Global energy company EcoFlow’s latest product, Gateway, is a wall mounted hardware system that can be installed indoors or outdoors and is compatible with third-party inverters and diesel generators as well as EcoFlow’s own extensive product suite.

Three US manufacturers actively working to commercialize their respective perovskite-silicon tandem technologies make the case for tandem modules. CubicPV, Caelux and Swift Solar argue a commercial future for perovskites is inevitable, and they tell pv magazine the current policy environment could work in the technology’s favor.

Data centers’ energy demand is well-documented. Hyperscale AI data centers owned by big-tech companies are placing acute strain on energy infrastructure in the United States, the global data center capital, and many more are expected to come online. There is ongoing debate about how policymakers, grid operators, regulators and the energy industry – renewable or otherwise – can respond to the situation. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) can provide grid-balancing solutions, but not all are convinced they can fully replace gas.

The Hagersville Park financing qualifies as a green loan. Once commissioned, the project will be one of Canada’s largest battery energy storage (BESS) sites.

The developers of the first-of-its-kind lead battery-powered EV charging station, currently located in Missouri, say they plan to roll it out across the U.S.

New patents to integrate artificial intelligence into global grids have grown sixfold over the past few years, with China driving overall innovation momentum. The European Patent Office, co-authors of the report, called for Europe to renew its efforts.

In the third quarter of 2024, the U.S. installed 3.8 GW of storage across all segments, 80% increase from Q3 2023.

ComEd wants to explore the benefits of using a grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) in tandem with a small community solar project. The utility will pair a BESS with a solar deployment owned by an Illinois brewery as part of a government supported pilot.

RWE plans to cycle EnerVenue’s nickel-hydrogen energy storage technology at its testing facility in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. RWE says it wants to boost its own storage capacity to 6 GW by 2030.

Terrasmart has designed and manufactured a racking system for a 2.8 MW solar carport project at Ohio’s Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens. The site’s owners claim it is the largest publicly accessible solar array in the United States, providing shade for up to 800 vehicles.
