Malaysia’s minister of works has inaugurated the country’s first battery energy storage system linked to an electric vehicle charging station

Electric power distribution company WEL Networks and developer Infratec have launched their grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) in New Zealand.

A 110MW/440MWh battery storage project in New York has been given the green light by regulators, ahead of the launch of tenders which could create a significant market opportunity in the state.

US independent power producer Clearway Energy has started commercial operations at its Daggett solar-plus-storage facility, which includes 482MW of solar capacity and 280MW of battery storage.

The energy storage subsidiary of Croatia-headquartered electric vehicle (EV) company Rimac has officially launched its modular battery energy storage system (BESS) product.

BESS with up to 4-hour duration helping to meet summer peaks, but long-duration energy storage may be key to managing winter demand.

Putting battery storage systems onto vessels off the coast of Singapore could be a way to mitigate the lack of suitable sites on land.

A US$10.5 billion programme to “strengthen grid resilience and reliability” across the US includes funding for microgrids and other projects that will integrate battery storage technologies.

Enervenue, the US company commercialising technology adapted from nickel-hydrogen batteries used in space exploration, has signed a three-year Master Supply Agreement (MSA) with a customer in Brazil.

Cumulative energy storage installations will go beyond the terawatt-hour mark globally before 2030 excluding pumped hydro, with lithium-ion batteries providing most of that capacity, according to new forecasts.
