ESB Networks has announced that Ireland''s electricity grid now has 1GW of energy storage available from different energy storage assets. This figure includes 731.5MW of battery energy storage system (BESS) projects and 292MW from Turlough Hill pumped storage power station – which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
The location of the BESS. Image: RWE. Germany-headquartered utility and independent power producer (IPP) RWE will build a 7.5MW/11MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in the Netherlands with grid-forming inertia capabilities.
Grid-scale batteries store larger amounts of energy that can be used as a flexible resource to power wider areas when needed. By discharging stored energy when needed, a BESS is a highly flexible asset that balances energy demand and generation. Types of energy storage. Taking a step back, energy storage comes in three main forms:
