New energy storage projects co-located with renewables in Spain will be eligible to have 40-65% of their investment costs covered under a government scheme launching in a week’s time. The Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO) launched a call for aid (convocatoria de ayudas) for hybrid or co-located energy storage projects […]
Two weeks ago it was announced that Origis Energy, one of America’s largest solar and energy storage developers, had contracted Mitsubishi Power Americas to provide three utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) that would be co-located with three photovoltaic solar facilities in the Southeast United States. Why had Origis taken the step of acquiring the storage […]
The UK will have 50GW-plus of energy storage installed by 2050 in a best case scenario attainment of net zero, according to grid operator National Grid’s Future Energy Scenarios report. The report’s broader conclusions around the energy sector were covered in detail by Energy-Storage.news’ sister site Current yesterday. It is published by the National Grid ESO (electricity system operator) each […]
There is growing consensus from European Union policymakers and regulators that energy storage is vital to securing affordable and low carbon energy, but the technologies still face market challenges. As a relatively new and complex technology with a wide variety of different use cases open to it, battery-based energy storage isn’t yet being made the […]
Renewable energy developer ABO Wind has commissioned its first standalone battery energy storage system (BESS), in Kells, Northern Ireland. The Germany-based firm has commissioned the 50MW/25MWh BESS unit which it claimed is one of the fastest storage systems globally, with a response time of less than 150 milliseconds. It is also the largest BESS ABO […]
“In my opinion, the addition of battery energy storage coupled with solar can get renewable penetration to the next level,” said Ioannis Grammatikakis, UK country manager at Power Factors. Also recognised as co-location, the coupling of renewable generation sources, such as wind and solar, with battery energy storage systems (BESS) could be a crucial development […]
Climate tech wrapped a strong Q3, landing three of the top four equity deals, including the whopping $1 billion Series A raised by fleet charging startup TeraWatt. While the broader market might be cooling, climate tech continues to be a hot ticket, with investment figures for top deals in Q3 outpacing the two previous quarters this year. In total, […]
