The UK had its busiest month of the year so far in July for large-scale BESS project planning consents, with over 5GW/10GWh approved.

Halfway through 2018 and large-scale battery storage in the UK has reached over 450MW installed capacity, with around 250MW being completed this year alone. This is made up of projects bigger than 1MW, including larger behind the meter projects that have begun to emerge.
