What’s next for energy storage?
Lithium-ion continue to dominate, yet new chemistries, such as sodium-ion and solid-state, are beginning to shape the future.
Grid-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are being deployed at record speed, while Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) are redefining how capacity is aggregated and traded.
At the same time, leading companies are making bold moves: some are preparing for IPOs, others are expanding into new markets, and a few are facing scrutiny over supply chain risks and operational setbacks.
For investors, policymakers, and industry professionals, understanding these dynamics is critical.
