The German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur) has awarded 587MW of solar-plus-storage in its latest Innovation Tender. As has been the case in many of Germany''s recent solar PV auctions, the Innovation Tender ended up oversubscribed, with 154 bids made for 1.8GW of capacity out of 583MW tendered capacity.
Strata, with its western headquarters in Phoenix, has a strong presence in the region, and more than 6GW of solar PV and 24 gigawatt hours of battery storage projects under development. In 2023, Strata Clean Energy secured a 20-year tolling agreement for the Scatter Wash project with Arizona Public Service (APS).
The UKs largest council-owned battery storage site, the 30MW Fideoak Mill site, is now fully operational. Located at South Somerset District Council''s (SSDC) site in Taunton, an additional £2.5 million of investment has allowed the council to commission a further 5MW, making it the largest site of its kind in the UK.
The Republic of Ireland''s environment minister officially opened a 75MW/150MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) last week. Skip to content County (Co) Dublin (30MW/60MWh) and Aghada, Co Cork (19MW/38MWh), as reported by our sister site Solar Power Portal. The 150MWh Poolbeg BESS was announced later that year along with
Explore the BSLBATT ESS-GRID Cabinet Series, an industrial and commercial energy storage system available in 200kWh, 215kWh, 225kWh, and 245kWh capacities, designed for peak shaving, energy backup, demand response, and enhanced solar ownership, while supporting grid-tied, off-grid, and hybrid solar systems and pairing with diesel generators.
Among the topics the parties will work closely on in the future are local energy production, with a focus on solar, wind and geothermal heat, future energy storage where batteries, thermal and renewable energy carriers are the focus areas, and management of hybrid energy solutions.

The US industry installed 1,067MW of energy storage in Q4 2022, but just 48MW of those were categorised as commercial and industrial (C&I) or community-scale projects, according to a recent report from Wood Mackenzie Power & Renewables. Adding up to 195MW total in that category for the whole of 2022, versus 593MW of residential deployments and
The Philippines government has given a ''green lane certificate'' for a solar and storage project slated as the largest in the world. which plans to pair 3,500MW of solar PV with a 4,500MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). It is hoped the certificate could help Terra Solar reach commercial operations for its first phase—for which
This annual report explores the current market landscape of energy storage operations, asset-level operations costs by size and region, equipment failure risk, performance downside risk, contracting best practices and technological innovation.
Maintaining a varied approach for solar and storage projects in Eastern Europe, both in terms of the storage technologies being used and the financial instruments used to support projects,...
A salmon farm in Norway will become more environmentally friendly with the addition of a Tesvolt-supplied battery energy storage system, reducing the run time of diesel generators onsite by up to 18 hours a day and saving on costs and working time spent on
Tesvolt''s new product, the TS-1 HV 80, comes with integrated energy management system (EMS) and inverter technology. It is designed to offer commercial and industrial (C&I) entities peak shaving functions that lower their energy costs by reducing their draw of electricity from the grid at peak times, but also offers onsite backup power and ensures

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.
