Construction work will include the development of 10 MW of solar power along with an energy storage system with two-hour lithium-ion batteries with a capacity of approximately 13 MW / 26 MWh, as well as connection to LUCELEC’s 66 kV transmission grid. [pdf]
From just under 0.5 terawatts (TW) in 2024, total capacity is expected to rise ninefold to over 4 TW by 2040, driven by battery energy storage systems (BESS). Last year saw a record-breaking 200 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of new BESS projects coming online, a growth rate of 80%. [pdf]

That's Laos for you – quietly transforming from a hydropower giant to a pioneer in the Laos energy storage industry. With 80% of its electricity already coming from renewables (mostly hydropower), Laos is now betting big on energy storage solutions to juice up its regional influence. [pdf]
This article looks at the newest storage-container upgrades made for industry, including how they are built, how they work, and what gains they bring to day-to-day operations. One of the most important breakthroughs is the use of cutting-edge battery systems built right into the storage shell. [pdf]
Bolivia’s ambitious plan to triple its renewable energy capacity by 2026—adding 902 MW of wind and solar—sounds like a green energy dream come true. But here’s the kicker: intermittent renewables need a reliable sidekick. Enter pumped hydropower storage (PSH), the "Swiss Army knife" of energy grids. [pdf]
This is a list of power stations in New Zealand. The list is not exhaustive – only power stations over 0.5 MW and significant power stations below 0.5 MW are listed. Power plants in New Zealand have different generating roles – for baseload, intermediate or peaking. generators are those that run continuously (. [pdf]
