Eku Energy and NHOA have announced plans to build two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, totalling 130MWh, in Essex and Buckinghamshire.

TagEnergy, a renewable energy developer, confirmed this week that it had closed a €570 million (£487 million) green bond to boost its solar, wind and energy storage pipelines in the UK, Europe and Australia.

Renewable Power Capital (RPC) has signed a new partnership with Greenfield to develop at least 500MW of battery storage in the UK.

To help develop its pipeline of battery storage projects across the UK, Pulse Clean Energy has secured a three-year £175 million (US$215 million) credit facility.

Centrica Business Solutions is set to deploy a 24MW/54MWh two-hour-plus battery energy storage system (BESS) in Belgium via Alfen, a Netherlands-based company.

Field Energy, the UK battery storage developer, has announced it plans to expand into Italy.

The UK deployed 833MW of battery energy storage in 2022 helping Europe reach 4.5GW of total battery storage capacity the same year, according to data from Enact and Aurora Energy Research respectively.

The UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) is providing £30 million in grants for three long-duration energy storage (LDES) projects using novel energy storage technologies.

Invinity Energy Systems is set to deploy a partially grant-funded 7MW/30MWh vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) system in the UK.

Inverter supplier Sungrow and developer Constantine Energy Storage are partnering on 825MWh of BESS projects in the UK, including two with discharge durations of nearly three hours.
