[Solar: France’s small-scale PV market slows sharply in 2025]

EDF power solutions North America has signed two 25-year PPAs with Nevada utility NV Energy for the Winston Energy Project in Lyon County, Nevada. The project will combine 400MW AC of solar PV with a 400MW/1,600MWh battery storage system, with commercial operation targeted for October 2029. Once completed, it is expected to generate close to 1,110,000MWh annually and supply electricity to NV Energy customers. SMM believes large solar-plus-storage projects in the US West are securing revenues through long-term utility PPAs, with four-hour storage continuing to improve dispatchability and grid value.

It expects energy storage shipments to grow significantly next year, with growth rate mainly depending on the pace of capacity release. Regionally, the proportion of outside China will also increase this year, mainly benefiting from the ramp-up of international clients. The company's energy storage segment growth is primarily concentrated in emerging fields such as electricity ESS, grid-forming ESS, and AIDC.
