The first phase of a residential battery storage program in the US state of New Hampshire has met all its conditions and saved the utility “more than expected” after an initial 100 units were deployed.
Some 1.9GW of grid-scale battery energy storage was deployed across Europe last year, of which nearly 85% was in UK, Ireland, Germany and France according to research and consultancy LCP Delta.
Battery storage projects at least 1GWh of capacity have been proposed or progressed in Australia by companies Synergy, SkyLab and the Queensland government.
The Chile arm of global energy firm AES Corporation is looking to build another large co-located battery energy storage system (BESS), this time with a capacity of 2,710MWh.
Norwegian firms Morrow Batteries and Eldrift have announced a non-binding offtake agreement for 1.5GWh of Morrow’s lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries.
