-
Greenvolt has opened Poland’s 800MWh Turośń Kościelna battery storage facility. The 200MW transmission-connected asset combines four-hour duration, capacity market revenues, and commercial optimisation by Entrix.
-
Axpo and Zelestra have structured long term support for storage. Their ten year physical toll covers a planned 207MW/830MWh system in Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
-
Alcemi has entered Romania through two substantial battery storage projects. The acquisition coincides with Slovakia commissioning its largest operational BESS at a former coal station.
-
Two European battery projects have entered construction across major markets. RWE is developing 470MWh at Hambach, while Kallista Energy is progressing a 386MWh system in northern France.
-
National Highways completed solar and storage upgrades across sixteen sites. The programme combines 825kW of photovoltaics with batteries, heat pumps, and upgraded building systems.
-
Spain has advanced 260MW of battery storage through permitting decisions. Seven projects across several regions combine standalone systems with solar and wind hybridisation.
-
Two European battery projects will add 856MWh of storage capacity. RWE has started construction in Germany, while Kallista Energy and Envision Energy are advancing a large French installation.
-
Seven long-duration storage prototypes have now completed government-backed demonstration programmes. Projects covered thermal batteries, hydrogen storage, flow batteries, high-density hydro, pumped thermal storage, and compressed-air systems.
-
Battery storage now supports rapid charging through a constrained connection. Osprey’s Abergavenny installation combines three 75kW chargers with local storage and monitoring, testing a model for sites where reinforcement is slow or uneconomic.
-
Dinorwig’s first two generating units will undergo full replacement works. GE Vernova will supply new 315MW pump-turbines, motor-generators, controls, and auxiliary electrical systems as First Hydro extends the Welsh plant’s operating life.
