The way we think about battery storage tech is evolving as quickly as the industry is, writes Dr. Matthias Simolka, product manager at battery data analytics provider TWAICE.
Global battery energy storage system (BESS) integrator Fluence saw a record order intake of US$1.1 billion in the first quarter of its 2024 financial year, but slipped back into a net loss, possibly reflecting seasonality.
While more energy-dense BESS units mean packing more into smaller footprints, they may have additional implications for noise and fire safety, a developer source told Energy-Storage.news.
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.
