Developer PureSky Energy has extended its Non-Binding Offer (NBO) deadline for a 794MW/1,588MWh portfolio of battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in Texas, US, to Friday, 24 January.

BESS price falls have pushed many marginal projects in merchant markets into a rate of return needed for investment, US developer Available Power told Energy-Storage.news amidst the sale process for its own 100MW/200MWh ERCOT project.

Gore Street Energy Storage Fund has awarded NEC Energy Solutions both EPC and long-term O&M contracts for 100MW of storage in Northern Ireland.
