Sweden’s largest energy storage investment, totaling 211 MW, goes live, combining 14 sites. 14 large-scale battery storage systems (BESS) have come online in Sweden to deploy 211 MW / 211 MWh into the region.
In several countries near Sweden, the expansion of energy storage has therefore already been underway for some time. Ingrid Capacity now ensures that Sweden catches up,” says Karin Lindberg Salevid, Chief Operations Officer of Ingrid Capacity.
As a next step, Ingrid Capacity is about to commence the construction of another 13 new battery storage facilities in Sweden by the end of 2024, with a capacity of 196MW/196MWh, further strengthening the Swedish electricity grid in the SE3 and SE4 price areas.
Together, this is a historic expansion of energy storage in Sweden. Energy storage allows us to store electricity when demand is low, and then reinsert it into the system when demand is high. In order for electrification to take place in a cost-efficient manner, a focus on optimized solutions is required.
