A product launch at this year’s EESA Energy Storage Exhibition in China drew attention, discussion and even disbelief, reports Carrie Xiao.

Statera Energy has begun operating the biggest BESS project in the UK, connected to a National Grid substation that formerly supported two coal power plants.

Now is the moment for long-duration energy storage to become a key pillar of the energy transition, writes LDES Council CEO Julia Souder.

Construction has begun in western Lithuania on a 30MW/60MWh grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) project using CATL equipment.

Commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage can significantly lower electricity costs, increase efficiency, and aid decarbonisation, but customers’ safety concerns must be addressed.

Energy storage system safety is being taken to new levels, as evidenced by the fire testing efforts of Chinese market players, writes Carrie Xiao.

Iron flow battery company ESS Tech Inc (ESS Inc) has warned of substantial doubts about its ability to survive another year.

State-owned power producer NTPC has issued a tender for battery energy storage system (BESS) projects at thermal power plants in Uttar Pradesh, India.

Drew Bandhauer of Leeward Renewable Energy examines how changes in lithium-ion battery chemistries help manage fire safety risk and how industry standards are evolving in step with technological advances.

India’s ambitious drive for renewable energy has accelerated the need for energy storage, but there are many factors to success, writes Charith Konda of the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA).
