A new study from Stanford says that sodium-ion batteries will need more breakthroughs in order to compete with lithium-ion (Li-ion).

Energy storage deployments globally increased by over half in 2024, with the grid-scale segment the driver of this, market intelligence firm Rho Motion’s head of research writes in this contributed article.

Neoen has initiated the permitting process for a 400MW/1,600MWh BESS located in Ontario that was awarded a 20-year capacity contract by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO).

Rho Motion’s head of research Iola Hughes analyses some of the trends shaping the battery storage supply chain as market growth accelerates worldwide.

Utility Eneco will optimise a BESS project in the Netherlands that, at 31.6MW/126.4MWh, will be the country’s largest when it comes online before the end of the year.

Ofgem, the UK’s energy market regulator, is considering raising the minimum duration of technologies eligible for a long-duration energy storage (LDES) support scheme.

NextEra Energy Resources (NEER) has commenced the state permitting process for two hybrid solar and storage projects with a cumulative battery capacity of 250MW in Wisconsin, US.

In this installment of our Year in Review series, we hear from developer and independent power producers (IPPs) Econergy and Ingrid Capacity, both active in the European market.

Grenergy has raised financing for the fourth phase of a solar-plus-storage project in Chile set to feature 11GWh of battery storage capacity when completed.

Valentin Lorscheid and Dr. Kai-Philipp Kairies of ACCURE Battery Intelligence propose ways in which BESS warranties can be reformed as the industry matures.
