GSSG Chikuden secures a $400 million investment from Vision Ridge Partners to develop utility-scale battery storage across Japan. This strategic move aims to fortify the nation’s grid, integrate more renewables, and accelerate decarbonization efforts. [pdf]
Electricity can be stored directly for a short time in capacitors, somewhat longer electrochemically in , and much longer chemically (e.g. hydrogen), mechanically (e.g. pumped hydropower) or as heat. The first pumped hydroelectricity was constructed at the end of the 19th century around in Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. The technique rapidly expanded during the 196. [pdf]
The government of Burkina Faso recently reached a public-private partnership with the Dutch company Gutami Holdings to jointly develop and construct a 150 megawatt solar photovoltaic power generation project, and to build a 50 megawatt hour battery energy storage system. [pdf]
Inverters must comply with EN 50549, which specifies requirements for connecting to the power distribution network. Energy storage systems, increasingly common in solar installations, require UN 38.3 certification for lithium batteries and must meet IEC 62619 standards for safety requirements. [pdf]
