Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) will play an integral role in enabling both the transition to renewables and the long-term sustainability of our energy grid. Therefore, relentless focus is needed towards cost-optimizing the design, deployment, management, and maintenance of these systems to support such scalability. In this webinar we will explore some of the data and communication challenges to be solved in this process.

In this webinar, learn how, through more sophisticated energy market participation, flexible assets like battery energy storage systems can earn more revenue and achieve greater performance visibility enabling them to exceed investment returns and support the UK and Ireland’s journey to net zero.

One of the main standards adopted for stationary energy storage systems (ESS) is UL 1973. This critical standard for manufacturers has recently been updated to its 3rd edition. The scope of the standard encompasses cells, battery modules, battery packs/racks and battery management systems. Understanding these updates is vital for manufacturers as they plan milestones and time-to-market for their products. This session discussed updates to the standard; considering key requirements that have been updated or modified, which energy storage manufacturers need to be aware of and understand. We will also briefly addressed the various functional requirements in the standard covering safety critical controls.

With the recent launch of the “Guidelines for Procurement and Utilisation of Battery Energy Storage Systems” by the Ministry of Power and the launch of multiple large-scale storage tenders, India is on the verge of becoming a major global hub for energy storage. The Indian government is putting strong efforts into developing the energy storage sector, recognising its vital role in supporting the country’s transition to greener electricity. This webinar provided insights into India’s current and future business models for energy storage and the exciting opportunities the sector presents.

In this webinar with HMS Networks, we will learn about technologies and methods to bring these different elements together safely to ensure device protection at every step and intelligently connect battery energy storage systems to the grid.

Data management and digitalisation enable the successful operation of large battery energy storage systems (ESS), from existing use cases to future applications. In times of uncertain and quickly changing market conditions, these technologies and the benefits they can provide to ESS operators have become essential. In this webinar, experts from Saft and TotalEnergies Renewables discussed the growing role of digitalisation in energy storage operation.

The Greek Minister of Environment and Energy recently announced a 700 MW tender for energy storage, to be issued in the autumn with a procurement of €200 million (US$235 million) in subsidies. In addition, through its Recovery and Resilience Plan, majority-funded by the EU, Greece plans on investing more than €450 million for the installation of 1,380 MW of energy storage (including pumped hydro storage) by 2030. Greece seems to be bound to represent a key storage market in the next 10 years. In this webinar, Clean Horizon provided an overall picture of the energy storage market in Greece, highlighted the rising opportunities for investors, and more.

This webinar explored the role of battery storage and renewable energy in the UK’s drive to net zero, the impact they will have on infrastructure and how to maximise asset revenues to meet rapidly-changing electricity market opportunities.

The global battery market is one of the fastest growing, and most exciting, sectors in the energy transition, affecting consumer trends towards electric vehicles and the integration of renewable generation using stationary storage. Prices have consistently fallen as deployment rises, but the market faces a lack of transparency over drivers and where costs are headed. This webinar discussed the current state of the industry, and the challenges players are facing in the short and long term.

In this webinar, Honeywell experts discussed how the company has brought some technology solutions and service contracting options to the markets of the APAC region that can help developers, investors, owners and operators of energy storage assets to de-risk their projects and find financing. Honeywell’s technology allows energy producers to reduce their LCOE, microgrid and energy storage owners to optimise their operations, and commercial and industrial (C&I) clients to achieve their corporate sustainability goals.
