As global electricity systems grow increasingly dependent on renewable energy, precision in managing energy storage assets has become a decisive factor in grid stability and project profitability. Wärtsilä’s new GEMS Pulse platform directly addresses this operational challenge by transforming raw battery data into actionable intelligence—aiming to unlock the full financial and technical potential of energy storage systems.

By 2030, data centres are projected to consume 6% of Australia’s grid-supplied electricity — a share larger than that of the entire healthcare and social assistance sector.

Global renewable energy capacity is projected to expand by 4,600 GW by 2030, roughly equivalent to the combined installed capacity of China, the European Union, and Japan, according to the IEA’s Renewables 2025 report.

Swiss greentech startup Plan-B Net Zero introduced a hybrid system that merges battery storage, green hydrogen, and artificial intelligence to stabilize power grids and improve energy utilization efficiency, at the DA-CH Hydrogen Symposium in Wiener Neustadt.

The Department of Energy announced the cancellation of $13 billion in federal financing allocated for clean energy projects, representing the largest single reversal in climate investment since the Inflation Reduction Act established $370 billion in tax credits, grants, and loans in 2022.

A unanimous vote by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has set in motion a comprehensive update of reliability standards for the U.S. bulk power system, aimed at addressing evolving cybersecurity threats, supply chain risks, and the resilience of electric infrastructure in extreme cold.

Spain is preparing to inject unprecedented resources into its power network as surging demand from hydrogen, renewables, and data infrastructure strains the country’s existing grid.

The European Central Bank (ECB) is preparing to tighten collateral rules for loans tied to high-emitting activities, but early estimates…

Artificial intelligence is being framed less as a technological revolution and more as a national survival project. Yet even as the White House describes AI as a “new Manhattan Project,” lawmakers are still receiving primers on basic concepts.

Britain’s grid currently cannot sustain clean energy operation for even one hour despite ambitious plans to achieve 95% renewable power…
