NYSE-listed ESS Inc said its battery energy storage system (BESS) will enable load smoothing, peak demand shifting and enable Sapele''s power station
The deal is the largest BESS export to Africa financed (in part) by the Export-Import Bank of the United States of America, the official export credit agency of the US federal government, and ESS Inc''s first on the continent.
ESS Inc, ESI partner on 3.2 GWh iron flow battery manufaturing site in Australia Under construction long-duration storage manufacturing site secures AUD 65 million ($45 million) in public and private funds, including AUD 25 million from state government. ESS Inc confirms to ESS News it has ambitions to manufacture in Europe.
ESS iron flow batteries are currently more affordable compared to their lithium-ion counterparts. As of recent estimates, ESS''s iron-based batteries could be priced as low as $200 per kilowatt-hour or less by 2025 .
Iron Flow Batteries: The Ethical Alternative ESS'' long-duration energy storage systems avoid problematic minerals like lithium, nickel and cobalt. With technology based on earth-abundant and safe ingredients – primarily iron, salt and water – the ESS value chain benefits local communities instead of harming them, delivering hundreds of
Image: ESS Inc / LEAG / Intersolar Europe. US flow battery manufacturer ESS Tech Inc (ESS Inc) has made "tremendous progress" on its ability to recognise revenues and reduced direct costs of production of its
By 2025, the cost of ESS iron-based batteries is projected to drop to as low as $200 per kWh or less, according to industry insights. This reduction in cost is driven by the affordable price of iron electrolytes and innovations in battery design that enhance performance while lowering manufacturing expenses. 2. The Cost Dynamics of Iron Flow
In the case of Schiphol Airport, ESS Inc said the iron flow battery''s safety and sustainability profile was key. Flow batteries do not go into thermal runaway as lithium batteries can if overcharged or physically abused, meaning there is no or minimal fire or explosion risk from being installed close to where aircraft will be.
Shares and warrants of iron flow battery provider ESS Inc have commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Shareholders in special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) ACON S2 Acquisition Corp voted to approve a business combination with ESS Inc, which then went ahead and created the combined, NYSE-listed entity.

The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
