We catch up with the president of Canada-headquartered Hydrostor, Jon Norman, about the firm’s advanced compressed air energy storage (A-CAES) tech, current projects, future plans and being a developer versus system integrator.
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.
Multinational utility and IPP RWE has completed three co-located battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in the US, totalling 190MW/360MWh, with another 2GWh-plus under construction.
Equis Australia and the State Electricity Commission have secured AU$400 million in financing for their Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub (MREH) battery storage project.
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.
After coming down last year, the cost of containerised BESS solutions for US-based buyers will come down a further 18% in 2024, Clean Energy Associates (CEA) said.
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.
A large-scale battery storage facility providing ancillary services to the grid has gone into commercial operation at the site of a hydroelectric power plant in the Philippines.
