In the latest edition in an annual series, last year the researchers found that in 2021, the residential segment continued to lead the market but a renaissance in the underperforming large-scale systems segment (defined as over 1,000MWh energy capacity) was forecast for 2022.. That came after just 36MW/32MWh of large-scale installs were estimated
The role of energy storage in accelerating our transition to renewables is why Alsym Energy is developing a high-performance, low-cost and non-flammable battery focusing on grid-scale battery storage. What Is Grid-Scale Battery Storage? When asked to define grid-scale energy storage, it''s important to start by explaining what "grid-scale

People gather in a plaza as Cuba is hit by an island-wide blackout, in Havana, Cuba, October 18, 2024. Cuba’s energy grid has collapsed, leaving millions without power, the latest in a series of failures on an island struggling from creaking infrastructure, natural disasters and economic turmoil.
While small-scale, such renewable energy initiatives can reduce pressure on the energy grid and provide relief in especially vulnerable places. Due to rising temperatures and increasingly unreliable energy infrastructure, action to update Cuba’s energy grid is urgently necessary.
By ALEXA ST. JOHN, INGRID LOBET and ANDREA RODRIGUEZ HAVANA (AP) — Cuba’s large-scale blackouts that left 10 million people without power this month may not have happened if the government had built out more solar power to boost its failing electric grid as promised, some experts say.
Cuba suffered from several power grid failures in October, which were initially caused by a lack of fuel at power plants that officials struggled to get back online because they were so outdated. The country’s national power grid collapsed again when Hurricane Oscar hit in late October, killing at least seven people.
In a nation with plentiful sunshine, Cuban officials have long had the opportunity to encourage solar power as one solution to national energy problems. But October’s sweeping outages — the island’s worst power failure in years — show little progress has been made.
A coherent policy and regulatory framework are essential for Cuba to facilitate an energy transition that does not disrupt energy supply, nor limits fuel supply to preferential political deals, incorporates short-term price subsidy programs, or employs inefficient technologies.
