Utility-Scale Energy Storage
Energy giant Alstom has nailed down a 120 million Euro contract to build a pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) plant in Israel. Currently, there is 129 gigawatts of this technology installed around the globe, and, as we sit here today, …
Renewables and Energy Storage
Frequent commenter Garth writes: Remember ANY successful business that runs a supply line for their product must have storage or they face shortages and customer loss – energy is no different and storage is the answer. I just can’t explain …
Vanderbilt University Students Look At Eos Energy Storage
As promised, I just did a phone interview for three engineering majors at Vanderbilt University who are studying the target market for our client Eos Energy Storage. We discussed the various ways in which this breakthrough in zinc-air batteries could …

Eos Energy Storage Never Fails to Impress
I brought an associate to make a brief presentation to my friends at Eos Energy Storage yesterday. As I’ve mentioned, Eos represents a breakthrough in zinc-air batteries that will soon culminate in electrical storage at $160 / kilowatt-hour, about one-third …
Even Sushi Enjoys Better Storage Than Energy
I’m joining some friends in a few minutes for a sushi dinner. This reminds me of the adage about our production and consumption of energy, which, for all intents and purposes, is the only supply chain in the world without storage. …
Connecting Eos Energy Storage to Strategic Partners in India
I started my day with a predawn call to Edison, New Jersey and Mumbia, trying to connect my people at Eos Energy Storage with strategic partners in India. The breakthrough in battery chemistry/design will result in product for sale in …

Big Advancements in Electric Vehicle Batteries
A reader asks my opinion of Envia Systems‘ lithium-ion battery. I reply: If these claims are true, it’s a really important breakthrough — potentially even more significant than that of my friends at Eos Energy Storage. The number one issue …
Clean Energy Investors Want Some Level of Certainty
In my quest to understand investors’ reluctance to assert themselves in the renewable energy space, a common theme continues to emerge: uncertainty. Where no one doubts that demand for oil and coal will continue for some time, and that the …
