Energy Storage

The Danish company said its configurable CO2 system delivers up to 4.8 MW per unit and is scalable to 50 MW for large industrial and commercial projects. The units offer hot water output of up to 95 C and compatibility with complex installations such as food processing, district heating, and commercial buildings.

Edify Energy will start construction proper of two massive solar and battery energy storage projects in Queensland, Australia, by mid-year after naming DT Infrastructure as its preferred engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor.

In an interview with pv magazine, cybersecurity expert Roberto Setola describes a structural shift in cyber threats against solar energy infrastructure, where attacks now target peripheral systems like remote terminal units rather than centralized SCADA, often in coordinated campaigns amplified by AI. He also emphasized that the recent cyberattack to PV plants in Poland demonstrated how simultaneous strikes on smaller, less-protected operators can potentially trigger major disruptions, including blackouts, economic losses, and cascading grid risks.

A Japanese joint-pilot will test grid-scale BESS with a range of local and remote attack vectors, with cybersecurity monitoring to watch for indications of anomalies.

The Nexis solution combines a flexibly configurable hybrid inverter with a modular high-voltage battery offering up to 14 kW charging capacity per stack. The inverter delivers 8–20 kW AC power, supports up to 200% DC oversizing, and features IP65-rated design with integrated backup power.

Scientists from Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), RMIT University and the University of Melbourne have developed a quantum battery prototype that demonstrates rapid, scalable energy storage using collective quantum effects.

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are increasingly used in uninterruptible power supply (UPS) applications for data centers and to speed grid connections, offering services beyond what gas turbines can provide, including emerging approaches such as bring your own capacity (BYOC) and flexible grid connections (FGC).

GBP K.K., a Japan-based clean energy infrastructure company, has launched perimeter fencing systems for grid-scale solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) sites, targeting security in difficult terrain and noise mitigation near residential areas.

The Italian heating solutions provider said its new Nuos Plus S2 Wi-Fi heat pump system offers up to 80% energy savings and a coefficient of performance of up to 3.51.

The Chinese manufacturer said its new Nex E6000 and Nex E6000H storage systems combine a 6 kWh battery, an inverter, and an integrated energy management system, with scalable design allowing multiple units to be networked for higher capacity and coordinated energy sharing.
