Swathes of energy storage projects including battery storage and pumped hydro have been approved by the regulator in Greece, as the country prepares for a big battery storage auction.
Hitachi Energy has installed a 6.25MW/7.5MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in the Faroe Islands for utility SEV, with substantial benefits to a connected wind farm.
Huge wind power deployments and the limitations of the existing fleet of pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) are driving the battery storage market in Finland, a local system integrator said.
