Renewable energy developer Gurin Energy has appointed Saft as the technology provider to a gigawatt-hour-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) in Japan.

Genesis Energy has started constructing a 100MW/200MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) on New Zealand’s North Island.

Oil and gas major TotalEnergies has taken a final investment decision (FID) and started construction on a further six BESS projects in Germany, with Saft to provide the battery technology.

Oil and gas major TotalEnergies has commissioned and started operations on two solar-plus-storage projects in the ERCOT, Texas market, one with the BESS online and another set to be commissioned next year.

Saft, a subsidiary of French energy giant TotalEnergies, will provide Genesis Energy in New Zealand with a 100MW/200MWh utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS).

Battery energy storage system (BESS) integrators Fluence and Saft have launched US domestic manufacturing, of modules and BESS containers respectively.

Oil and gas major TotalEnergies will build a 100MW/200MWh BESS project from Kyon Energy’s pipeline, its first project after buying the developer.

We hear from industry sources about the reasons for, and implications of, the increasing convergence to the 20-foot, 5MWh+ container as the dominant grid-scale BESS product today.

Oil and gas major TotalEnergies has put a 380MW solar PV, 255MWh battery storage project into commercial operation in the ERCOT, Texas market.

Four battery energy storage system (BESS) units at a Microsoft data centre in Sweden from Saft have entered operation, while ABB has added ZincFive as a technology supplier for its own UPS solutions.
