Podcast: The Energy Center from ESS Inc. in Oregon is an iron flow storage system offering 1.16 MWh of capacity and 174 kW of maximum charging power. Housed in a single container, the modular unit is designed for a range of commercial and grid applications. Alan Greenshields, Director EMEA at ESS, discusses long-duration storage and the role of redox flow technology using sustainable materials such as iron, salt and water.

CEO Talk: The European energy storage market is growing dynamically, and so are the demands on profitability, safety and system integration. We find out how Ampace is positioning itself in this environment, the role Europe plays for the company, and which advances and technologies are set to shape the market next.

Banks are stepping up warnings to solar operators as loans fall into arrears, with output restrictions and falling power prices squeezing project income and pushing some towards default.
