The rise of bankable BESS projects in Europe
As the renewable energy sector rapidly evolves, battery energy storage systems (BESS) are emerging as a critical pillar for decarbonization. However, with capital constraints
The BESS containers are installed on a battery storage park fully developed by Schoenergie in its role as EPC and will be used in the German government-funded SUREVIVE research project. The project investigates how grid-forming inverters and batteries can stabilize the grid under real-world conditions in the EU power network.
Meanwhile, the BESS market in Europe is set to grow faster in the coming years, although not at the levels required, the report said. In the most-likely scenario for 2025, 29.7GWh of battery storage will be installed in Europe, representing a 36% annual growth.
It also offers a 96% round trip efficiency, a 16,000 cycle life (up from 12,000 previously), and a 1,500-2,000 V range, supporting two to eight hours of storage. The system's 20-foot containers house lithium-iron phosphate cells from Envision's strategic partner, Japan-based battery manufacturer AESC. Envision's ESS solutions.
This system, designed as a 2-split containerized BESS solution, can be stacked to deliver a cumulative energy storage capacity of up to 9 MWh, according to Spinnen. A company statement on its official website highlights that the system is equipped with CATL's high-energy-density cells featuring up to 5 years of zero degradation.
