Energy Vault's merger with Novus Capital Corporation II values the grid-scale energy storage provider at $1.1 billion, the company announced Thursday.

The combined company is expected to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "GWHR." Robert Piconi will lead the combined venture as chairman and CEO.

A unit of East Coast renewable power generator Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. is working on a new wind power project in Illinois.

The 108-MW Shady Oaks II wind project is a collaboration of Liberty, a part of Algonquin, and JPMorgan Chase. Construction began this spring on the wind farm to feature 22 wind turbines in Lee County, Ill.
