The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has published information and recommendations for battery management systems (BMS) in stationary energy storage applications.
Tesla and Sumitomo Electric have both been selected to supply energy storage projects in Japan. Tesla will supply Megapacks for a BESS project while Sumitomo will deploy a 12MWh vanadium flow battery.
The Board of Supervisors (BoS) of Orange County, California, has enacted an emergency moratorium on the approval of any new BESS facilities proposed for unincorporated areas of the county in order to protect the “health, safety and welfare” of its residents.
US president Donald Trump has brought in new tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico, which will hit batteries – the kind of move Samsung SDI said could benefit its Korea-based manufacturing.
A few weeks ago, a battery recycling deal was announced for a 640MWh BESS project in Australia, but the project isn’t even built yet and the cells have 25-year warranties – we caught up with the company recycling the batteries to hear more.
The IRS has released an amended cost breakdown of BESS to be used for calculating if a product qualifies for domestic content tax credit incentives, with an increase in US suppliers in the coming quarters.
LG Energy Solution is ‘proactively responding to market volatilities’ that have seen the South Korean battery manufacturer’s annual operating profits slide 73.4%.
Energy storage system integrator HyperStrong has concluded an IPO to list its shares on the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s STAR Market for science and technology innovation companies.
