Britain could get a swathe of giant so-called "water batteries" in the coming years, under a new scheme to boost investment into clean energy storage. Ministers have given the green light to plans which make it less risky to develop and invest in pumped storage hydropower, a way of storing energy using reservoirs.
Launched by energy supplier Bulb''s co-founder Amit Gudka in early 2021, Field – initially called Virmati Energy – is focusing on developing a portfolio of BESS assets in the UK. Having recently expanded its senior team, Field is aiming to reach 1.3GW of operational battery storage assets in the UK by 2024.
Field will finance, build and operate the renewable energy infrastructure we need to reach net zero — starting with battery storage.

Field, the battery storage company, has raised £77m of investment to rapidly build out renewables infrastructure across the UK. Against the backdrop of soaring energy prices and growing uncertainty around energy security, this will provide much-needed progress towards creating a greener, more reliable grid. We believe TEEC''s debt
That got the team here thinking about all the different roles available at Field. Energy storage is a fast growing and exciting industry with a broader range of career opportunities than you might expect. From civil engineering to data science, there are roles to suit a range of skills, interests and personalities.
Battery storage startup Field has secured a pipeline of 160MW of battery storage sites in the UK, and begun construction of its first 20MW site in Oldham, England. The company – originally called Virmati Energy – was launched at the beginning of 2021 by Amit Gudka, co-founder of independent renewable energy retailer Bulb, which has more
Battery energy storage company Field has acquired another asset, bringing its total pipeline to 775MW/1,510MWh after just over a year of operation. The latest acquisition is a 20MW/40MWh battery site in Newport, South Wales.
UK energy storage developer Field, has secured a £100 million (US$128 million) fundraising round for expansion according to Sky News. The firm, set up by the co-founder of utility Bulb, Amit Gudka, after its collapse in 2021, secured the capital from DIF Capital Partners, a Dutch infrastructure investor.
Battery energy storage systems are game-changers in the transition to renewable energy, but also relatively new to the renewable energy space. We''ve only just begun to scratch the surface on energy storage systems, so stay tuned for the next instalment of the series: a deep-dive into how these battery storage systems actually power up the UK.
Field has secured a pipeline of 160MW of battery storage sites in the UK, and begun construction of the first of these, the 20MW Oldham site. The company – originally called Virmati Energy – was launched at the beginning of 2021 by Bulb co-founder Amit Gudka. In its first six months it has raised £10 million in pre-seed capital and Series A funding, and is set to

Battery energy storage system (BESS) developer Field has announced that it has acquired the Hartmoor BESS from Clearstone Energy. The 200MW/800MWh project, set to be located on the outskirts of Hartlepool in the north east of England, was granted planning consent in 2023.
The company is aiming to have 1GWp of solar and 2GWh of energy storage in the Netherlands by 2028, alongside EV charging points via subsidiary PowerGo. The solar and storage project in Wannepervee combines 28MWp of solar with a 52MWh BESS. It is developing a 12MWh project near another of its solar PV plants, in Emmen.
We hear from Chris Wickins, technical director at UK-based battery storage developer-operator Field about how the grid interconnection question and market mechanisms are developing in Europe''s most advanced energy storage market.

The Energy Security and Resiliency model identified five mission-critical areas and several individual mission-critical buildings at Fort Campbell and analyzed two main options: (1) a centralized electrical generator with microgrid capability, solar PV generation and battery energy storage system, and fuel storage tanks, and (2) decentralized
BESS Singapore. Of the 11 ASEAN members, Singapore is taking the lead in the battery energy storage systems (BESS) space. Earlier this year, the city-state launched the region''s largest battery energy storage system (BESS). Construction of the 285MWh giant container-like battery system was built in just six months, becoming the fastest BESS of its
The RSA Electrical and Thermal Energy Security model analyzes each mission-critical building for electric and thermal energy requirements and existing resources such as on-site generators, on-site boilers, and fuel storage tanks and provides four options for electric and ten options for thermal energy systems.
