Berlin's urban area is supplied with energy via approx. 900 km of high voltage cable, 10,900 km of medium voltage cable and 23,900 km of low voltage cable. We use this to ensure that every part of Berlin has a secure energy supply. However, not every district has cables at all voltage levels.
Berlin-based Scale Energy has secured €2 million in seed funding to develop Europe's largest decentralized battery storage network, according to a company press release. The funding round was led by Climentum Capital, with participation from Vireo Ventures and existing investors Antler and P3A.
TotalEnergies, on the occasion of Patrick Pouyanné's participation in the Europe 2025 conference in Berlin, and in connection with the company's integrated development in Germany's electricity sector, revealed investment decisions for 6 battery storage projects with 221 MW of new storage capacity and an investment outlay of €160mn.
Energy storage, a key part of integrated electricity strategy Energy storage plays a key role in offsetting the intermittency of renewable power. Their development is therefore necessary to enable TotalEnergies to offer Clean Firm Power to its customers, i.e. the continuous, stable supply of renewable electricity.
22 home storage systems have been evaluated by the HTW Berlin, including new products from Fox ESS, Fronius, Kostal and SAX Power. March 6, 2025 22 solar energy storage systems from a total of 17 manufacturers have been evaluated by the HTW Berlin University of Applied Sciences in this year's Energy Storage Inspection.
Interested manufacturers can contact the Solar Storage Systems research group at HTW Berlin directly. The Energy Storage Inspection 2024 was developed as part of the „Perform“ project, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK).
Home energy storage refers to residential energy storage devices that store electrical energy locally for later consumption. Usually, electricity is stored in lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, controlled by intelligent software to handle charging and discharging cycles. Companies are also developing smaller flow battery technology for home use.
New additions in the 2024 Energy Storage Inspection: eight hybrid inverters and eight battery storage systems, including some from Dyness, Goodwe, Hypontech, Kostal and Pylontech. The Solar Storage Systems research group attested 16 home storage systems a high energy efficiency.
China is the main competitor of the United States in the race for the title of leader in 5G deployment. By 2024, the Middle Kingdom had installed over 1.2 million 5G base stations and already has over 600 million subscribers .
The marketing of non-5G services refers to the promotion of enhanced 4G networks that are presented as precursors or equivalents to 5G. Some mobile network operators marketed upgraded 4G technologies using terms that suggested 5G capability.
Brazil is accelerating the deployment of 5G networks after successful frequency auctions in the 3.5 GHz band. Operators like Claro, Vivo, and TIM are deploying networks in key urban areas, aiming to cover all state capitals by the end of 2024 . Residents of 27 of Brazil's most important cities will then gain access to 5G.
Major suppliers of 5G radio and core systems included Altiostar, Cisco Systems, Datang Telecom/Fiberhome, Ericsson, Huawei, Nokia, Qualcomm, Samsung, and ZTE. Huawei was estimated to hold about 70 percent of global 5G base stations by 2023.
