On September 12, 2025, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the National Energy Administration issued a notice on the "Action Plan for Large-Scale Construction of New-Type Energy Storage (2025–2027)," explicitly listing solid-state batteries as a key technology for development and promoting their large-scale growth through technological breakthroughs, demonstration applications, and standard establishment.
[pdf] — The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has officially approved a new American National Standard developed by the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) to enhance transparency of the solar and storage supply chain and help companies comply with U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) traceability requirements.
[pdf] The Nicosia Solar Energy Storage Hybrid Power Plant combines photovoltaic generation with advanced battery storage, solving two critical challenges in renewable energy: intermittency and grid synchronization.
[pdf] The Energy Permitting Reform Act of 2024, introduced by Senators Manchin and Barrasso, represents the most comprehensive attempt to modernize energy permitting in decades. While the bill didn’t pass in 2024, its key provisions are being carried forward and refined for the 119th Congress.
[pdf] The 1.3 million kilowatt photovoltaic facility located in Northwest China, is now connected to the national grid and also consists of a massive energy storage station with 130,000 kW/260,000 kWh capacity.
[pdf] Located in Anahim Lake, B.C., the project is set to reduce the need for diesel generation in the remote community by about 64 percent — equal to a reduction of 1.1 million litres of diesel a year — making it one of the largest off-grid solar projects in Canada.
