IPP DTEK Group and system integrator Fluence have together put a 200MW/400MWh BESS portfolio in Ukraine into commercial operation, a milestone praised by the country’s energy minister Svitlana Grinchuk.

Fidra Energy has secured £1 billion for the largest BESS in the UK, while EDF and Elements Green have agreed a toll for a 720MWh system.

Major BESS route-to-market (RTM) deals have been announced in Poland, by Greenvolt and Entrix, and in Italy, by Zelestra and BKW.

Emerging tech must prove it can outcompete the incumbent, writes Sightline Climate analyst Lukas Karapin-Springorum, outlining the state of play in LDES technology today.

Chinese lithium-ion OEM Hithium and system integrator BOS Power have signed a supply agreement for 3GWh of BESS deployments in the Nordic region.

Last summer, a Texas energy storage operator watched in frustration as their battery system missed a golden trading opportunity during a peak demand window.

The UK had one of its best months of the year for large-scale BESS projects being completed in August.

The sale of the UK BESS-holding Harmony Energy Income Trust (HEIT) proved private capital’s greater patience and valuation around the asset class, the CEO of its former investment advisor told Energy-Storage.news.

The market share of vertically integrated battery cell and BESS companies has fallen since 2023, market intelligence firm Rho Motion said.

Katherine Hutton, product manager of cybersecurity at Fluence, discusses why cybersecurity is critical for battery storage systems and how to navigate this increasingly complex area.
