Four major energy storage projects have advanced: SMA's Gigawatt Factory in Germany started production with over 60GW capacity; CBAK Energy plans 12GWh sodium-ion battery capacity for diverse energy storage applications; a 2GWh battery project began in Jinhu, Jiangsu; and a 5GWh energy storage system integration project was signed in Xuyi, Jiangsu.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Energy storage founders in Europe and China should watch SMA and CBAK’s capacity expansions as new openings for partnership or competitive threats. Your product timelines must adjust to this ramp-up or risk losing ground in rapidly scaling markets.
