Horizon Power, an electricity supplier owned by the state government of Western Australia has begun commissioning community battery storage to allow nine remote towns to use more rooftop solar power.
Battery capacity has started to come online at what is claimed to be the world’s largest project to combine solar PV and battery storage at the same site, in California.
Two pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) projects at very different stages of development in Hawaii and Wyoming would enable hundreds of additional megawatt-hours of clean energy use in each region.
Sunamp, a Scotland-headquartered manufacturer of a thermal energy storage technology, has just signed an agreement with a distributor to target nearly US$70 million of sales in China and open a factory in the Asian country.
A 1,200 hectare site in South Australia has been secured by a developer hoping to use it to build a 300MW solar power site with 3.6GWh of energy storage, based on a novel technology solution.
Energy storage technologies have largely been ignored in discussions at and around COP26 climate talks. That’s not good enough, argues Amit Gudka of Field.
A new CEO-led organisation representing a broad range of long-duration energy storage technologies and their role in achieving global energy system decarbonisation has launched today.
