Mountains to climb 

Energy security is the topic of the moment, and solar is poised to plug the gap. This month we zoom in on Asia where yet another fossil fuel driven energy crisis sees nations turn to solar for cheaper, less conflict-dependent power.

With damage to fossil fuel production sites across the Middle East region and the Strait of Hormuz closed for several weeks at least, global energy markets are taking an unprecedented hit.

Description

“Markets are still responding to events as they happen,” said IEEFA analyst Sam Reynolds in this issue, which is packed with expert insight into how vulnerable markets can turn historic fossil fuel dependency into economic strength – and what this might mean for solar. Can oil’s crisis be solar’s gain? 

The magazine also features in depth coverage of growing markets including Pakistan, Mongolia, and the Philippines. pv magazine Latin America’s Luis Ini reports on Cuba’s energy blackouts and electricity infrastructure issues – and why solar is providing a lifeline to many in a country that is enduring frequent blackouts often lasting 16 hours or more.

And don’t miss our deep dive into how last year’s policy reforms in China have changed project economics by exposing them to the mercies of the market. Yujia Han explores how the policy reset and new spot market approach could affect standalone battery storage bottom lines. Meanwhile, “This round of reform hits solar especially hard”, as pv magazine China’s Vincent Shaw put it in his report. It’s a must read ahead of SNEC 2026 in early June in Shanghai. We’ll see you there!

What you’ll find in this issue:

  • Mongolia’s solar opportunity: Mongolia could export electricity via connected grids across China, Russia, Japan and South Korea.
  • Pakistan’s net metering debacle: Regulatory stumbles amid booming distributed solar generation.
  • Manufacturing centers: Capital expenditure and technology selection in China, India and the United States.
  • The best laid plans: Elon Musk’s plans to build 100 GW of PV manufacturing capacity in the United States in three years.
  • Compressed air energy storage: A flurry of record-breaking utility-scale plants ramping up this long duration storage technology.
