In an interview with Energy-Storage.news Premium, Jay Jayasuriya, Principal at Sendero Consulting, argues that AI data centres are “convenient scapegoats” for grid failures

Energy storage developer and system integrator Energy Vault and sodium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) startup Peak Energy have announced a 1.5GWh strategic development agreement.

Energy storage is expected to play a significant role in enabling the global data centre build-out, although the commercial and financing models developers will use are evolving, Energy-Storage.news has learned.

Estonia-headquartered high-power energy storage startup Skeleton Technologies officially opened two European production plants in November.

The development of data centres has emerged as a possible lifeline for ongoing projects in the battery energy storage system (BESS) industry.

We hear from the co-founder and CEO of optimiser Suena Energy Dr. Lennard Wilkening about the evolution of BESS asset management in Europe, including the impact of artificial intelligence (AI).

ESN Premium speaks with Fluence’s Matt Grover about the need for sophisticated software solutions to enhance battery trading.

Microsoft, Sunrock, Zurich, and AlphaStruxure are among 20 participants joining Schneider Electric to deploy community-based energy systems across the US, supporting public and private sector organisations with “innovative solutions” and financing.

Andrés Barberán, energy storage product manager at Fluence, emphasises that optimising battery energy storage system (BESS) performance means making decisions with the entire asset lifecycle in mind, not just immediate returns.

Three companies, Pacifico Energy, Zenith Volts, and Fermi America have begun expanding power generation and energy storage capabilities for US data centre development.
