Geothermal and solar energy are two different ways to get power from the Earth and the sun. They are both renewable, but they're used very differently.
SolarEdge debuts three-phase Nexis for residential storage, Sigenergy targets solar parks with a new inverter, Kostal rolls out Solar 4me, and Hithium introduces modular Power Flex to ease BESS transport. These are this week's new products.
After reviewing dozens of solar batteries, CNET has named the Bluetti EP900 Home Battery Backup as the best pick for 2026, bumping the Tesla Powerwall from the top spot. It impressed us with strong performance, a solid warranty, a modular design and clear pricing.
Solar inverters convert your panels' direct current (DC) electricity to alternating current (AC) electricity that your home and appliances use. There are three types of solar inverters: string inverters, power optimizers (used with string inverters), and microinverters.
The new energy storage solutions resemble something from a sci-fi novel rather than traditional power banks. Let's peek under the hood: While Tesla's Megapack made headlines, San Marino opted for modular systems with liquid cooling - perfect for their hilly terrain.
Unlike traditional storage solutions, public welfare-focused systems prioritize accessibility and community impact. They"re designed to serve hospitals, schools, and rural areas - places where reliable power isn"t just convenient, but lifesaving.
Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
