SSE Renewables has taken a Final Investment Decision to proceed with, and entered into contracts to deliver, its second battery energy storage system (BESS). The 150MW project is located at the site of SSE’s former Ferrybridge coal-fired power station in West Yorkshire, England.
4th September 2023 – Clearstone Energy is seeking planning consent for a new 400MW / 800MWh Battery Energy Storage System (“BESS”) project in Devon.
SSE Renewables has almost 2GW of battery and solar projects currently in development or under construction. These technologies are key to helping SSE deliver on its Net Zero Acceleration Programme to provide the green energy we need to decarbonise. By building out more battery storage, we can get more renewable power onto the Grid.
For decades the Ferrybridge coal-fired power station was a prominent feature of the West Yorkshire landscape, before being decommissioned by SSE in 2016. Now SSE Renewables’ plans to build a new 150MW battery storage project at Ferrybridge will provide flexible generation for Britain’s national grid and a new era for the site.
Located next to the former Ferrybridge coal power station, this important new project demonstrates clearly the transition to net zero while supporting new green jobs. SSE Renewables has almost 2GW of battery and solar projects currently in development or under construction.
