Charging ahead: four factors to guide investment in battery storage
In this webcast, panelists discuss global investment trends in battery energy storage systems (BESS) and the four factors that can help investors navigate risks.
Multiple energy transitions are accelerating faster than anticipated. But their success may hinge on our ability to build a more flexible grid that is able to withstand the inherent volatility created by distributed energy resources.
