China’s biggest energy storage companies were out in force at a recent trade expo in Beijing, with integrated offerings, bigger battery cells, data centre solutions and sodium-ion products among the new products and tech on show.
Ex-Fluence alumnus Marek Kubik sat down with Energy-Storage.news at last month’s Energy Storage Summit 2026 in London to talk big picture BESS technology trends, including energy density, LDES and sodium-ion.
We hear from Netherlands-based ‘distributed hybridisation’ sodium-ion BESS startup Moonwatt, as it announces its first project 18 months after being founded and around a year after executives introduced its tech and strategy to Energy-Storage.news.
US sodium-ion (Na-ion) battery technology company Unigrid has begun international shipments of its proprietary sodium cobalt oxide (NCO) cathode cells at commercial volume.
The global energy storage market is poised for continued expansion in 2026, even as supply chain constraints, regulatory evolution, and emerging applications reshape the landscape, according to Wood Mackenzie.
With the global AI data centre boom already here and growing rapidly, HiTHIUM brings products and strategies to help solve its significant energy challenges.
A total of around 4.9GW/14GWh of grid-scale BESS entered commercial operations around the world last month, a 29% fall year-on-year owing to an unusually slow month in China.
