Hyme Energy has inaugurated a molten hydroxide salt energy storage project in Denmark, the first such deployment in the world, it claimed.

Developer Better Energy is deploying its first battery energy storage system (BESS), a 10MW/12MWh system, at one of its solar PV plants in Denmark.

We catch up John Diklev, founder and CEO of Sweden-based optimisation and virtual power plant (VPP) software company Flower, to discuss the Swedish market and beyond and his notion of ‘long-term optimisation’.

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the Nordics are seeing “extremely attractive revenues”, Finland-based optimiser Capalo AI said, as developers SENS and Ilmatar announced 70MW of projects in Sweden.

Thermal energy storage companies Kyoto Group and Brenmiller have inaugurated and won funding approval for projects in Denmark and Israel, respectively.

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) firm Nuvve will use its platform to manage 40MW of EV chargers and battery storage capacity in frequency regulation markets in Norway and Denmark.

Hyme Energy will deploy a 20-hour hydroxide molten salt-based thermal energy storage system in Rønne, Denmark, for 2024 while Azelio has just completed the installation of a unit in Dubai, UAE.

A new joint venture between a UK-based asset manager and a Danish renewables investor has been signed to fund a 500MW solar and storage pipeline in the UK.

Denmark-headquartered firm Ørsted, formerly DONG Energy, has started building its first large-scale solar-plus-storage project, located in Andrews County, Texas, alongside existing oil and gas installations.

Ørsted understood to have invested low double-digit million dollar figure to purchase HelioSage, subsidiary of Panasonic-owned Coronal.
