Ford Motor Company has launched a new wholly owned subsidiary, Ford Energy, aimed at manufacturing stationary battery storage systems at its Kentucky facility with planned annual deployment capacity of 20 GWh.

The United Kingdom’s energy transition is entering a phase where storage duration is becoming as strategically important as generation capacity itself. As renewable penetration increases and periods of excess solar and wind generation become more common, the limitation is no longer only how much clean electricity can be produced, but how long it can be retained and dispatched when needed.

Germany is moving deeper into the industrialization phase of sustainable aviation fuel production, committing €350 million in public funding to the Brandenburg eSAF project in Schwedt as the European aviation sector faces binding fuel decarbonization mandates under the EU’s ReFuelEU Aviation framework.

Global corporate funding for energy storage companies reached USD 2.3 billion in the first quarter of 2026, underscoring how battery storage continues to attract capital even as broader clean energy investment markets face rising financing costs and increasing pressure on project economics.

Byhmgard AB has signed a right of first refusal agreement with Solarigo Systems Oy covering the development of battery energy storage system projects in Finland. The agreement includes an initial pilot project planned at approximately 50 MW in Nivala, at the Hitura site.

SoftBank is moving beyond its traditional telecommunications and technology focus with plans to establish a domestic battery manufacturing business aimed at supporting AI-driven power demand.

Fewer than 7% of announced European hydrogen projects have reached final investment decision, according to a new industry backed assessment that underscores the widening gap between the European Union’s hydrogen ambitions and the sector’s commercial reality.
