China has published a national plan to promote large-scale energy storage facilities, encouraging investment and broader participation in the electricity market.

Chinese PV module manufacturer Trina Solar has received the green light from the Victoria government in Australia to build a 500MW/1,000MWh battery energy storage system (BESS).

Chinese energy storage companies active in the US face an uncertain future as federal policies encourage moves to reduce their supply chain involvement.

China again dominated global battery storage deployments in August, accounting for two-thirds of what came online, but Europe, North America and Oceania/Australia had good months too.

The US energy storage industry is becoming better equipped to handle the policy uncertainty which has characterised the year so far, Energy-Storage.news has heard.

Chinese solar PV inverter and energy storage provider Sungrow has announced two major developments: plans for a Hong Kong IPO and the release of its half-year 2025 interim report.

China continued to drive global grid-scale BESS commissioning activity in July, as the technology approaches the global installed gigawatt (GW) capacity of pumped hydro.

A product launch at this year’s EESA Energy Storage Exhibition in China drew attention, discussion and even disbelief, reports Carrie Xiao.

Energy storage system safety is being taken to new levels, as evidenced by the fire testing efforts of Chinese market players, writes Carrie Xiao.

CATL, the world’s biggest lithium-ion OEM, saw flat ESS revenues in the first half of the year, but the extent to which this can be blamed on the increased US-China tariffs, if at all, is far from clear.
