Italian carbon battery developer Energy Dome and Google have partnered to develop renewable energy storage infrastructure in Ireland, signing a commercial contract for a 23 MW/200 MWh BESS using Energy Dome's carbon technology. This innovative approach compresses and stores carbon for energy generation, providing long duration storage without relying on lithium or other minerals. The facility, located in County Offaly near Dublin, is expected to come online in 2028, setting a precedent for more carbon battery projects in Europe and worldwide through the Energy Dome and Google partnership.
