The so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), passed in July 2025, eliminated the 30% investment tax credit for residential systems installed after 31 December 2025. The deadline prompted what EnergySage said was one of the largest demand surges the US industry has ever seen. Pricing and procurement As a result, EnergySage said most US

But increasingly, field failures are being traced back to an overlooked source: the racking and tracker systems that support every module on site. These components don’t produce power, but they keep everything in place—holding modules at the right tilt, anchoring them against wind and protecting them from long-term wear and tear. Unlike modules, which come
Located in Sremska Mitrovica, northeastern Serbia, the project of the same name will combine the 270MW solar PV with a 72MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The project is expected to begin construction later this year, in the third quarter, while commissioning of the solar-plus-storage project is targeted for Q1 2028. Once operational, it is
