The decision also aligns with accelerating global trends in grid modernization and renewable energy integration. In 2024, global grid investment surged, driven by programs such as the U.S. Department of Energy’s $10.5 billion GRIP initiative and the European Union’s €584 billion grid upgrade plan. Countries including Brazil, Colombia, and Indonesia have been actively advancing digital grid development, where smart metering and energy storage are seen as key pillars for future energy systems.
Clou, a specialist in smart grid and energy storage solutions, has been steadily expanding its international presence. In 2024, it delivered approximately 1.4GWh of energy storage systems and secured new orders totaling 2.4GWh. Its latest Aqua-C2.5 liquid-cooled storage system has been deployed in commercial projects in the Americas and Chile, reinforcing the company’s transition from equipment supplier to full-service energy storage system integrator.
