Europe’s energy system is undergoing a rapid transformation, giving rise to new applications that are increasingly combining different climate-friendly technologies.

The energy transition has made the European energy supply cheaper and more secure. However, the market value of solar and wind power is under increasing pressure from low electricity prices, complicating financing. 

  The Dream Team: Hybrid Wind and Solar Power Plants Gain Market Share

The industry has an effective solution for this: hybrid power plants. They combine photovoltaics (PV) with wind and sometimes even a battery energy storage system (BESS). This combination offers several advantages, including higher energy yields and capacity due to complimentary generation profiles, stable generation, and efficient use of infrastructure, space and grid connection points. With BESS installed, renewable electricity can be fed into the grid according to price, consumption and grid signals.  Hybrid power plants will be a hot topic at Intersolar Europe. The world’s leading exhibition for the solar industry will take place from June 23–25, 2026, as part of The smarter E Europe at the Messe München.

Liebherr has introduced its new main bearing. This component is a new development that complements the existing Liebherr portfolio of slewing bearings for electromechanical and hydraulic rotor blade and yaw adjustment of wind turbines.
 
The main bearings can be used in wind turbines with a capacity of 2MW and upwards. Liebherr offers bearings in two main designs: double-row tapered roller bearings and triple-row roller bearing slewing rings. The sealing concept for slewing bearings ensures that the inside of the bearings is protected against dirt and moisture and prevents the lubricant from escaping.
