Renewable energy developers and IPPs discussed the growing attractiveness of co-locating storage and solar at Solar Finance & Investment Europe (SFIE) 2025 this week.
The start of 2025 has seen new and updated BESS revenue indexes launched for Germany as well as other other European markets, by optimiser enspired and consultancies Clean Horizon, Aurora Energy Research and LCP Delta.
IPPs BrightNight and Cordelio have announced a new power purchase agreement (PPA) for a 300MW solar and 1,200MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) facility with utility Arizona Public Service (APS), in Arizona, US.
Australian energy major AGL Energy disclosed in its half-year results that it intends to make a financial investment decision (FID) over the next 18 months for 1.4GW of utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS).
Ørsted has taken a final investment decision (FID) on a 250MW/500MWh BESS that will be co-located with one of the company’s operational solar facilities in Fort Bend County, Texas.
Virtual power plants (VPPs) are networks of small-scale, distributed energy resources, such as solar panels or batteries (and in some instances vehicles) which can together function as a single power plant, providing stability to the electric grid.
North American lithium-ion battery recycling specialist Li-Cycle has seen a significant increase in battery energy storage system (BESS) materials in its feedstock.
Battery storage played a crucial role in the Baltic region’s switch from Russia over to the Continental European grid over the weekend, coinciding with Lithuania launching a €100 million storage support scheme.
The energy storage market in Italy has unique characteristics that mean more risk-averse investment funds will be able to enter, but upcoming auctions could be very competitive, driving down clearing prices, a director at consultancy Timera Energy said.
Modo Energy has said that battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM) earned an average of AU$148,000/MW (US$92,810/MW) in 2024, a 45% increase year-on-year.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has published information and recommendations for battery management systems (BMS) in stationary energy storage applications.
