The government of Western Australia has begun a drive to deploy at least 1,000 renewable energy off-grid power systems aimed at bringing resilient electricity supplies to communities and customers. Called standalone power systems (SAPS), the technology combines equipment including battery storage and solar PV. The state government today announced its rollout will commence with 180...Continue Reading
To integrate a targeted 500GW of non-fossil fuel energy onto its networks by 2030, at least 160GWh of energy storage will be needed in India by that time, according to the India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA). This energy storage capacity would include front-of-the-meter grid-scale storage, storage for integrating renewable energy directly, storage for distribution and...Continue Reading

247’s decentralized energy production fits both in existing grids or can operate stand-alone and generate energy for local needs. 247 can also serve as grid-backup when there is no renewable energy (solar/wind) available. The system is containerized and can be implemented onsite in half a day.Continue Reading
Total demand for energy storage between this year and 2030 could be close to 1TWh worldwide, according to analysis from Wood Mackenzie Power & Renewables. The consultancy has issued the latest edition of its ‘Global energy storage outlook’ report today, predicting that the energy storage market this year will see 12GW / 28GWh of deployments,...Continue Reading
Research firm IHS Markit has said that 2021 marks the start of a continued period of rapid growth for the global energy storage industry, forecasting more than 12GW installations in total this year. source: energy storage newsContinue Reading
In June and July, solar power accounted for one tenth of all electricity generated in the European Union. A record amount of almost 39 terawatt hours (billion kilowatt hours) was also generated. This is stated by climate think tank Ember in a new analysis. In 2018, considerably less solar electricity was generated during the two...Continue Reading
Enabling power grids to function more flexibly and resiliently, the deployment of battery storage across the US has increased from about 100MW at the end of 2012 to 1,650MW by the end of 2020, accelerating from an inflection point year in 2015. A new report from the US Department of Energy’s Energy Information Administration (EIA)...Continue Reading
A 150MW / 600MWh battery storage system would be a central component of a proposed “state-of-the-art clean energy underground highway,” capable of transmitting renewable energy into New York City from Upstate New York, Energy-Storage.news has heard. New York’s electric transmission system needs to be able to support the ongoing and rapid growth of renewable energy. The state’s Climate...Continue Reading
