Ameresco And Envision Energy To Deploy 624MWh UK BESS For Atlantic Green

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Energy Storage News.

These three paragraphs describe the project.

Developer-operator Atlantic Green has enlisted system integrator Ameresco and clean energy manufacturer Envision Energy for a 300MW/624MWh BESS project in the UK.

The Cellarhead battery energy storage system (BESS) project will be connected to National Grid’s Cellarhead substation in the West Midlands and have a maximum energy capacity of 624MWh. Construction is expected to begin this year, with final connection to the grid slated for the end of 2026.

The deal between the parties is worth £196.5 million (US$250 million). Ameresco will build the project via an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) and operation & maintenance (O&M) agreement while Envision Energy will supply the BESS units.

Note.

1. It is another battery, that can provide full power for two hours.
2. It is another battery, that is located near to one of National Grid’s substations.

As batteries seem to be made by different companies, it looks to me, that National Grid are possibly checking out, which batteries are best.
