The outlook points to strong growth in renewable and battery capacity, including more than 90 GW of additional solar power and a doubling of battery storage since last summer. Potential adequacy concerns remain limited to a small number of less interconnected markets, including Cyprus, Ireland, Malta and Moldova.Press release follows.
