The increasing power demands of data centers are adding urgency to grid resiliency and renewable energy projects. Data center electricity use is expected to grow 300% by 2035 as hyperscale cloud computing companies race to adopt new technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI). Renewable energy and microgrid solutions will play an essential role in the digitalized and electrified future.

Germany-based TWAICE, a provider of predictive analytics software for battery energy storage systems (BESS), has announced a three-year partnership with independent power producer Fullmark Energy. TWAICE on August 27 said its Battery Storage Analytics platform will support four energy storage installations operated by Fullmark in Southern California. The sites will have a total capacity of […]

As renewable energy becomes the foundation of electricity systems around the world, the importance of stationary battery storage is no longer in question. Lithium-ion batteries are being deployed at unprecedented rates to support grid reliability, integrate variable generation, defer infrastructure upgrades, and provide flexible capacity across multiple electricity markets. These systems are now considered critical […]

A global energy infrastructure management group said one of its solar-plus-storage projects in the UK is now online. Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners on July 1 said the 373-MW Cleve Hill Solar Park has started commercial operation, and represents the largest solar power and energy storage installation built to date in the UK. Quinbrook on Tuesday said […]

Chile is rapidly moving to build more power generation capacity, with much of that effort focused on renewable energy resources and battery energy storage systems (BESS). The country as part of that ambition

The California Energy Commission (CEC) has approved the Darden Clean Energy Project, which the agency said is the first to be fast-tracked under the group’s Opt-In Certification program. The commission said the installation features 1,150 MW, or 4,600 kWh, of battery energy storage, along with a 1,150-MW solar array with about 3.1-million panels.

Energy Vault Holdings, a company that provides sustainable, grid-scale energy storage solutions, on June 11 announced the successful completion and start of commercial operation of the 57-MW, two-hour Cross Trails battery energy storage system (BESS) in Scurry County, Texas. The project, which marks the first fully executed asset under Energy Vault’s “Own & Operate” growth strategy, was completed ahead of schedule and will be supported by a 10-year offtake agreement with Gridmatic, a leading AI-enabled power marketer.

Agilitas Energy, a developer and operator of renewable energy and energy storage systems, announced the commissioning of a 9.96-MW/22.4-MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Houston, Texas. The project marks the first distributed generation BESS interconnected to CenterPoint Energy’s distribution system and participating in Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT)’s wholesale delivery market.

A battery energy storage system (BESS) described as the largest deployed to date in the European Union (EU) has been commissioned in Bulgaria. Officials with the country’s Ministry of Energy said the 124-MW/496.2-MWh BESS, also the largest in the Balkans, supports the stability of Bulgaria’s power grid along with its transition to the use of more renewable energy resources.
