Samsung SDI wins 1 GWh US energy storage deal

Samsung SDI has secured a 1-gigawatt-hour energy storage system supply deal with US power developer Alpha Omega Power, bringing their combined contracts to 1.5 GWh as the Korean battery maker expands its North American business. The latest agreement, signed through Samsung SDI's Michigan-based subsidiary, follows an initial deal made last year, the company said Monday. The StarPlus Energy plant in Kokomo, Indiana, will produce the battery cells and modules, with deliveries scheduled by year-end.
