    Queensland's wholesale power price fell 40% in a year - the state generator credits the battery build-out

    CleanCo's FY26 annual report: Queensland average wholesale electricity fell to AU$65.47/MWh from AU$109.54/MWh. The state-owned generator points at a rush of utility-scale batteries, plus good wind and solar weather and steadier thermal plant. Evening peaks were softer. CleanCo still posted a loss.

    Spain will put a new capacity charge on power bills - and pay factories that can cut load when the grid is stressed

    Spain's ministry published the order for a peninsular capacity market. Generation, batteries and demand can earn for being available in stress hours. Consumers and suppliers fund it through time-differentiated unit charges - stress periods capped at 10% of the year carry more of the cost.

    A Moroccan phosphate mine switched on a five-hour battery next to its solar - lunchtime sun for the night shift on the plant

    OCP Green Energy energised a 25 MW / 125 MWh lithium iron phosphate battery at the Benguerir phosphate mining site in Morocco - five hours at full power - and began progressive commissioning. The box sits with the site's solar so daytime generation can cover later industrial demand.
