China’s Risen Energy is deploying containerized BESS units across Brazil’s northeast—enough to power 70,000 homes during blackouts [2]. Local startups are aggregating rooftop solar + storage into Brazil’s first VPP network, with 200MW planned by Q3 2026.
[pdf] According to Frontiers in Polymer Science, Professor Yi Cui's team at Stanford University has developed a nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery for large-scale renewable energy and storage applications, with the advantages of ultra-long service life, no risk of fire or thermal runaway, no need for routine maintenance, good low-temperature behavior, and low cost.
[pdf] Lithium-ion batteries must be handled with extreme care from when they're created, to being transported, to being recycled. Recycling is extremely vital to limiting the environmental impacts of lithium-ion batteries. By recycling the batteries, emissions and energy consumption can be reduced as less lithium would need to be mined and processed.
[pdf] Inherent in the Jingyuan energy storage projects is a suite of advanced technologies that enables enhanced energy retention and utilization. One key component involves the implementation of lithium-ion battery technology, which has revolutionized the energy storage landscape.
[pdf] The idea of an energy storage tolling agreement is derived from the concept of a gas tolling agreement (which is defined further down in this article). In an energy storage tolling agreement, the seller develops.
[pdf] Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have created a new iron flow battery design offering the potential for a safe, scalable renewable energy storage system.
