Independent power producer Low Carbon has signed optimisation agreements with Habitat Energy, Flexitricity, and EDF across four battery energy storage systems (BESS) with a capacity of 95MW.
The amount invested in energy storage soared globally during 2023, while battery manufacturing will require the biggest share of spending among clean energy technologies by 2030 to achieve net zero.
Energy density is becoming a key tool in optimising the economics of battery energy storage projects as suitable sites become harder to find. Ben Echeverria and Josh Tucker from engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firm Burns & McDonnell explore some of the considerations of designing projects on constrained land.
The energy regulator in France has ordered a reopening of a postponed auction for secondary reserve/aFRR services, citing an increase in the number of BESS certified to provide it.
The Canadian province of Ontario should put around 6GW of long-duration energy storage (LDES) on its grid by 2032 to cost-effectively meet demand and stay on track to hit net zero targets.
Global demand for batteries for energy storage system (ESS) applications will grow 30% during this year, with the US leading the charge, LG Energy Solution has predicted.
Eesti Energi has completed the procurement for its 26.5MW/51MWh BESS, the first of that scale in Estonia, with LG Energy Solution among the successful parties.
IPP Neoen has started construction on a 2-hour 56.4MW/112.9MWh BESS in Finland, in the context of market dynamics which optimiser Capalo AI explained to Energy-Storage.news.
Energy-Storage.news is proud to present our sponsored webinar with GridBeyond, where we discuss risk and reward in the battery storage sector with a particular focus on the UK market.
