The government of Burkina Faso recently reached a public-private partnership with the Dutch company Gutami Holdings to jointly develop and construct a 150 megawatt solar photovoltaic power generation project, and to build a 50 megawatt hour battery energy storage system. [pdf]
Electricity can be stored directly for a short time in capacitors, somewhat longer electrochemically in , and much longer chemically (e.g. hydrogen), mechanically (e.g. pumped hydropower) or as heat. The first pumped hydroelectricity was constructed at the end of the 19th century around in Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. The technique rapidly expanded during the 196. [pdf]
Government outlines €400 million plan to strengthen grid resilience after April blackout. Portugal will launch a competitive tender for 750 MVA of battery energy storage before January 2026, as part of a broader €400 million package aimed at improving grid reliability and preventing future blackouts.

Huawei Digital Power showcased plans for its storage systems and electric vehicle (EV) ultra-fast charging points at Intersolar 2025, with storage described as the “third revolution” for Brazilian energy consumers. [pdf]
Designed to tackle energy intermittency (you know, those days when the sun hides or the wind takes a coffee break), this project aims to store enough clean energy to power 500,000 homes annually. But hey, it’s not just about batteries – it’s about rewriting Brazil’s energy playbook. [pdf]
Developed by GBP Tanzania, the project aligns with the National Clean Cooking Energy Strategy, which aims to reduce reliance on traditional fuels, enhance access to affordable energy, and modernize the energy sector. [pdf]
The Azerbaijani Energy Ministry and SOCAR Green LLC signed an agreement with China Datang Overseas Investment Co. Ltd. on the assessment, development and implementation of a 100 MW floating solar power plant project with a 30 MW battery energy storage system in Lake Boyukshor in Baku. [pdf]
In a transformational move away from lithium-based battery systems, the project team will initiate development of a family of new, high-energy density sodium-based battery chemistries. These include sodium-ion, sodium-halogen, low-temperature sodium-sulfur, sodium-water, sodium-air and others. [pdf]
PTTEP, Thailand’s national exploration and production company, has approved its final investment decision to build the country’s first carbon capture and storage (CCS) project at the Arthit gas field in the Gulf of Thailand. [pdf]
