Is this Finland's largest battery energy storage system?
Swedish flexible assets developer and optimizer Ingrid Capacity has joined hands with SEB Nordic Energy’s portfolio company Locus Energy to develop what is claimed to be Finland’s largest and one of the Nordics’ largest battery energy storage systems (BESS). The 70 MW/140 MWh BESS project will be located in Nivala, northern Finland.
What is the future of energy storage in Finland?
Reserve markets are currently driving the demand for energy storage systems. Legislative changes have improved prospects for some energy storages. Mainly battery storage and thermal energy storages have been deployed so far. The share of renewable energy sources is growing rapidly in Finland.
Is Ingrid developing a battery energy storage system?
Ingrid is developing the battery energy storage system (BESS) project in partnership with investor SEB Nordic Energy portfolio company Locus Energy for a commercial operation date (COD) in . The firm said it the project in Nivala, in the Northern Ostrobothnia region of Finland, is the largest ready-to-build (RTB) BESS in Finland.
Are energy storage systems a solution to Finland's energy transition?
Energy storage systems offer a solution. “This groundbreaking is an important moment for Finland’s energy transition and a concrete step toward a more flexible, resilient, and decarbonized energy system,” said Jussi Jyrinsalo, Senior Vice President at Fingrid.
Which energy storage technologies are being commissioned in Finland?
Currently, utility-scale energy storage technologies that have been commissioned in Finland are limited to BESS (lithium-ion batteries) and TES, mainly TTES and Cavern Thermal Energy Storages (CTES) connected to DH systems.
Is energy storage legal in Finland?
Like the energy storage market, legislation related to energy storage is still developing in Finland. The two are intertwined as who is allowed to own and operate energy storages will define the business models of the storages. A major barrier to the implementation of ESS was removed when the issue of double taxation was solved.
