WHES looks forward to meeting you at the 2026 SMM (5th) PV Energy Storage Industry Conference

Published: Aug 31, 2026 19:05

As the national unified electricity market accelerates its formation and new energy fully enters the market, the profit logic of the industry has shifted from "policy guarantee" to "market tug-of-war," with the core of competition moving from scale expansion to value creation. Against this backdrop, the value coordinate system of the PV+ESS industry is being reconstructed: installed capacity is no longer the sole yardstick; what truly matters is—how many consumption challenges has technology solved for the power system? How much quantifiable value has the solution created for users? How much full-life-cycle revenue has the service brought to power station assets?

Faced with this reconstruction, enterprises along the industry chain urgently need to find direction in cost reduction and efficiency improvement, mine value in diverse scenarios, and realize returns in electricity trading. This conference gathers core forces from government, industry, research, academia, and investment to deeply discuss key topics such as high-efficiency modules, grid-forming ESS, virtual power plants, and asset operations. Through a supply-demand matchmaking session, it will efficiently align cutting-edge technologies with project needs, helping enterprises seize opportunities in the transformation and achieve a win-win future.

WHES Technology Co., Ltd.hereby cordially invites you to gather at this pinnacle industry event. Let us join hands and forge ahead to create a bright future for the PV industry and embrace the dawn of a new era. Click now on to easily complete your attendance registration, and together witness and participate in this meaningful and far-reaching industry event, co-creating a brilliant new chapter!

BW ESS Acquires 250 MW/1,000 MWh Yanco BESS from Australian Developer ACEnergy
Global storage owner-operator BW ESS has acquired the Yanco battery energy storage system from Australian renewable energy developer ACEnergy, the companies announced on August 13, 2026. The project, located in New South Wales, is configured at 250 MW/1,000 MWh with a four-hour duration, positioning it to capture value across energy arbitrage, frequency control, and ancillary services in the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM). The transaction reflects continued international capital interest in Australian grid-scale storage assets, as the country's coal retirement timeline and renewable penetration drive urgent demand for flexible capacity. For ACEnergy, the sale represents a capital-recycling event to fund new greenfield development, while BW ESS expands its operational footprint in one of the world's fastest-growing storage markets.

U.S. utility-scale battery storage capacity has expanded at an annual average rate of 70% over the last three years, according to the Energy Information Administration's (EIA) latest generator inventory data released on August 7, 2026. By the end of 2025, the U.S. power grid had 43.6 GW of operational battery storage. Operators added another 8.3 GW during the first half of 2026, bringing total installed capacity to nearly 52 GW. Looking ahead, developers anticipate bringing an additional 54 GW online over the next two and a half years, with 14 GW slated for the second half of 2026, 26 GW in 2027, and 14 GW in 2028. The EIA notes that battery deployment continues to track closely with solar buildout, absorbing daytime generation surpluses and discharging during evening peaks.
