Irish utility and IPP ESB has received planning consent for a project combining wind and battery energy storage system (BESS) technology in Scotland, UK.
The BESS industry is looking at ways to leverage the 45x tax credit for domestic cell manufacturing in the US, with the domestic content investment tax credit (ITC) bonus still unclear.
Battery energy storage system (BESS) technology could reduce the cost of curtailing wind production in the UK by up to 80%, after over US$1 billion was spent last year, a developer said.
Developer and operator EsVolta has secured a US$185 million senior secured credit facility for its US battery energy storage system (BESS) project pipeline.
A second life energy storage assembly plant has opened in Germany, amidst a rapid fall in battery prices which could threaten the economics of repurposing EV batteries into stationary units.
The noise of battery energy storage system (BESS) technology has “exploded” as a concern in the last six months, an executive from system integrator Wartsila ES&O said.
