Where is Estonia's largest battery storage facility located?
The flagship battery storage project commenced operations on February 1, only days before cutting ties with the Russian power grid. Estonian state-owned energy company Eesti Energia has inaugurated the nation’s largest battery energy storage facility at the Auvere industrial complex in Ida-Viru County.
How will a battery energy storage park work in Estonia?
The battery energy storage park and its substation will be connected to the electricity transmission network using a 330kV AC underground cable, marking a first in Estonia. Baltic Storage Platform confirmed that the BESS will seek to ensure the stability and resilience of the Estonian electricity grid.
Why is energy storage important for Estonia?
Energy storage is also vital for meeting Estonia’s goal of sourcing all its electricity from renewable sources by . The country’s climate minister, Yoko Alender, emphasised the role of storage systems in this transition, saying they would help ensure a “clean, reliable and affordable energy future” for Estonia.
How has the transition to a 15-minute balancing period impacted Estonia's energy storage?
State-owned energy company Eesti Energi management board member Kristjan Kuhi recently highlighted to Energy-Storage.news Premium that the transition to a 15-minute balancing period and the desynchronisation of the Baltic electricity system from the Russian grid have spurred growth in Estonia’s energy storage sector.
Who delivered the Eesti Energia project?
The project was delivered by energy solutions system integrator Diotech Group, which won Eesti Energia’s international tender in . It was supplied with battery technology from LG Energy Solution. Installation and connection work were carried out by Enefit Solutions.
