A team of technical staff working for the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (IPUC) has given its recommendation to approve a request from Boise, ID-headquartered utility Idaho Power to develop a 150MW standalone BESS at its Boise Bench substation located in Ada County, Idaho. 

Augmentation and end-of-life disposal look set to grow in significance in the next few years in the US, with nearly 1.5GW/3GWh of BESS projects now four years old or more.

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

CATL, the world’s largest lithium-ion OEM, has given more details around its new battery energy storage system (BESS) product, Tener, including how it claims to have achieved no degradation in the first five years of operation.

One of the world’s most widely deployed non-lithium electrochemical energy storage technologies has received an upgrade, with the launch of NGK and BASF Stationary Energy Storage’s the NAS MODEL L24.

Market-ready artificial intelligence (AI) is a key feature of battery management to deliver sustainable revenues for a more competitive renewables market, writes Dr Adrien Bizeray of Brill Power.

DNV’s Jason Goodhand tells Energy-Storage.news Premium about the insights learned from testing dozens of cells for this year’s Battery Scorecard report.  

Natron Energy has started commercial-scale operations at its sodium-ion battery manufacturing plant in Michigan, US, and elaborated on how its technology compares to lithium-ion in answers provided to Energy-Storage.news.

The fifth edition of the DNV Battery Scorecard takes a deep dive into the performance and safety metrics of electric vehicle (EV) and energy storage system (ESS) battery cells.

Lithium-ion battery OEM CATL’s claim that its latest BESS product has no degradation for the first five years of use has provoked much discussion across the industry, with some sceptical of its merits.
