While everyone agrees the capacity market (CM) is the foundation of the business case for BESS in Poland, that might not always be the case, one developer suggested.

BESS developer and operator Dais Energy will reach ready-to-build (RTB) status on 190MW of a 250MW Denmark project portfolio in the coming months, CEO Daniel Connor told Energy-Storage.news.

Finding developers who want long-term partnerships on projects is key when entering multiple different markets, the head of shipping and energy infrastructure firm BW Group’s energy storage development and operation arm says.

The panel – Where are the Commercial Opportunities for Co-Location? – was almost full to capacity on the afternoon of the first day of the Summit.

In June, Japanese renewable energy developer Pacifico Energy made the first trades from BESS assets in the country’s power markets.

The success in a recent capacity market auction of large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in Belgium is a sign of the European country’s energy storage market maturing, Energy-Storage.news has heard. 

An increase of 20GWh of battery storage could reduce the amount of wasted wind power in Great Britain by 50%, according to new analysis from consultancy LCP.

With many climate protection advocates as well as the industry itself calling on Europe’s lawmakers to recognise the importance of energy storage, a “significant slowdown” in 2019 is expected to be countered with a more positive outlook going forwards.

The software platform now incorporates data from a SolarEdge inverter, meaning clients can run residential storage dispatch simulations and work out the optimum schedule for operations.

A salmon farm in Norway will become more environmentally friendly with the addition of a Tesvolt-supplied battery energy storage system, reducing the run time of diesel generators onsite by up to 18 hours a day, saving on costs and working time spent on maintenance.
