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.
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.
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.
In order to address the challenges in the metropolitan region, the energy company Stockholm Exergi and the power operator Polar Capacity are joining forces to build large-scale battery parks with a combined capacity of at least 100 MW.

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.
Electricity is a prerequisite for societal development and achieving climate policy goals. Sweden will consume more than twice as much electricity in the next 25 years, from the current 140 TWh to approximately 310 TWh in 2045. The most important energy source for new electricity generation capacity during this time is wind power.

When the power grid requires more energy, often at peak periods, the water is released from the upper reservoir. It flows downhill at speed to the pumped storage plant, where the force of the water turns the turbines and generates electricity, which is fed into the grid. The process is then repeated.
