Beijing – September 08, 2026 -- Power Construction Corporation of China (POWERCHINA) is developing more than 1.8 GW of wind capacity in Egypt while breaking ground on a new energy storage manufacturing facility, deepening its role in the country's renewable energy buildout.

Wind portfolio exceeds 1.8 GW across three projects in the Gulf of Suez and Ras Ghareb

The company's operational and under-construction wind assets include the 500MW Amunet Gulf of Suez Wind Project, now fully online, alongside the 1.1GW Gulf of Suez Wind Project and the 202.5MW Ras Ghareb Wind Project, both currently under construction. During Amunet's build, POWERCHINA managed temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, strong winds and sand erosion by adjusting concrete-pouring schedules and monitoring wind speeds during turbine installation. The project secured its acceptance certificate ahead of contractual deadline and received the 2025 RoSPA Health and Safety Award.

Mühlhausen – September 07, 2026 -- LichtBlick has commissioned its largest solar park to date in Mühlhausen, Thuringia, a facility spanning approximately 37 hectares with roughly 71,000 solar modules that will generate around 45 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually, enough to supply more than 13,000 households.

New substation enables grid connection for record-scale facility

A dedicated substation was built specifically to feed the generated power into the electricity grid, supporting the scale of the installation. The project marks the second photovoltaic development LichtBlick has completed in the current fiscal year, part of an accelerated buildout of its own generation capacity.

Chicago – September 07, 2026 -- Reactivate and The Obama Foundation have signed a multi-year agreement making the Foundation the anchor tenant for community solar projects across Illinois, a structure designed to let low-to-moderate income households and small businesses cut utility bills by up to 50%.

Obama Foundation anchors solar portfolio to unlock financing for local subscribers

Under the deal, the Foundation commits to purchasing a portion of solar output from projects developed, owned and operated by Reactivate, a move that stabilizes project economics and frees remaining capacity for subscription by residents and businesses through the Illinois Solar For All program or other regional community solar schemes.
