Italy-headquartered solar inverter manufacturer FIMER supplied 1MVA inverters to a solar-plus-storage project with a 18MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Gujarat, India.
It’s been a positive week for thermal energy storage technology, with utility Edison International validating a cold storage solution, a collaboration between two groups to achieve 100% round trip efficiency, and an acquisition involving several intellectual property rights patents.
Energy group Enel has started operating a 4MW/1.7MWh backup power storage system at a plant in Spain’s North African territory using 78 repurposed Nissan electric vehicle (EV) batteries.
