As with previous years, our year in review wrap up of 2023 includes interviews with a handful of industry players from around the sector.

Energy storage systems (ESS) will become India’s most invested-in clean energy asset class during this decade, but it’s likely to be pumped hydro, not lithium-ion batteries, that see the most deployments.

Developer Gurin Energy is so convinced of Japan’s energy storage market potential that it is planning a single project equivalent to the country’s entire installed base of lithium-ion battery storage.

Energy-Storage.news and PV Tech proudly present our second sponsored webinar with Fluence, on how asset operators should prepare for and respond to changing energy market rules.

Akaysha Energy took Final Investment Decision (FID) on Queensland BESS, while another of its projects has achieved key grid code compliance.

It is a “certainty” that all grid-connected energy storage systems will require upgrades to their software, although the reasons for upgrades will be varied, Energy-Storage.news has heard.

Singapore-headquartered Gurin Energy has revealed plans for a 500MW, 4-hour duration (2,000MWh) battery storage project in Japan.

Three utility-scale long-duration energy storage (LDES) projects have been selected for contract awards in a tender held on behalf of the state of New South Wales, Australia.

The US energy storage industry’s upward growth trajectory has seen another record-breaking quarter, with 2,354MW and 7,322MWh of deployments in Q3 2023, according to Wood Mackenzie.

Energy storage system integrators are critical to the successful delivery and commissioning of a battery energy storage system (BESS) project, but they are perhaps also best-placed to service the asset once its in operation, argues Ray Saka of IHI Terrasun.
