In May 2024, Southern Grid commissioned a 10 MWh sodium-ion battery energy storage station in Nanning, Guangxi province, the first large-scale sodium-ion battery energy storage station in China. The energy storage station can store 100,000 kWh of electricity on a single charge, which can meet the needs of around 12,000 households for a day.
It can store 800,000 kWh of electricity per day, which can be used by 270,000 households. China's first large-scale lithium-sodium hybrid energy storage station has been put into operation, capable of powering hundreds of thousands of homes, as sodium-ion batteries are more widely adopted.

The lithium-sodium hybrid technology enables more stable integration of large-scale renewables into the power grid and supports future participation in electricity market trading," Wu Bin, deputy manager of the Baochi Energy Storage Station project, was quoted by CCTV News as saying.
The energy storage station covers an area of about 50 mu (33,333 square meters) and has more than 150 battery compartments and boost-converter compartments with a maximum instantaneous output capacity of 200 MW.
In 2026, it is planned to launch a high-tech gigafactory for the production of lithium-ion batteries for electric transport and energy sector in the innovation cluster (New Moscow).
Russian nuclear energy giant Rosatom has acquired a 49% stake in Enertech International, a South Korean lithium-ion battery specialist, and has announced plans to build a gigafactory at an unspecified location in Russia. The start of production is scheduled for 2025.
“Industrial lithium production in the country will begin in 2030,” the ministry stated. President Vladimir Putin said last month that Russia should speed up its plans to mine lithium deposits. Demand for lithium has surged in recent years as Russian companies work on the mass production of lithium batteries and electric vehicles.
In 2023, Russia mined only 27 tons of lithium as a byproduct at an emerald deposit in the Ural Mountains. Kolmozerskoye, which contains one-quarter of Russia's known lithium reserves, is operated by Polar Lithium, a joint venture between Russian metals giant Nornickel and the state-owned nuclear energy firm Rosatom.
Russia plans to produce at least 60,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate in 2030, the natural resources ministry said on Monday, as Moscow seeks to reduce its dependency on imports and boost production of high-capacity electric batteries.
Lithium, a metal essential for electric vehicle production, is included on the list of 50 minerals deemed critical by the U.S. Geological Survey. Russia reported having 3.5 million tons of lithium oxide reserves. The U.S. Geological Survey estimated Russia's lithium reserves at about 1 million tons in 2024, the world's 14th largest.
The start of production is scheduled for 2025. Russian state-owned Rosatom State Nuclear Energy (Rosatom) has acquired a 49% stake in South Korea-based lithium-ion battery manufacturer Enertech International.

Wind power generation is estimated to grow substantially in the future in Finland. Energy storage may provide the flexibility needed in the energy transition. Reserve markets are currently driving the demand for energy storage systems. Legislative changes have improved prospects for some energy storages.
However, the energy system is still producing electricity to the national grid and DH to the Lempäälä area, while the BESSs participate in Fingrid's market for balancing the grid . Like the energy storage market, legislation related to energy storage is still developing in Finland.
Currently, utility-scale energy storage technologies that have been commissioned in Finland are limited to BESS (lithium-ion batteries) and TES, mainly TTES and Cavern Thermal Energy Storages (CTES) connected to DH systems.
Energy storage systems offer a solution. “This groundbreaking is an important moment for Finland's energy transition and a concrete step toward a more flexible, resilient, and decarbonized energy system,” said Jussi Jyrinsalo, Senior Vice President at Fingrid.

Power supply systems for cell phone base stations using hydrogen energy storage, fuel cells or hydrogen-burning generators, and a backup generator could offer an improvement over current power supply systems.
Hydrogen acts as an energy carrier, similar to electricity, and is not a primary energy source. It can be used to store, transport, and supply energy and is considered fossil-free if produced with renewable electricity from sources such as solar, wind, hydro, or nuclear power.
By combining fossil-free hydrogen, fuel cells, solar panels, and batteries, this innovative solution sets a new standard for ensuring connectivity during prolonged power outages. Today, mobile base stations primarily rely on electricity from the power grid, with batteries and diesel generators providing backup.
Key collaborators include Euromekanik, PowerCell, Polarium, and Soltech. The installation and testing phase will continue until December 2025, focusing on evaluating results, cost efficiency, and future scalability. Hydrogen acts as an energy carrier, similar to electricity, and is not a primary energy source.
Introduction Access to reliable sources of electricity and hydrogen, as energy carriers or feedstock, is essential for sectors with low flexibility and in industries that favour baseload operation to boost production and profitability.
In this case, electricity is used for hydrogen generation via high pressure alkaline water electrolysers at 40 bar and is then stored in onsite man-made hydrogen caverns at an operating pressure of 60–200 bar via hydrogen compressors ( Michalski et al., 2017 ).
55 €/MWh baseload electricity or hydrogen is achievable on all continents by 2030. For 7% WACC, costs at the best sites could further decline to 30–40 €/MWh by 2050. Flexible electrolysers decrease curtailment to below 10% in most parts of the world. Batteries have no significant role in cost-optimised onsite baseload hydrogen supply.
