Hover Energy has recently garnered recognition by receiving three prestigious 2025 Power Technology Excellence Awards, solidifying its position as a leader in intelligent microgrids and distributed renewable energy solutions. This achievement recognizes the company’s effort and proven success in promoting forward‐thinking technologies that improve energy efficiency and sustainability.
In the understandably fast-changing world of energy storage, 2023 has been a huge breakthrough year for Trina Storage. Most recently in April, the company joined with FlexGen Power Systems. Together, they provided the largest 371MWh battery energy storage system in Houston, Texas. This project is a great example of Trina Storage’s dedication to expanding the breadth of their solutions in the energy transition.
Expanded Partnership with Lightshift Energy
Improving local supply chains just made Trina Storage’s partnership with Lightshift Energy even more valuable. Collectively, they hope to deploy more than 1GWh of grid-scale energy storage projects throughout the United States. This exciting partnership is an important step toward quickly deploying distribution-connected battery fleets. It’s a tremendous boost not only flexibility but reliability as well for our electrical distribution networks.
Together, we’re meeting an increasing global energy needs. We hope that customers are able to experience greater energy reliability and long-term cost savings. This partnership not only reinforces Trina Storage’s commitment to innovation but signifies a strategic alignment with Lightshift Energy’s goals.
“We are proud to continue our work alongside Trina Storage on projects that advance our strategy and reflect our continued focus on delivering solutions that strengthen grid resilience, address load growth, and provide consistent, high-quality performance for the customers and communities we serve.” – [no specific source]
The firms have worked together on four other projects in Groton, Holden and Paxton, Massachusetts, since 2024. These projects have laid a foundation for their ongoing partnership and demonstrate the effectiveness of their combined efforts in advancing energy storage technologies.
Commitment to Sustainable Solutions
With these continued investments and efforts, Trina Storage is committed to providing communities across the United States with resilient and flexible energy storage solutions. Their new partnership with Lightshift Energy is a testament to this commitment. Collectively, they take on billion-dollar complex projects that help to modernize and expand energy distribution networks.
Doug Alderton of Trina Storage expressed enthusiasm about the partnership’s progress, stating, “We are pleased to continue our collaboration with Lightshift through this significant milestone. Our earlier joint projects demonstrate what our strong partnership can accomplish under demanding conditions.”
By making distribution-connected battery fleets the center of attention, it points to scalability and adaptability as keys to meeting future energy demands. Both companies are looking to build a wider, more resilient grid infrastructure capable of supporting growing energy demands in cities and communities nationwide.
Future Outlook
As Hover Energy continues to lead in technological advancements in renewable energy, Trina Storage and Lightshift Energy are poised to make significant impacts in the energy storage sector. Their deepened collaboration lays the groundwork for a long-term commitment to energy projects at a grid-scale that are efficient, sustainable, and future-forward.
