Japan Energy Challenge: An invitation to innovators

British renewable energy investment company Thrive Renewables is offering Bristol Energy Co-operative up to 20% investment in its new 20MW/30MWh battery energy storage project, in a first for co-ownership.

A total of 16GW was added last year, equivalent to a 68% of year-on-year growth.

The New York Public Service Commission has given utilities until the end of 2028 to put in place large-scale energy storage resources, extending a previous 2025 deadline.

The second high-profile battery storage failure due to a faulty sprinkler system could mark the beginnings of exclusions from insurance policies if certain providers develop a negative track record, a source said.
