How competitive is BESS for data centers, really?
Volta Foundation’s July 2026 report ‘Where Batteries Can Win in Data Center Applications’ shows the two areas where battery energy storage systems (BESS) are winning, four where it is competing and two areas where it’s losing out to other technologies in the data center market.
The Hydrogen Stream: AEM electrolysis could deliver hydrogen at $3.27/kg, say Repsol, P2HP
Power to Hydrogen (P2H2) and Repsol completed a 1,250-hour pilot of P2H2’s hybrid AEM electrolyzer technology, demonstrating operation at 40% to 100% load, pressures up to 30 bar and hydrogen purity of up to 99.9%. P2H2 projects an LCOH of €3.86 ($4.47)/kg, potentially falling to €2.82/kg under optimized renewable energy conditions, and the companies are considering a 500 kW-to-MW-scale demonstration.

Why German energy provider Rabot Energy is selling a 2 kWh AC-only battery, no solar required
Rabot Energy launched Rabot Flow, a 2.12 kWh plug-and-play home battery for German apartment renters that uses dynamic tariffs to charge when grid electricity is cheap and discharge during price spikes.
Sold at cost and requiring no electrician or smart meter, the Marstek-based battery promises around €120–€130 in annual savings while helping Rabot boost customer retention and grid flexibility.
GoSun unveils solar-chargeable electric tractor
GoSun and Moonrider have launched a 27 hp electric tractor powered by a 24 kWh LFP battery, with optional 1.1 kW solar charging. The four-wheel-drive tractor offers about five hours of runtime and features a 750 kg hitch lift capacity, rear PTO and connected functions.
Iron-mediated cathode enables 206 Wh/kg sodium-ion pouch cell
Chinese researchers have developed an iron-mediated strategy that improves the reversibility and stability of lattice-oxygen redox reactions in sodium-ion battery cathodes. A 15.8 Ah pouch cell using the cathode achieved an energy density of 206 Wh/kg, with lattice-oxygen redox reversibility reaching 99%.
