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.
14 large-scale battery storage systems (BESS) have come online in Sweden to deploy 211 MW / 211 MWh into the region. Developer and optimiser Ingrid Capacity and energy storage owner-operator BW ESS have been working in partnership to deliver 14 large-scale BESS projects throughout Sweden’s grid, situated in electricity price areas SE3 and SE4.
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.
BW Energy Storage Systems will invest about SEK 1bn in Ingrid Capacity. This investment will be used to accelerate Ingrid Capacity’s growth trajectory and to execute on 400MW of energy storage, in a strategic partnership with BW ESS.
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.
