Malaysian manufacturing firm Leader Energy has tied up with BASF Stationary Energy Storage to develop long-duration energy storage projects in southeast Asia using the sodium-sulfur battery technology of NGK.

Projects using novel, non-lithium battery technology have been progressed by organic flow battery firm CMBlu, liquid metal battery firm Ambri, and the NAS battery division of NGK Insulators.

A megawatt-scale sodium-sulfur (NAS) battery demonstration project involving South Korea’s largest electric utility has gone online.

Invinity and BASF have announced the first deployments of their non-lithium battery storage tech in Hungary and Australia respectively.

Ground operations for the aviation and space exploration sectors will be powered with the help of non-lithium battery technologies in Netherlands and Japan.

A large-scale sodium-sulfur (NAS) battery energy storage system made by NGK Insulators will be installed at a former LNG terminal in Japan.

Technologies from US V2G solutions company Nuvve and NGK’s sodium sulfur batteries will provide ancillary services and other grid stability applications in Japan. 

A long-duration energy storage system using NGK’s sodium-sulfur (NAS) batteries has been commissioned by a subsidiary of German chemicals company BASF, which seeks out high growth opportunity businesses to work with. 

Sodium sulfur (NAS) batteries produced by Japan’s NGK Insulators are being put into use on a massive scale in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates.

Schneider Electric and NGK Insulators have reached the conclusion of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) under which both companies will explore global opportunities to jointly market NGK’s NAS (R) battery and Schneider Electric’s inverter (Conext Core XC ES).
