I have been looking [and waiting] for this book for years.

And if you’re in Utility-scale battery storage, I’m going to boldly suggest that you have too.

The wait is over, as the most comprehensive compendium on utility-scale battery energy storage is finally on shelves (or it was, it’s about to sell out!)

Looking to expand your knowledge of utility-scale batteries and the evolution of solar+storage and standalone battery projects? Whether you're a developer integrating batteries into your solar projects, an engineer trying to wrap your head around which technology to spec, or a layperson trying to stay ahead of industry trends, The BESS Book: A Cell to Grid Guide to Utility-Scale Battery Energy Storage Systems is the book for you.

Hear from the book's authors, Swetha Sundaram and Drew Lebowitz, as they draw from their extensive experience in energy storage engineering to provide what I believe is likely the most complete attempt to map the battery energy storage landscape A-to-Z. With deep expertise gleaned working for leading engineering firms like DNV and RWE, they’ve crafted a comprehensive resource that covers the full lifecycle of utility-scale battery projects—from cell chemistry to financing the projects and workforce to build these plants at scale.

Discover:

Why Nico believes this is the battery storage manual every engineering department should have on-hand.
The latest advancements in lithium-ion battery technology, illustrated with real-world case studies.
The key technical and financial aspects of [nearly all] utility-scale Li-ion BESS.
Critical considerations for integrating batteries with solar and wind projects.
Essential instruction on safety, environmental concerns, and industry standards compliance.
And so, so much more

Grab your copy of The BESS Book and listen in to gain the insights you need to lead in the energy storage industry.
