Chile: 932 MWh grid-forming battery project moves ahead, 660 MWh battery energized at former coal plant site
Engie Chile has completed the energization of its 660 MWh Tocopilla Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), while Trina Storage and Atlas Renewable Energy have advanced the 932 MWh Copiapó PV + BESS project – one of the largest grid-forming installations in Latin America.
Big batteries draw short straw in Australia’s Solar Sharer scheme: Rystad analysis
Rystad Energy has released analysis of the federal government’s Solar Sharer scheme saying forecast increased demand from utility and household batteries and a slowdown of rooftop solar could boost utility renewables and coal via increased daytime demand, but impact gas and utility batteries.
Green Flexibility buys 500 MW of battery storage projects in Germany
The framework agreement stipulates that Hamburg-based Hansa Battery will develop the projects up to the construction-ready stage. Green Flexibility will then assume responsibility for implementation and operation, as well as contribute financially to securing the necessary grid reservations.
Dubai expands storage in seventh phase of world’s largest solar park
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) says the seventh phase of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park will pair 2 GW of solar with 1.4 GW of storage, up from 1 GW, after receiving 49 expressions of interest under its 2050 clean energy plan.
