New energy storage project completed

NYCIDA closed its largest battery energy storage project to date, the East River Energy Storage Project, located on an industrial site on the East River in Astoria, Queens. When built, the facility will be able to hold up to 100 megawatts (MW) and power over tens of thousands of. . Following a record year in 2024, when more than 10 gigawatts of utility-scale battery storage were installed nationwide, deployment accelerated even further in 2025. By mid-2025, industry tracking showed that year-to-date battery installations had already exceeded the total of 2024's additions.. Just eight years ago, site owner Xcel Energy was laying plans to replace its existing Sherco coal power plant at Becker in the Minneapolis area with a new 786-megawatt gas power plant. [PDF Version]

Ottawa New Energy Storage Project

The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) enables Ottawa to integrate six newly approved solar projects and reduce increasing reliance on gas-fired electricity during peak hours.. The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) enables Ottawa to integrate six newly approved solar projects and reduce increasing reliance on gas-fired electricity during peak hours.. In 2025, the City of Ottawa established official plan and zoning provisions for battery energy storage uses in accordance with new Official Plan policy. BESS is an emerging technology using batteries and associated equipment to store excess energy from the electrical grid, which can then discharge. . Changes have been made to the city's Official Plan and zoning bylaws to create a building for storing electricity in off-peak hours from the grid. The City of Ottawa's Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee approved the changes for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), set to guide the land use. .

Tungsten Energy Storage Project

With Chile's solar capacity hitting 3.9GW and Brazil's wind installations reaching 5.9GW last quarter [6], the pressure's on to develop storage systems that won't buckle under extreme conditions. That's where South America's tungsten reserves could rewrite the rules.. Tungsten, a metal with remarkable properties, has emerged as a potential game-changer in the field of energy storage systems (ESS). The evolution of tungsten's role in ESS can be traced back to the early 2000s when researchers began exploring its unique characteristics for enhancing battery. . Previous years have witnessed a rapid surge in WO 3 -based experimental reports for the construction of energy storage devices (ESDs) and electrochromic devices (ECDs). WO 3 is a highly electrochromic (EC) material with a wide band gap that has been extensively used for the construction of working. . Oxford Sigma has published a scientific peer-reviewed research study titled “Supply and Demand of Tungsten in a Fleet of Fusion Power Plants,” focusing on the analysis and assessment of tungsten consumption for future fusion supply chains. Let's face it – lithium-ion. . Every April 22nd, stakeholders of all backgrounds come together to advance sustainability and climate action in commemoration of Earth Day. This year, the theme “Invest in Our Planet”, highlights the importance of dedicating our time, resources, and energy to solving climate change. Increasing our. [PDF Version]
