Panellists discussed M&A in large-scale BESS on the ‘M&A Market: How Attractive Is BESS Right Now?’ panel discussion at the Energy Storage Summit 2026.
How to enable bankability for large-scale BESS projects was the main topic of the opening panel discussion at the Energy Storage Summit 2026 which kicked off today (24 February).
A flurry of BESS project news from big-name players in Western Europe in the run-up to the Energy Storage Summit next week, with Neoen, Statkraft, Zenobē and Infranode moving projects forward in Germany, Ireland, the UK and Denmark. Highlights include a 15-year toll between Drax and Zenobē, and multiple 4-hour duration systems.
We hear from Netherlands-based ‘distributed hybridisation’ sodium-ion BESS startup Moonwatt, as it announces its first project 18 months after being founded and around a year after executives introduced its tech and strategy to Energy-Storage.news.
The first monthly global grid-scale BESS deployment figures for 2026 are in from Rho Motion, showing a year-on-year fall and China continuing to account for the majority of activity.
Another roundup of European BESS news, but this time around portfolios, partnerships, investments, financing, optimisation and tolling in France, Spain, Belgium, Denmark, Finland and Romania. Notable highlights are Grenergy’s 10-year BESS toll in Spain and Ingrid Capacity entering the French market.
