Manufacturing delays have led Fluence to adjust its fiscal year 2026 guidance, even as the company has logged record quarterly orders and a US$6.4 billion backlog.
We sat down with Lars Stephan, EMEA director of marketing, policy and public affairs for system integrator Fluence, to discuss energy storage, data centres and cybersecurity at Intersolar last month.
Rolls-Royce and Fluence have secured BESS orders in Latvia and Poland, respectively, while CATL has partnered with Merus Power for 3GWh of deployments across Northern Europe.
Germany’s energy system regulator has confirmed that BESS projects coming online by 4 August 2029 will be exempt from charging and discharging grid fees, opening up investment again after months of uncertainty.
