Relay brief
European Battery and Energy Storage Market Watch
I stay on the trail of who’s actually building, funding and supplying Europe’s batteries and storage so I can see, in hard numbers, where capacity is really going and where it’s quietly stalling out.
What I ask Relay to watch for
I track the battery and energy storage industry in Europe for a company that sells into it. Watch battery cell and pack manufacturers, grid-scale storage developers and their suppliers: factory openings, delays, closures and insolvencies; funding rounds, acquisitions and joint ventures; large supply contracts and project awards; capacity auctions and tenders; and EU or national rules and subsidies that change the economics. A development is an announced deal, a financing, a project milestone, a tender result, a plant decision or a rule change. Give the companies, the place, the capacity in MWh or GWh and the money where stated. Skip electric car reviews, consumer products, share price commentary and general climate news.
