Which international trade issues will remain a concern for energy storage projects?
Two major areas of international trade that will remain causes of concern for energy storage projects are the application of tariffs and supply chain integrity.
Are storage batteries a priority for border detentions for forced labor evaluation?
Storage batteries have been indicated as a priority for border detentions for forced labor evaluation, and we expect to continue to see those goods identified as a concern.
Mitigating tariff risk in battery energy storage system (BESS) projects is crucial for ensuring project financial viability, as tariff changes can significantly affect cost structures and overall project economics.
There have also been indications that the US administration may consider other tariff proposals impacting energy storage, such as a 10–20% universal tariff, tariffs of up to 60% across the board on Chinese-origin goods, and tariffs of 25% on Mexican and Canadian origin goods.

Is the internal rate of return a profitability measure for battery storage systems?
Multiple requests from the same IP address are counted as one view. This paper assesses the profitability of battery storage systems (BSS) by focusing on the internal rate of return (IRR) as a profitability measure which offers advantages over other frequently used measures, most notably the net present value (NPV).
Internal Rate of Return (IRR) This paper is based on the IRR as a key economic metric for assessing the profitability of investment projects.
We argue in favour of the internal rate of return (IRR) as a preferred method to assess profitability given the advantages over the popular net present value (NPV) and many other frequently used profitability measures.
