BYD Earns Contract for “World’s Largest Grid-Scale Battery Storage Projects” in Saudi Arabia
Grid-scale energy storage is all the rage. Battery costs have come down tremendously in the past decade, and that has enabled large-scale battery storage projects to help the grid balance out supply and demand. This is also particularly useful for integrating low-cost but intermittent renewable energy projects — terawatts worth … [continued]

Councillors raise issues about Tara-area battery storage plan
A company proposing to build a 400-megawatt battery-storage facility southeast of Tara in Bruce County updated Arran-Elderslie council recently. The project could begin charging up its batteries when demand is low and releasing power back to the electricity grid when its needed starting in the fourth quarter of 2027, Brittany Morrison, proponent Neoen’s representative, said […]
Truck Charging: Start Small, Scale Smart
Key Takeaways: Trucks won’t all be electric immediately, so don’t build charging for 100% electric Design charging microgrids for standardized increments of capacity Analyze all sites and design increments that are good enough Gaining the benefits of electric trucks, including significantly reduced maintenance and operations costs and increasing market share, … [continued]
