Batteries Moving Beyond 2‑Hour Limits: The Next Frontier

Date:2025-06-10

As grid-scale energy storage expands, industry leaders are debating how to go beyond standard 2-hour batteries.
 
1\ Medium-duration systems: Needed to bridge the gap during extended renewable lulls and peaks 
 
2\ Tech maturation: Advances in battery chemistries and hybrid designs make longer durations viable .
 
3\ Policy & markets: New revenue models—like time-shifting services and grid services—are critical for long-duration economics 
 
4\ Cost & deployment momentum: With utility-scale projects scaling up, larger and longer-duration batteries are becoming attractive 
 
 
Why it matters:
Medium-duration storage enables deeper renewable integration and enhances grid resilience—paving the way for real-world decarbonization.
 
We warmly invite professionals from across the energy sector to join us at the ASEAN Battery & Energy Storage Expo 2026 and shape the future of energy together.
