Netherlands-based Alfen is deploying a two-hour-plus battery energy storage system (BESS) for Centrica Business Solutions in Belgium, the latter’s first outside the UK.

UK Infrastructure Bank plans to invest up to £265 million (US$331.45 million) in energy storage development in the UK, in partnership with British Gas owner Centrica Plc.

Centrica Business Solutions will convert a decommissioned gas-fired power station in England into a 100MWh battery storage facility.

Centrica Business Solutions has acquired a 30MW battery energy storage project which will help manage North Sea offshore wind farms.

In what seems likely to be the first of many such projects for New York City, an electric vehicle (EV) charging hub is going to be equipped with a 5MW / 15MWh battery energy storage system.

Centrica and sonnen have completed a virtual power plant (VPP) project in the south of England, which will allow customers to maximise the potential of their solar panels while providing flexibility to the grid.

Centrica, one of the UK’s largest energy companies, is celebrating a “major breakthrough” as its flexibility trading platform goes live.

Energy supplier Centrica has unveiled its new electric vehicle offering, targeted at helping businesses across the globe navigate the EV transition, with solar and battery storage expected to play a major role.

Firm spies potential for more than 4.5GW of flexible power capacity in the UK alone and a home energy management industry which it expects to be worth more than US£2 billion (US$2.58 billion) a year by 2025.
