A 1,200 hectare site in South Australia has been secured by a developer hoping to use it to build a 300MW solar power site with 3.6GWh of energy storage, based on a novel technology solution.
The government of Alberta, Canada, has announced that CA$25 million (US$20.1 million) in financial support has been offered for solar-plus-storage and pumped hydro energy storage as part of a CA$176 million package that will also give funding to oil and gas industry projects.
Energy storage technologies have largely been ignored in discussions at and around COP26 climate talks. That’s not good enough, argues Amit Gudka of Field.
A community engagement event was hosted last week for a solar-plus-storage project under construction in Denton County, Texas, pairing 275MW of solar PV with 125MW of battery energy storage.
ENGIE will no longer proceed with a grid-scale solar-plus-storage project it was awarded in Hawaii, cancelling its order for 240MWh of battery storage from technology provider New HOrizons Ahead (NHOA).
as been awarded a tender of public lands in Chile to host a wind power project and Total Eren is developing a 1GW wind power project in Kazakhstan: both would be paired with large-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) of up to 1GWh capacity each.
Construction of the first phase of what has been described as California’s biggest hybrid renewables-plus-storage project got underway earlier this month.
