State-owned Irish electric utility ESB has opened a 19MW/38MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Aghada, County Cork, provided by system integrator Fluence.
European battery energy storage deployments are expected to plateau over 2024-27 due to lithium-ion scarcity whilst the continent will need 200GW by 2030 to accommodate additional renewables, according to a new report and webinar.
With a handful of leading regions deploying grid-scale storage at a faster rate than ever, what sort of impact are these additions having so far on the problems they are intended to solve?
London-listed energy storage investor Gore Street Capital CEO Alex O’Cinneide discussed its fund’s recent expansion outside UK/Ireland and which markets are most of interest, in an interview with Energy-storage.news.
