SACRAMENTO — The California Energy Commission (CEC) today approved a $30 million grant to Form Energy to build a long-duration energy storage project that will continuously discharge to the grid for an unprecedented 100 hours. The 5 megawatt (MW) / 500 megawatt-hour iron-air battery storage project. . The U. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE) today announced. . Electrical Energy Storage (EES) systems store electricity and convert it back to electrical energy when needed. 1 Batteries are one of the most common forms of electrical energy storage. The first battery, Volta's cell, was developed in 1800. The Bureau of Reclamation released proposals for managing Colorado River reservoirs amid stalled negotiations among seven states over water sharing.

Almost 600,000 new stationary battery storage systems were installed across Germany in 2024, increasing the country's storage capacity by 50 percent year-on-year, according to preliminary data from the German Solar Industry Association (BSW Solar). In 2024, the number, output, and storage capacity of battery systems in Germany grew by around 50% compared to the previous year. Growth remains slower than in more mature markets, such as Great Britain. As capital pours in and gigawatt-hour-scale projects near launch, grid connection delays and regulatory uncertainty are threatening to dampen momentum.
