Intersolar 2025 - Critical Technical & Techno-Commercial Elements in BESS Contracts
We are excited to announce that our presentation at the recent Intersolar25 conference was a resounding success! We’d like to extend our gratitude to everyone who attended and engaged with us.

A Comprehensive Approach to FAT and SAT for BESS
The battery energy storage system (BESS) market is booming. Lithium production is expected to increase five times by 20301 and, right now, battery technology is evolving by leaps and bounds. The day-to-day work of BESS project development is revealing, however, that standards and guidelines are falling behind on multiple fronts – safety and performance testing […]

Exploding thoughts: a brief take on a BESS explosion - The Beijing, China case
Those whom I have worked with in the past know that I am an advocate for explosion safety and prevention in BESS during the design, construction and in operational stages. I recently got asked if an explosion was less likely to happen than a fire. My gut feeling is that it might be. Still, I […]

Standardise: View your BESS with Standard eyes
In our previous blog article, we discussed what tests should be applied to Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) during factory acceptance tests (FATs) and site acceptance tests (SATs). But how do we assess a BESS from a technology and configuration standpoint to ensure that it matches current sector parameters and features in terms of performance […]

Introduction to Industry Best Practice for Battery Performance Warranties
Battery Energy Storage Systems have seen increasing volumes of deployment largely due to decreasing system costs, extended warranties and new markets for BESS services, even for longer duration systems above four hours.
