Researchers in Spain have simulated an energy community with varying electric-vehicle penetration levels (0%, 50%, and 100%) to analyze system optimization under different regulatory frameworks and EV brands. Charging strategies significantly affected overall performance and outcomes.
Spain’s Instituto Tecnológico de la Energía (ITE) has built a prototype sodium-ion battery cell using high-potential materials and a sustainable polymer-based separator, as part of the SOSBAT project to develop alternatives to lithium-ion storage.
Oregon-based battery system integrator Powin faces rising tariffs as it imports lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery components from China.
The Indian government has announced viability gap funding (VGF) of INR 54 billion ($631.5 million) to support 30 GWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS), allocating capacity among 15 states and the state-owned power producer NTPC. The scheme provides INR 1.8 million/MWh and requires projects to be commissioned within 18 months through competitive bidding.
US solar developers Soltage, Origis Energy, and rPlus Energies have secured more than $1 billion in financing across three major deals, signaling sustained investor confidence in utility-scale solar and storage despite US policy uncertainty. The transactions back more than 1.4 GW of solar and 1.8 GWh of battery capacity.
Australian battery tech startup Voltavate has secured AUD 850,000 ($535,000) in an oversubscribed pre-seed funding round led by global investment firm Artesian.
Grid companies LEW Verteilnetz and Bayernwerk have launched a pilot project to feed renewable energy into the electricity network in a more grid-friendly manner. One of the energy storage sites to be used in the project will come from Green Flexibility.
Sungrow has launched the PowerTitan 3.0 battery energy storage system (BESS), built around a 684 Ah cell and a fully liquid-cooled silicon carbide power conversion system.
Researchers at Deakin University have launched a first-of-its-kind project exploring how Australian households and small businesses with solar and or battery systems can sell their excess clean energy to others without the technology.
US solar manufacturing ramped up sharply in the first quarter of 2025, supporting record levels of new capacity as solar and storage made up 82% of additions to the grid. But proposed legislation and rising import tariffs could cloud growth prospects.
