Construction has begun on Sweden’s largest Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) undertaken by Neoen, an Independent Power Producer and Nidec, a system integrator. The project has been projected to come online in early 2025. Neoen is headquartered in Paris.
Named Isbillen Power Reserve, the 1-hour duration Battery Energy Storage System project will be the largest in Sweden and the largest in the Nordics by megawatt (MW) power. The largest by megawatt-hours energy capacity in the Nordics will be a 2-hour project in Finland that Neoen recently started building.
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.
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.
But neither were built and energized by the time RES switched on the Elektra Energy Storage Project, a 20 MW / 20 MWh project, called Sweden’s largest battery storage project at the time, in late April. And the claim by Ingrid Capacity depends on how you see things.
Gravity energy storage systems, using weights lifted and lowered by electric winches to store energy, have great potential to deliver valuable energy storage services to enable this transformation.
