To avoid pitfalls that harm BESS investments, developers must sign well-structured contracts, writes Intertek CEA’s Yilin Huang.

Liam Critchley examines the modelling, safety standards and analytics that aim to mitigate the risk of thermal runaway in lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS).

BESS performance guarantees are essential and ubiquitous, yet can be challenging to navigate, writes Intertek CEA senior energy storage engineer Yilin Huang.

Liam Critchley examines a selection of third-party technologies for preventing thermal runaway events in battery storage systems.

We hear from Clean Horizon about the consultancy’s European battery storage revenue index being added to Nord Pool’s Data Portal.

Informa Markets is launching the inaugural Battery Asset Management Summit, Canada (BAM Canada).

Quebec-based IPP Boralex and Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation (SNGRDC) have commissioned the 300MW/1,200MWh Hagersville Battery Energy Storage Park in Haldimand County, Ontario, CA.

The Battery Asset Management Summit Europe earlier this month brought together operators, optimisers, software and hardware suppliers and more to discuss the big topics in BESS risk management, operation, commercialisation and optimisation. Read on for a summary of the key talking points.

We caught up with developer and IPP Greenvolt Power’s head of storage Antonio Montoto Rojo about the recent MACSE auction in Italy, where it won a contract for a 75MW BESS.

There is a “healthy pipeline of projects in development” across Europe’s energy storage sector, but the technologies are as yet “significantly underutilised” below their potential.
