Australia''s top electricity and gas retailer Origin Energy said its green transition was proving slower and more costly than expected, while flagging its coal plant could run beyond 2027.
The global energy storage market is poised to hit new heights yet again in 2025. Despite policy changes and uncertainty in the world''s two largest markets, the US and China, the sector continues to grow as developers
This relative policy stability positions energy storage for recovery in the second half of 2025. The market''s "wait-and-see" approach during policy uncertainty created pent-up demand for investment opportunities.
Potentia Energy, a joint venture co-owned by Enel Green Power and INPEX, has secured the first environmental approval for a grid-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) under South Australia''s new Hydrogen and Renewable Energy (HRE) Act.

Since introduced in 2022, policy mandates requiring solar and wind energy projects to include energy storage systems have been crucial in the acceleration of storage deployment in China.
For energy storage, the new Chinese policy emphasized the need to remove energy storage as a prerequisite for renewable energy project grid connection, a requirement that has been a major driver for battery build. Nonetheless, BNEF still expects strong demand for batteries, as the policy doesn’t explicitly require mandates to stop.
How energy storage could solve the growing US power crisis The opportunity is clear: with the right policy reforms, revenue mechanisms, and investment frameworks, energy storage can deliver near-term reliability, long-term resilience, and economic returns.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are currently exempt from the charges and Voltwise's head of German operations, Thorsten Klöpper, is suggesting a three-stage system which takes account of battery-related grid benefits.
Nonetheless, BNEF still expects strong demand for batteries, as the policy doesn’t explicitly require mandates to stop. Since the policy announcement, some provinces across China have continued to announce mandates stipulating that new solar and wind projects must be paired with batteries.
