The value of developers and optimisers in the BESS lifecycle, thinking about long-term risk and KPIs for maximising the asset have been key themes at the Battery Asset Management Summit UK & Ireland 2025.
BESS asset management in the UK has moved beyond the rudimentary ‘project delivery and basic O&M’ approach, a speaker at the upcoming Battery Asset Management Summit UK & Ireland explained in a Q&A.
BESS technology continues to advance, but the energy industry needs to change its thinking about O&M to capture the full potential, writes Jeremy Williams of IHI Power Services.
Roman Bykadorov of Lemberg Solutions writes that active cell balancing can help mitigate battery management and lifecycle issues, but its application requires complex consideration.
The development of global standards and specifications for the electrolyte used in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) is “crucial” for the technology’s prospects.
With the price of BESS continuing to fall, there is an ongoing discussion in the industry around the limitations of manufacturer warranties and how analytics can unlock untapped revenues.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has published information and recommendations for battery management systems (BMS) in stationary energy storage applications.
