Highlights:Meridian Energy is building New Zealand’s first large-scale grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) at Ruakākā on North IslandSaft lithium-ion technology will provide 100 MW power and 200 MWh storage capacity to support grid stability as intermittent wind and solar power increases in New Zealand
[pdf] Brazil’s new 2025 energy storage regulations create urgent opportunities for businesses to pair solar with lithium batteries. Here’s why: Overloaded grids cause interconnection delays for DG systems. Batteries enable off-grid operation during peak congestion, ensuring uninterrupted power.
[pdf] With a total investment of $3 million and an area of 7000 m2, the recycling plant, furnished with cutting-edge technologies, is focused on recovering valuable materials from locally used batteries, with a projected production capacity of 1000 tonnes per month, along with exporting lead ingots, lead oxide, and red lead oxide to key markets, including India, China, Korea, and several European countries.
[pdf] Project owners BSTOR and Energy Solutions Group have started building separate BESS projects totalling 440MWh of capacity in Belgium, following financial close, both of which will use Tesla Megapacks.
[pdf] The Sao Tome smart energy storage battery isn’t your grandpa’s clunky power bank. It’s like having a Swiss Army knife for energy management – compact, intelligent, and ready for anything from running a hospital’s MRI machine to keeping your Netflix binge sessions uninterrupted during tropical storms.
[pdf] Recent advancements now allow lithium-ion batteries to store 305 Wh/kg, making them the Usain Bolt of energy storage [4]. Texas' infamous 2023 grid failure could've been avoided with proper storage.
