In January 2023, the United States Department of Energy shared its plans to increase electric vehicle (EV) battery production capacity in North America from 55 Gigawatt-hours per year as of 2021 to nearly 1,000 GWh per year by 2030. Here is how and why they plan to do it:https://lnkd.in/gWs7zMgM

🌐 Industry Update: U.S. DOE's Major Funding for Battery Manufacturing Continues to Build On-Shore Capacity In a significant move for the energy storage sector, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced $3.5 billion earmarked to further boost battery domestic manufacturing capacity. This development, as reported on by Energy Storage News, marks a pivotal step in enhancing national energy infrastructure. Leading the industry in this endeavor, KORE Power stands out with its efforts in expanding the United States' battery manufacturing capacity. This DOE action underlines the growing importance and investment in sustainable energy solutions, where companies like KORE Power are playing a crucial role. For further understanding of the DOE's funding and its impact on the energy storage landscape, read the full article below. #EnergyStorage #BatteryManufacturing #KOREPower #SustainableEnergy

🔋📈🌎In this week's rant, Jeff is discussing another theory on how the usage of grid-scale batteries could be increasing our carbon emissions. Read more: https://hubs.li/Q02vnVpd0 #Batteries #CarbonEmissions

Did you know that the UK is set to build Europe's first and largest lithium refinery in Teesside, England, to meet the increasing demand for lithium, a crucial component in electric vehicle (EV) batteries? 🔋🔌 This move is seen as essential to support the growth of EVs and reduce carbon emissions in the UK and Europe. 👏 #EV #EVManufacturers #EVBatteries

They need to do more for the adoption of storage and make it more affordable for the average consumer. With the strain that grid power faces, utilities should work with and not against distributed generation(rooftop solar).

Move has recently completed some simulations of the energy and emissions performance of our electric drive trailer as part of a roughly 200 tonne quad combination truck. We're seeing the ability to reduce energy consumption by up to 46% and an emissions reduction of up to 53% dependent on the electricity cost and the electricity greenhouse gas coefficient. What's better again is that we are prime mover agnostic, it works standalone with any prime mover type, diesel, EV, hydrogen, and it can augment the GCM capability and the range for an EV.

It is exciting to see the growing importance of battery energy storage systems in our journey towards decarbonization. China's lithium-ion battery industry has experienced substantial growth in the first half of this year. With a production capacity exceeding 400 gigawatt-hours, a 43% increase from the previous year, and a total revenue of $82.22 billion, it is evident that the industry is thriving. The data released by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) also indicates a remarkable 69% increase in China's lithium-ion battery exports in H1 of 2023 compared to the previous year. This article sheds light on the significant developments within our industry and showcases the global impact of battery energy storage.

"EV Battery Factory Will Require So Much Energy It Needs A Coal Plant To Power It" - What a clickbaity headline 🙄 A new EV battery factory in Kansas is using so much energy that the retirement of a coal plant has been delayed to keep up with the demand. A $4 billion investment by Panasonic, the factory is a part of the push to ramp up battery production in North America, but it is hard to ignore the massive energy needs of certain types of manufacturing. The factory will require between 200 and 250 megawatts of electricity to operate - that's roughly the energy needed for a small city! As more factories are built in the U.S. to supply EV manufacturers, demand for power is going to be driven up even faster. We are going to be in for a wild ride over the next few decades when it comes to energy demand. https://lnkd.in/g5RHtXvu
