The power generation arm of Manila Electric Company (Meralco) is developing its second large-scale battery storage project.

Renewable energy developer Ampyr Australia has signed what it claims is an Australian “first-of-a-kind” Aboriginal community equity partnership and participation model for the Wellington Stage 1 battery energy storage system (BESS).

Argentina has received more than 1.3GW of energy storage applications for its first battery energy storage system (BESS) tender.

Community engagement is an important part of battery energy storage system (BESS) project development. Not engaging with a community or even engaging minimally can stop a project dead in its tracks, delaying development.

Chinese lithium-ion OEM Gotion High-Tech has launched manufacturing of its 5MWh BESS units at its manufacturing facility in Göttingen, Germany.

Officials in Harvey County, Kansas, US, are the latest to instate a temporary ban on BESS facilities destined for unincorporated areas of their jurisdiction.

Aboitiz Power has kicked off a 30MW hybrid battery energy storage system (BESS) project in the Philippines.

The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) has made grid-forming BESS a priority for the National Electricity Market (NEM) and South West Interconnected System (SWIS) for 2026.

Acciona Energía has submitted plans for a wind-plus-storage site featuring up to 800MWh of BESS to Australia’s EPBC Act.

As the US looks to establish reliable battery supply chains, TerraFlow Energy and ESS Tech look beyond lithium-ion for long-duration energy storage solutions.
