The new regulations, set to take effect in 2026, introduce updated tariffs, encourage battery storage, and allow local electricity trading.
This report defines and evaluates cost and performance parameters of six battery energy storage technologies (BESS) (lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, redox flow batteries, sodium
Executive Summary In this work we describe the development of cost and performance projections for utility-scale lithium-ion battery systems, with a focus on 4-hour duration
Office buildings, which were the second-most common commercial building type, accounted for the largest share of consumption for several end uses, including ventilation, office equipment, and computing. Space heating accounted for the
Estimated cell manufacturing cost uses the BNEF BattMan Cost Model, adjusting LFP cathode prices with ICC cathode spot prices. The cost here refers to manufacturing cost which is
Energy storage system costs for four-hour duration systems exceed $300/kWh for the first time since 2017. Rising raw material prices, particularly for lithium and nickel, contribute to increased energy storage costs. Fixed operation and
Electricity and natural gas were the main energy sources in U.S. commercial buildings in 2018 Electricity accounted for 60% and natural gas for 34% of total energy use in
Introduction Battery energy storage presents a USD 24 billion investment opportunity in the United States and Canada through 2025. More than half of US states have adopted renewable energy
Reversing the slow climb of energy costs, starts with gaining greater awareness of how your building uses energy. In this article, we will discuss the average commercial building energy consumption per square foot, and help you
The Switzerland solar energy market size was valued at 0.004 Thousand Gigawatt in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group estimates the market to reach 0.048 Thousand Gigawatt by
Statement on the Annual Energy Outlook and EIA''s plan to enhance long-term modeling capabilities At the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), a core aspect of our mission is
This article provides an analysis of energy storage cost and key factors to consider. It discusses the importance of energy storage costs in the context of renewable energy systems and explores different types of energy storage
Authors and Acknowledgements Renewable Energy Guidance for Industry was developed for the US Department of Energy''s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) as part
To separate the total cost into energy and power components, we used the bottom-up cost model from Feldman et al. (2021) to estimate current costs for battery storage with storage durations
This work aims to: 1) provide a detailed analysis of the all-in costs for energy storage technologies, from basic components to connecting the system to the grid; 2) update and

The Swiss Federal Council has adopted a second set of ordinances to implement the Federal Act on a Secure Electricity Supply from Renewable Energy Sources. The new regulations, set to take effect on Jan. 1, 2026, cover energy communities and minimum remuneration.
Switzerland installed approximately 1.78 GW of new PV capacity in 2024, according to provisional figures from Swissolar. This marked an increase from 1.64 GW in 2023 and 1.08 GW in 2022, making 2024 a record year for new installations.
The annual TSO report on balancing in Switzerland is prepared according to Article 60 of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/2195 establishing a guideline on electricity balancing, referred to in short as «energy balancing guideline» (EB GL).
With the Swiss market liberalisation beginning of 2009, Swissgrid in the role as transmission system operator (TSO) and balancing group coordinator receives several energy data aggregations.
Distribution system operators can now set maximum feed-in power at the connection point, reducing delays in connecting solar systems and limiting grid expansions. Solar system operators can store excess power in batteries or electric vehicles. Any imposed limitation must be compensated for if it results in more than a 3% annual yield loss.
