A recent fire event at a large-scale battery storage project owned by California utility San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) was dealt with effectively and in an exemplary manner.
A coalition of battery storage developers, including Zenobē, Eelpower, Harmony Energy and Field, has penned a letter to the UK government and National Grid Electricity System Operator (National Grid ESO).
Developer LC energy has won an irrevocable permit for a 500MW/2,000MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in the Netherlands, one of the largest in the country to do so.
Georgia Power has secured a battery and equipment supply agreement (BESA) with Tesla for a 500MW/2,000MWh BESS portfolio made up of four projects of varying sizes under development by the investor-owned utility (IOU).
Augmentation and end-of-life disposal look set to grow in significance in the next few years in the US, with nearly 1.5GW/3GWh of BESS projects now four years old or more.
The North American arm of Sweden’s Eolus Vind has secured financing and advanced the sales process for its 100MW/400MWh Pome standalone BESS facility located in San Diego County, California.
