In addressing the increasing need for efficient energy storage solutions, a recent study introduced an offline lithium-ion battery repair system that employs a dynamic strategy and hybrid topology, aiming to tackle common issues such as battery inconsistency, high costs, and single control methods in lithium battery packs.

As renewable energy penetration rises, balancing intermittent generation with reliable grid services remains a pressing challenge. Subsurface pumped energy storage (SPES) is emerging as a versatile solution, offering kilowatt-to-megawatt-scale power output from a single well while achieving storage densities over 30 times greater than conventional pumped hydro storage.

In a move that could test the commercial viability of natural hydrogen exploration in Canada, MAX Power Mining Corp. has defined the first deep-drilling target specifically designed to locate naturally occurring hydrogen gas within the country’s subsurface.

The U.S. energy storage sector recorded its strongest quarter on record in Q2 2025, adding 5.6 gigawatts (GW) of new capacity, according to the latest U.S. Energy Storage Monitor from the American Clean Power Association (ACP) and Wood Mackenzie.

Chile’s government has announced a recalibration of its green-hydrogen ambitions, signaling a shift in strategy as international demand softens. Speaking…

The United States deployed 5.6 GW of battery energy storage between April and June 2025, marking the highest quarterly installation rate on record, according to data released by the American Clean Power Association and Wood Mackenzie.

As artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) drive exponential growth in global electricity demand, attention is shifting to nuclear’s smaller cousin: the small modular reactor (SMR).

Fortescue has announced a web of cross-border alliances aimed at creating what it claims will be the lowest-cost, round-the-clock clean energy system—one that can rival and eventually outprice fossil fuels.

The Kansas Department of Commerce, TerraPower, and utility Evergy have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to evaluate sites for an advanced nuclear reactor and energy storage project, signaling how the sector is responding to mounting grid pressures.

Power to Hydrogen has secured $159,970 in funding from NGIF Accelerator, backed by Shell and FortisBC, to validate its patented anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyzer technology in the Canadian market.
