Because of the growing importance of energy storage, Storm4 decided to spotlight six companies in the European market that are accelerating the sector. Founded in 2016 and based in Stockholm, Sweden, Nortvolt is an operator of lithium-ion battery plants intended to produce batteries for variety of solutions, including evs and battery storage.
This is why we are now building Sweden’s largest Battery Energy Storge Solution (BESS) of 10 MW, which will be located in Grums, in western Sweden. The main function of the system is to better balance the national grid networks.
However, the usage of energy storage, for example by using a battery, is not explicitly dealt with in the Swedish Electricity Act. As such, there are no explicit provisions for how energy storage is to be handled from a grid perspective.
13 February 2024 SWEDEN – The energy storages are being built in Falköping (16 MW), Karlskrona (16 MW), Katrineholm (20 MW), Mjölby (8 MW), Sandviken (20 MW), Vaggeryd (11 MW), Värnamo (20 MW) and Västerås (11 MW). A storage with a power of 20 MW correlates to what a Swedish town with 40,000 inhabitants on average consumes during peak hours.
BW Energy Storage Systems will invest about SEK 1bn in Ingrid Capacity. This investment will be used to accelerate Ingrid Capacity’s growth trajectory and to execute on 400MW of energy storage, in a strategic partnership with BW ESS.
Energy storage and grid stability are among the most important issues in the new energy world. Energy storage systems have the potential to play a key role in integrating renewable energy into the power grid. However, the usage of energy storage, for example by using a battery, is not explicitly dealt with in the Swedish Electricity Act.
