This Friday Briefing wants to know where the people who translate clean energy ambition into reality will be coming from, and the UK BESS industry sails on.
A recent report from the Clean Energy Associates found that system-level defects accounted for nearly half of all defects found in battery energy storage systems (BESS), of which two issues related to increased risk of fire.
The way we think about battery storage tech is evolving as quickly as the industry is, writes Dr. Matthias Simolka, product manager at battery data analytics provider TWAICE.
Global battery energy storage system (BESS) integrator Fluence saw a record order intake of US$1.1 billion in the first quarter of its 2024 financial year, but slipped back into a net loss, possibly reflecting seasonality.
While more energy-dense BESS units mean packing more into smaller footprints, they may have additional implications for noise and fire safety, a developer source told Energy-Storage.news.
