Samsung C&T’s Australian renewables arm has referred an 800MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Victoria’s Gippsland region to the federal government under Australia’s Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are increasingly being positioned as essential infrastructure investments rather than purely financial assets, as seen in a series of strategic partnerships announced in late September that integrate storage with broader energy and digital infrastructure strategies.
Samsung C&T Renewable Energy Australia is seeking federal approval for a 200MW battery energy storage system (BESS) project located near Townsville, Queensland.
Chinese battery manufacturer Hithium and Samsung C&T Engineering & Construction (Samsung C&T) have penned a new agreement targeting around 10GWh of battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity globally.
The Edwards & Sanborn solar-plus-storage project in California is now fully online, with 875MWdc of solar PV and 3,287MWh of battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity, the world’s largest.
In mid-July, the 100MW / 100MWh Minety battery energy storage system (BESS) was completed in Wiltshire, southern England. Something of a landmark project for the UK and Europe’s battery storage industries, here’s what’s happened so far, as reported by our sister sites Current± and Solar Power Portal.
Financing has been secured for two projects that will add nearly a gigawatt-hour of battery storage at California solar power facilities this year, by renewable energy company Terra-Gen and private asset management firm Capital Dynamics.
