In May last year, it sold two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in southern England to Foresight Energy Infrastructure Partners: Sundon BESS, a 49.5MW project north of London that will connect with National Grid’s Energy Park initiative; and Warley BESS, a 57MW project in Essex. Both sites have grid connection dates in 2024.
Long Duration Electricity Storage investment support scheme will boost investor confidence and unlock billions in funding for vital projects. The UK is a step closer to energy independence as the government launches a new scheme to help build energy storage infrastructure.
UK solar and battery developer Renewable Connections and project partner European Energy UKsold two co-located solar and battery storage projects based in Scotland – one at Strathruddie Farm and one at Montreathmont Moor – with an aggregate combined capacity of 121MWdc (67MWac) in April last year.
Energy storage developer Eku Energy is building two UK battery storage projects – with a combined capacity of 130MWh – in Basildon, Essex and Loudwater, Buckinghamshire. Both projects are expected to be commercially operational by the end of 2024.
Earlier in 2023, in what is described at the time as the “largest project finance facility for battery storage projects to be arranged in Europe”, Zenobē secured a £235 million long-term debt facility to fund two grid-scale, transmission connected battery storage assets totalling 400 MW / 800 MWh in Scotland.
In January 2022, Amp Energy revealed plans for what it described as Europe’s “two biggest battery storage facilities” in central Scotland. The 800 MW battery portfolio, called the ‘Scottish Green Battery Complex’, will comprise two 400MW battery facilities – in Hunterston and Kincardine – and provide 800MWh of energy storage capacity.
