The project, considered the world's largest solar-storage project, will install 3.5GW of solar photovoltaic capacity and a 4.5GWh battery storage system. The project has commenced in November 2024. [pdf]
In a press statement on Tuesday, the state-owned Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) said the 1.16 megawatt-hour (MWh) battery energy storage system (BESS) marks a new frontier in Kenya’s long-term green energy strategy. [pdf]
NGEN commissioned Austria’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS). It installed it in record time – just seven months. Located in Fürstenfeld, in the country’s southeast, the facility has 24 MWh in capacity and a maximum output of 12 MW. [pdf]
Polish state-owned energy company PGE Group announced on Friday (5 January) that it has obtained connection conditions for a battery storage facility with a capacity of 400 megawatts (MW) in Gryfino (northwestern Poland). [pdf]
In Abu Dhabi, Masdar has announced a $6 billion project combining 5 GW of solar capacity with 19 GWh of battery storage, aiming to provide 1 GW of continuous power output, making it the largest solar and battery storage project globally. [pdf]

The Government of Burkina Faso has signed a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) agreement with a local developer and a Dutch clean energy investment firm to develop a major solar and battery storage system. [pdf]
A home BESS system is a residential energy storage solution that captures electricity from the grid or renewable sources for later use. Key components include: Battery modules: store energy for immediate or later consumption. Inverter/charger: converts DC from batteries to AC for household use. [pdf]
The primary cause of such fires is the highly flammable electrolytes, but since Zn-ion secondary batteries use water-based electrolytes, there is no risk of explosion. This is why they are considered one of the more promising candidates to replace Li-ion batteries. [pdf]
Passive battery balancing is the simpler and more common method, especially in smaller or lower-cost systems. It works like this: When one cell in a pack reaches full charge before the others, a resistor shunts (diverts) current away from that cell and releases the excess energy as heat. [pdf]
Here are the drawbacks of using lead acid batteries: Heavy Weight: Lead is a relatively heavy element compared to alternatives, making the batteries bulky. Low Specific Energy: They have a low specific energy, resulting in a poor weight to energy ratio. [pdf]
