Sigenergy and TH Energy have jointly compiled an overview of the current safety standards for battery storage systems. However, the new report also shows the path towards greater system safety.
Sodium-ion batteries have several advantages over conventional batteries. They contain no critical raw materials such as lithium or cobalt - and could make stationary energy storage and electromobility much more cost-effective. There is still a lack of the necessary energy storage materials for production.
At Solar Solutions in Amsterdam Solitek launches the NOVA battery system. This smart residential battery, crafted in Europe, is designed for stackability and comes with an energy storage capacity of up to 40 kilowatt hours.
The E-Spatz, the first German federal work vessel with pure electric drive has been awarded as “Inland Ship of the Year”.
Buildings are a major contributor to CO2 emissions. What are the energy trends in this sector? Kai Zimmermann, Head of Product Management Sales at Eaton, names them.
The four UK-based storage units will be integrated into existing solar parks. They will shift surplus electricity to times of low sunshine and provide additional grid services.
Aggreko, an industrial energy solutions provider, has been exploring the significance of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) as a component in advancing towards net zero. Thus they have gained insights into the benefits and challenges of BESS, and offer solutions for overcoming possible barriers.
Manufacturer Solaredge presents a new backup interface: In combination with the three-phase Home Hub inverter and the Home Battery 48 Volt, the new backup interface enables a full supply of backup power in the event of grid interruptions.
LG Energy Solution is presenting the Enblock E, a new home storage system. The high-voltage storage system can be expanded and is available in two configurations.
The Fusion Solar Residential Smart String ESS Luna 2000 S1 storage system is a modular home storage system that is also suitable for outdoor use. The system is classified according to protection class IP66.
In the past, most energy storage projects were clearly divided into on-grid systems – with the option to feed energy back into the grid and off-grid systems. Today there are however more and more examples, where the general power-demand or the supply for demand-peaks exceed the available grid power-supply.
A stationary storage unit based on sodium-sulphur battery chemistry has been built at the BASF site in Schwarzheide, north of Dresden. This makes Schwarzheide the first BASF plant worldwide to test an on-site photovoltaic park with such an Electricity storage units.
The expansion of storage capacities is an important part of the energy transition. In the future, storage units will take on various functions - and this will result in new business models for investors.
Energy group EnBW will always use battery storage in its solar parks in future. This means that electricity buffers will be a central component of the group's expansion strategy for solar energy in the future. Another advantage is that the power output of the plants can be better utilised.
The new solar carport by 1st Flow Energy Solutions includes a charging station with battery storage. A redox flow storage unit is used, which stores the green electricity in an electrolyte liquid.
With 44 megawatt hours and an output of 35 megawatts, the facility can supply 10,000 people for a day. With the storage unit, the operator Gazel Energie wants to facilitate the integration of renewables.
The global battery industry is set to grow from 550 gigawatt hours in 2022 to 7.78 terawatt hours in 2040, largely off the back of the passenger electric vehicle market’s rapid electrification in Europe, China and the US. Players will need to adapt to this challenge. How? Find out here:
The Paderborn-based storage manufacturer has integrated batteries with a total capacity of 1.2 megawatt hours into the new All Electric Society Park from Phoenix Contact. Among other things, it is intended to optimise self-consumption.
The lithium storage units of the Chinese manufacturer Voltsmile are now available at the online retailer Greenakku. They are available as storage units alone or modularly expandable with capacities from 2.4 to 61.5 kilowatt hours.
With the sonnen Pro Flexstack, the storage manufacturer sonnen presents for the first time a modular battery storage system that has been specially developed for commercial and industrial customers.
The project developer Goldbeck Solar is building a solar park with storage in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania near an airfield. The 32 megawatts of capacity will supply around 10,000 households.
Delta introduces a new battery storage system for commercial and industrial applications as well as EV charging stations. The storage system has a capacity of 100 to 200 kilowatts.
Philippines-based power producer Solar Pacific Energy Corporation (SPEC) appointed DNV as Owner’s Engineer for the 15.3 MW solar power and associated 13.2 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Ngatpang state on Babeldoab, the largest island in the Palau archipelago.
More than 20 million euros are being invested to meet the strong demand. The expansion will take place gradually until the beginning of 2025.
The Industrial L by Fenecon uses surplus or second-life EV batteries. These can be easily integrated into the cooling circuit.
