Chinese solar PV inverter and energy storage provider Sungrow has deployed two C&I community batteries, marking the first in South Australia to undergo Common Smart Inverter Profile for Australia (CSIP-AUS) testing.

Swift Current Energy has secured US$242 million for what the developer claimed will be the biggest BESS project in the PJM service area.

Hithium has shipped the first battery energy storage systems (BESS) manufactured at its new plant in Texas, US.

European Commission funding is supporting a project to integrate battery storage at a pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) plant in Slovakia.

Hithium will supply two projects in Saudi Arabia with ‘the world’s first mass-produced kiloampere-hour (kAh) cells’.

“Battery energy storage systems (BESS) typically change ownership between two and four times during their 40-year lifecycle,” John Sheehy, CEO of Pottinger, said on day two of the Battery Asset Management Summit Australia 2025 this morning.

Three companies, Energy Vault, Richardson Electronics, and Fluence, have made strategic moves to create a secure BESS equipment supply chain.

Now is the moment for long-duration energy storage to become a key pillar of the energy transition, writes LDES Council CEO Julia Souder.

Hithium has partnered with The Imperial Electric Company to deliver 1GWh of energy storage across Pakistan’s residential and C&I sectors.
