Global primary energy intensity, the key metric for measuring improvements in energy efficiency, is projected to rise by 1.8% in 2025, according to the IEA’s latest Energy Efficiency 2025 report, an improvement from 1% in 2024 but still far below the 4% annual increase agreed at COP28 for 2030.
EnergyPathways’ newly announced non-binding cooperation agreement with Siemens Energy positions compressed air energy storage (CAES) as a potential tool for absorbing surplus renewable electricity and delivering multi-day, low-carbon power, a capability conventional battery systems cannot economically provide at scale.
The global build-out of utility-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is rapidly shifting from project-by-project procurement to multi-gigawatt platform agreements, a trend underscored by the recently announced Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Trina Storage, a division of Trinasolar, and Pacific Green Energy Group.
ACCIONA Energía’s plan to install a 1GWh battery energy storage system (BESS) at its 238MWp Malgarida photovoltaic complex reflects a broader shift in Chile’s solar-heavy power market: the need to convert daytime oversupply into flexible, dispatchable capacity.
Bangalore-based Enectron Energy Storage Systems Private Limited is stepping in with a new line of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) aimed at utility-scale and commercial-industrial applications, designed to provide scalable, reliable, and safe power solutions for a grid transitioning toward 100 percent clean energy.
Bimergen Energy Corporation has formalized a Joint Development Agreement with Eos Energy Enterprises to accelerate the deployment of long-duration battery energy storage projects across key U.S. grids, including ERCOT, MISO, WECC, and PJM.
India is set to host one of the world’s largest single-site battery energy storage systems (BESS) as Adani Group moves into large-scale energy storage.
As Northern Ireland’s energy system grapples with the dual pressures of decarbonization and reliability, Larne-based renewable energy company RES has submitted a planning application for the Ballyross Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), a project designed to enhance grid flexibility near Larne, County Antrim.
