Battery technology is scaling on two fronts: cell manufacturing for vehicle and stationary applications, and grid-scale energy storage.
On the manufacturing side, we recruit for the companies building lithium-ion cell production facilities in the UK and Europe.
Grid-scale battery storage is its own discipline.
The crossover between battery storage and grid/energy systems is significant.
Europe's battery cell manufacturing ambitions are translating into factories. From AESC and Samsung SDI in the UK to Northvolt and ACC on the continent, the race is on to build domestic cell production capacity.
Battery management systems — the electronics, firmware, and algorithms that monitor and control battery performance, safety, and longevity — are a critical and increasingly specialised engineering discipline.
Grid-scale battery storage is one of the UK's fastest-growing energy sub-sectors. The combination of revenue from frequency response, balancing markets, and wholesale trading has made battery storage projects commercially viable at scale.
