Renewable energy project developer Margün Enerji is partnering with OEM Huawei to deploy a 2MW battery energy storage system (BESS) at a solar plant in Turkey.
Renewable energy independent power producer (IPP) Greenvolt is close to bringing a 5MW/5MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) online at its biomass plant in Coimbra, Portugal.
Switzerland-based institutional investment group SUSI Partners has entered a development deal for two large-scale solar-plus-storage hybrid power plants in Chile.
Sweden-based developer Sustainable Energy Solutions Sweden (SENS) has signed a long-term land lease for a 15MW PV, 50MW battery energy storage system (BESS) project.
Arizona Electric Power Cooperative (AEPCO) has received board approval to deploy a solar-plus-storage project with up to 940MWh of capacity, after two smaller co-operatives completed smaller co-located projects in the state.
Only half of the energy storage needed to properly integrate the potential solar PV additions globally by 2030 will be deployed based on current policies, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in its World Energy Outlook report for 2023.
Successful optimisation of batteries co-located with wind is complex but could help “unlock a blueprint” for managing assets at portfolio level, the chief executive of UK software company Arenko has said.
