Batteries + Grids

U.S. manufacturing growth is driving hazardous waste demand. A new study estimates billions in economic losses if treatment capacity fails to keep pace.

EIA expects gas storage 5% above average entering winter, giving executives time to test energy offers against the budget variance their business can carry.

More than £7bn is committed to UK batteries, but serious supply-chain gaps persist. Refining, factory delays and 2035 demand could test the sector’s next phase.

EnerVenue is scaling battery production in China. Its 30-year nickel-hydrogen technology promises lower lifetime costs, but commercial performance remains unproven.

As wind and solar equipment ages, an established grid connection can make a project attractive for repowering, though permits still need full review.

PJM has asked FERC to approve curtailment-first service for new large loads, and facilities leaders need to price that operating commitment before connecting.

Green steel is emerging, but buyers and producers are often far apart. RMI’s book-and-claim model could connect demand with cleaner production without delivery.

A temporary 500 MW transformer could give Rotterdam port companies earlier grid access, but capacity, eligibility and connection dates remain unconfirmed.

Amazon is testing lower-carbon aluminum in Ohio data center cabling. The project could gauge whether cleaner materials can scale across hyperscale construction.

AI workloads are pushing rack power to new extremes. That shift is making 800V DC a bigger part of data center design, cost and infrastructure planning.

R3 Lithium has started operations at its Covington, Georgia, recycling plant. The site will now recover lithium carbonate from used batteries and scrap locally.

New IRS and ownership scrutiny on battery suppliers reaches beyond factory location to control and materials. Early checks can protect credits and schedules.

Utilities plan record grid spending through 2030, but Illinois and Michigan cases show regulators testing project evidence before it reaches customer bills.

Noria Energy is bringing single-axis tracking to floating solar with Airon. The system aims to deliver more output from the same project footprint on the water.

TurboGen has named former NYC Mayor Eric Adams to its advisory board. His role will focus on U.S. customers, partnerships and commercial market growth efforts.

Buried inside EPA's power plant repeal is a proposal asking whether the agency has authority to regulate power-sector emissions at all under Section 111.

Researchers are testing a process that turns arsenic mine waste into high-purity metal. It could limit cleanup risks while creating a fresh source for industry.

Desalination has always traded a water problem for an energy one, but energy recovery devices and solar integration are shrinking that trade fast.

WBCSD finds more than 2.5 terawatts of renewable and storage projects stuck in grid queues worldwide, while curtailment climbs in most markets tracked.

Electric vessels can arrive before ports are ready to power them. Tidal Transit is testing mobile battery storage to close that charging gap as local grids lag.
