It has been a summer to remember for the global energy sector. Unprecedented droughts across Central Europe dried up the Danube and forced several nuclear power plants, which rely on the river for cooling, to shut down. Meanwhile, many countries in the Northern Hemisphere generated record levels of solar power.

Another historic solar-themed story – the construction of Steel River, the US’ s largestever solar farm – is covered in this magazine, but we also look further afield with stories on:

• Big Tech’ s burgeoning relationship with nuclear energy

• The race to harness geothermal power

• How virtual power plants can unlock wasted energy from the grid

So, cool off, stretch out and please enjoy the September edition of Energy Digital.
