EVC Zero Capex BESS Programme: Get battery storage system with no upfront cost - SoyaCincau

EVC's new initiative made it possible for businesses to get a battery energy storage system (BESS) with no upfront cost. A BESS can help businesses reduce electricity costs and improve power reliability.

CenterPoint Energy partnering on battery storage project that aims to bolster Houston-area power grid

The project is part of a growing trend statewide that has exponentially increased Texas' battery capacity over the past few years.

#ChatGPT Deepsearch ist schon ein geiles Tool, jetzt habe ich Whitepapers, Studien, Technische Abhandlungen, Marketingkram und ohne Ende Infos zu #BESS, #GFM, #Inertia und alles mögliche rund um #GridStability.

Also wörtlich hunderte Seiten PDFs und die jeweiligen Kurzzusammenfassungen sind auch vielversprechend.

Ich muss da mal ein bisschen reinlesen um mehr zu verstehen.

So, a #BatteryEnergyStorageSystem is in the works a few miles from where we live -- on the #SacoRiver. The local fire departments are already working on keeping on top of an incident if one happens, and knowing what to do if a #LithiumBatteryFire breaks out (the area where we live was mostly burned down in 1947, so fires are a big deal around here). It's something to be aware of. #LithiumBatteries aren't the saviors they are being made out to be. We need to invest in #SodiumIonBatteries and #SaltWaterBatteries and anything BUT #Lithium at this point -- ASAP!

#Wales - Explosion fears over proposed huge battery farm

by Dafydd Evans, BBC News, January 16, 2025

"Concerns about fires and explosions have been raised over plans to build one of the UK largest #BatteryFarms.

"The Ynni Celyn project would create a 1,000MW #BatteryEnergyStorageSystem (BESS) site on green fields above the village of #Gwyddelwern in #Denbighshire.

"A public meeting will be held on Thursday, with some residents concerned about the safety of the site and potential #EnvironmentalDamage.

"Developer #NatPower said safety was 'paramount' and only about a third of the 75 acre site would house batteries.

"BESS are being built across the UK to help balance the electricity grid, which is becoming increasingly powered by #renewables.

"The systems hold electricity generated from renewable sources such as wind turbines and solar farms.

"Plans for the site, close to the #ClwydianHills and a planned new #NationalPark, were recently shown to the community.

"Dr Kevin Sharp lives near the proposed site and said it could create a 'potential catastrophe'.

"He added said: 'We know that these batteries can catch fire, explode and emit lots of very #ToxicGases.

"'I don't think anyone can guarantee the safety of everybody around here, should there be an incident.'

"'A small chance of a bad thing is an unacceptable risk for the people who live locally.'

"Demand for electricity is expected to double in Wales by 2050 as efforts to reduce carbon emissions continue and BESS sites are seen as providing a stable and reliable supply.

"Similarly sized projects are being built or have been approved.

"However, fires and explosions have been reported around the world including one at a 20MW site in #Liverpool in 2020.

"Jamie Corry also lives close to the site and said it was unsuitable due to the 'shocking' access for the fire service."
