Battery storage system integrator FlexGen and battery manufacturer Hithium could be supplying each other with complementary technologies for large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) projects.
The versatility of battery storage to provide a broad range of services makes them “particularly valuable” to virtual power plants (VPPs), according to a senior advisor to the US Department of Energy (DOE).
Edify Energy has closed financing on a battery storage project which will support the hosting of solar and wind at a government-designated Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) in Victoria, Australia.
Successful optimisation of batteries co-located with wind is complex but could help “unlock a blueprint” for managing assets at portfolio level, the chief executive of UK software company Arenko has said.
Hitachi Energy has acquired Spanish power electronics and energy management system manufacturer Eks Energy (EKS) from battery storage system integrator Powin.
