Duke Energy has disconnected CATL industrial-scale energy storage batteries from North Carolina Marine Corps base Camp Lejeune due to concerns about its ties to China's ruling Communist Party. The company is working to address these questions as lawmakers raise alarms about potential security threats posed by Chinese storage batteries, particularly in light of U.S. renewable energy capacity being increasingly reliant on Chinese suppliers. Experts warn of vulnerabilities in the use of Chinese storage batteries, which require frequent remote operation and telecommunications equipment connected to the batteries.
