the same Lease area. In total, the two projects will have over 1,100 MW of capacity. Both projects will be supported by separate 20-year schedules of ORECs awarded by the state of Maryland. US Wind also plans to establish a new steel fabrication facility at Tradepoint Atlantic.
