FAQs about French energy storage power station integrated system
What is the biggest battery energy storage system in France?
The biggest battery energy storage system (BESS) in mainland France went into operation in late January, and will provide grid-balancing services to national transmission system operator RTE. France-headquartered multinational energy company Total was contracted by RTE for the project, which has 25MWac rated output and 25MWh of storage capacity.
What is France's biggest energy storage project?
France's installed base of grid-connected energy storage systems so far is not vast, meaning that the Dunkirk project, while modestly-sized compared to numerous projects around the world, is thought to be the biggest project in the country so far.
Why is battery storage so important in France?
Traditionally these services would be provided by fossil fuel power plants but battery storage can respond much faster and without creating harmful pollution or emissions onsite. France is in Europe's common market for FCR along with five other countries, with daily auctions designed to keep the grid operating at 50Hz.
Where is a lithium-ion battery based energy storage system built?
It has been built at the site of a former oil refinery operated and owned by Total in Dunkirk, in northern France. The lithium-ion battery energy storage system used for the project was provided by battery and energy storage provider Saft, which Total owns.
What does Harmony Energy do for France?
Harmony Energy CEO for France Andy Symonds said: “Developing and operating vital battery energy storage facilities across France, will lead to enhanced energy security, more affordable energy bills, and the decarbonization of the grid. We are excited to commence building works on our first project.”
Who provides lithium-ion battery energy storage?
The lithium-ion battery energy storage system used for the project was provided by battery and energy storage provider Saft, which Total owns. Engineering procurement and construction (EPC) duties including civil works and system integration services were provided by Omexom, which announced the project's completion in late January.
