Description
Description | ESS has signed a letter of intent with Alsym Energy to add 8.5 GWh of sodium-ion battery cells and modules to its energy storage portfolio. This expansion targets short- and medium-duration battery storage applications, complementing ESS's existing iron flow systems designed for long-duration storage. The sodium-ion batteries offer a safer, non-flammable alternative to lithium-ion, with simpler installation requirements and lower project costs, aiming to cover a wider range of grid needs from quick-response to longer energy shifting. |
