Projects & Applications


The global pipeline of energy storage projects is growing rapidly across a variety of market segments, including distributed, grid-scale, off-grid and second-life projects.
From increasing solar self-consumption, reducing consumption peaks, providing flexibility to the electricity system, to deferring costly investments in transmission and distribution infrastructure, the range of applications which energy storage devices can provide is constantly evolving.
To build a robust business case, however, most storage facilities need to provide several services.

India’s NTPC Green Energy wins 320 MWh of battery projects
The renewables division of India's National Thermal Power Company (NTPC), and Opera Energy, were winners in a tender held by the National Hydroelectric Power Corporation (NHPC) for standalone battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the state of Kerala.

Falling li-ion battery prices mirror solar photovoltaics trends: Is there a role for second-life batteries before recycling?
Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere, powering everything from consumer electronics to electric vehicles, residential PV storage systems, and, more recently, mitigating curtailment in large-scale wind and solar power plants. EVs are driving large-scale demand for Li-ion batteries which will result in substantial volumes of spent batteries in the near future. This scenario highlights the potential for repurposing EV batteries for second-life stationary applications, which could maximise their value before recycling. However, to fully realise this opportunity, several economic, technical, and regulatory challenges must be addressed and resolved.
