Carrie Xiao reports back from this year’s edition of SNEC in Shanghai, China, the world’s biggest solar and energy storage expo.

Ford Motor Company has officially launched its energy storage subsidiary, which the US automaker first announced late last year.

BYD has presented its latest grid-scale BESS product, pushing energy density even further to its limits, while Eve and Sunwoda have progressed commercialisation of high capacity battery cells.

Tesla could be “hedging its bets” on battery cell supply, if a deal announced by LG Energy Solution really is with the US EV and BESS company.

Carrie Xiao’s exclusive reporting from SNEC 2025 continues with the latest in modular battery storage system design and approaches to fire safety.

ESN Premium’s two-part interview with the CEO of LG Energy Solution Vertech continues, covering topics such as US customer demand and the Moss Landing fire.

ESN Premium’s canvassing of election views from North America’s biggest clean energy trade event concludes.

The benefits of advances in cell technology, which improve the performance and lifetime of battery storage systems, can be directly passed onto customers.

Being able to create a single contract for project delivery is perhaps the biggest advantage of vertically integrating battery energy storage system (BESS) manufacturing with system integration, according to the CEO of LG Energy Solution (LG ES) Vertech.

US-headquartered battery storage system integrator Powin Energy has signed a 12GWh cell supply agreement with Chinese battery maker REPT Battero.
