Quality solar engineering services do more than get you through permitting, they help prevent redesigns, failed inspections, and costly delays. The right solar permit design ensures your project meets code, clears structural review, and gains utility approval without setbacks. With the 30 percent residential solar tax credit ending in 2025, and the commercial ITC phasing down soon after, timing is critical. Missing deadlines due to permitting ....
It didn’t start with a robot. It started with a problem. Clean energy is one of the hottest commodities today, and the world is rushing to meet this increasing demand. However, the typical financial barrier isn’t a problem for the industry; it’s labor. Skilled workers capable of installing solar infrastructure are needed more than ever, and there just aren’t enough to go around. This deficit is threatening the industry at a time when g....

Canada’s 100 largest publicly traded companies will require 7.7 gigawatts (GW) of renewable electricity by 2040 to meet their greenhouse gas reduction targets, enough to power 1.88 million Canadian homes. More than half of that demand must be secured by 2030, according to a new report from the Business Renewables Centre-Canada.
The report, From Pledge to Power: Translating ESG Goals into Renewable Energy Demand, offers a national analysis of how corporate climate targets translate into real electricity demand. It highlights a significant and time-sensitive opportunity for provinces to attract billions in clean energy investment, thousands of jobs, and millions in new revenue for municipalities across the country.
Beyond the direct benefits of building clean power projects, provinces that enable corporate renewable procurement also attract continued capital investment and jobs from companies seeking reliable, low-cost clean power to run their operations.
Our analysis reveals a major requirement for renewable energy in the coming years. At 7.7 GW of corporate demand identified, this represents more than a doubling of current solar capacity across Canada over the next five years. Corporations and institutions nationwide are committed to large-scale procurement of renewable energy. The main challenge faced by these corporations is whether governments across the country will implement policies that either enable or block this opportunity.

Paired Power, a solar-powered microgrid systems and software manufacturer, has partnered with PHNXX, an Australia-based designer and manufacturer of modular microgrid systems, to create PairPHNXX, the only portable microgrid solution requiring no assembly currently on the market.
PairPHNXX can be set up and installed in a day to power electrical systems with limited or no grid connection, including ranching and farming operations, construction, mining, and military applications. Other uses include emergency management and response and powering off-grid or remote communities that have little to no energy infrastructure.
Recognizing the potential PairPHNXX has for powering community facilities, essential services, and homes & schools, Paired Power has been accepted into the Preferred Provider Program of the Alliance for Tribal Clean Energy, an Indigenous led 501c3 nonprofit supporting Native American tribes in a just transition from extractive to renewable energy systems. Under the terms of the agreement, Paired Power and PHNXX are now approved partners to provide clean energy solutions to Native American and Aboriginal tribes.
“The global energy transition requires innovative solutions to help expand renewable energy use faster than the grid will allow it. Paired Power has pioneered delivering solar power and energy storage systems for EV charging, and we are expanding now into other microgrid applications with PHNXX,” said Tom McCalmont, CEO of Paired Power. “PairPHNXX allows for clean energy to be generated and deployed wherever and whenever it is needed, helping us reach those last frontiers of decarbonization within industries and in locations that have been held back by grid limitations and infrastructure costs. This is about making clean energy truly accessible for everyone, everywhere."
“PairPHNXX is bringing clean energy to the places the grid has left behind,” said Joel Tay, CEO of PHNXX. “By combining Paired Power’s energy management software with our modular microgrids, we’re delivering renewable power wherever it is needed. From tribal communities and farmers to remote industries and the military, this partnership is opening access to resilient clean energy where the grid can’t reach, and we’re just getting started.”
PairPHNXX is delivered in the footprint of a standard 20 ft. ISO shipping container, arriving onsite on the back of a flatbed trailer that can be placed, unfolded, and generating power within a single day. Depending on configuration, PairPHNXX can be delivered in solar capacities of 46.4 kW, 69.6 kW, or 92.8 kW, battery storage capacities of 42.4 to 636 kWh, and with output power from 30 to 60 kW per container at 208VAC or 480VAC, 3-phase or 120/240VAC single-phase.

Intelligent power management company Eaton announced the successful completion of a $100 million expansion project at its Nacogdoches, Texas manufacturing facility. The Eaton investment more than doubles its U.S. production capacity of voltage regulators and three-phase transformers, meeting growing global demand for the company’s solutions accelerating grid modernization.
To mark the milestone, Eaton welcomed representatives from Oncor, Texas’ largest energy delivery company, at its Nacogdoches facility. Oncor will receive the first shipment of voltage regulators from the new production lines.
“Having worked with Oncor for decades as both a valued customer and trusted collaborator, our organization is extremely grateful for their support,” said Guillaume Laur, Eaton senior vice president – Power Delivery and Regulation. “It is an honor to see our grid modernization solutions immediately being put to work in our community – and soon around the world – to help advance energy resilience, reliability and security.”
The project, launched in 2023, added 200,000-square-feet to Eaton’s Nacogdoches facility. The expanded manufacturing capacity strengthens Eaton’s position as one of the world’s largest suppliers of voltage regulators and capacitors, significantly boosting its U.S.-based manufacturing capabilities to serve both domestic and global customers.
Since 2023, Eaton has invested more than $1 billion in its North American manufacturing to advance electrification, the energy transition and digitalization across industries. Learn more about how Eaton is helping utilities design, build and operate a smart, modern electrical grid.

Enurgen, developer of the solar industry’s most accurate energy yield performance model, announced it has secured $4.1M USD in new financing. The round was co-led by Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), Brightspark, and Diagram, with participation from MaRS IAF.
The investment will accelerate the global expansion of Enurgen’s flagship software platform. Enurgen’s novel energy yield modelling software leverages advanced, physics-based models across the lifecycle of solar assets to deliver breakthrough rates of returns.
“This funding marks a major milestone for Enurgen,” said Kibby Pollak, CEO and Co-Founder of Enurgen. “In an era dominated by AI and LLMs, it’s crucial to recognize that critical systems like energy infrastructure continue to rely on physics-based models for accurate and deterministic outputs.”
Meeting Market Momentum
This investment meets a critical moment in the solar industry. Global adoption is surging, but the sector is grappling with intense growing pains. Key incentives are disappearing, designs are becoming more complex, and Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) prices are under constant pressure. This puts downward pressure on PPA prices and exacerbates the challenge of systemic underperformance, where projects often fail to meet their financial expectations. As a result, there is a surging demand for more accurate models that can maximize returns and ensure long-term cash flows are realized.
Enurgen’s novel, physics-based approach is well-positioned to solve the model-to-field accuracy problem. Backed by over a decade of research and development, the model delivers high-resolution, 3D solar irradiance modelling, enabling incident light calculations to scale from an individual solar cell to gigawatt-scale ($1B+) power plants.
“Solar PV is becoming the dominant (renewable) energy source, with panel costs plummeting faster than almost any technology in history—yet the software ecosystem remains stuck in the past,” said Éléonore Jarry, Partner at Brightspark Ventures. “Enurgen’s unique blend of deep academic R&D and strong commercial execution positions them perfectly to deliver the advanced 3D modelling infrastructure the industry desperately needs.”
