What is the built capacity of energy storage in the UK?
The graphic above shows the built capacity of energy storage in the UK by project size by year where 2022 deployment levels exceeded the 2021 annual installed capacity of 617MWh. The first major utility-scale battery storage project was energised in 2017 – a 50MW/25MWh project in Pelham, developed and owned by Statera Energy.
Which energy storage projects have been sold to Foresight Energy Infrastructure Partners?
In May last year, it sold two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in southern England to Foresight Energy Infrastructure Partners: Sundon BESS, a 49.5MW project north of London that will connect with National Grid’s Energy Park initiative; and Warley BESS, a 57MW project in Essex. Both sites have grid connection dates in 2024.
Which energy storage project has the highest installed capacity in 2022?
In the first quarter of 2022, the first 50MW/100MWh (50MW with a 2-hour duration) project was installed; Stonehill Energy Storage, developed by Penso Power. UK energy storage deployment had the highest annual installed capacity in 2022 at 569MW/789 MWh. Image: Solar Media Market Research.
How many energy storage sites are there in the UK?
There is now 2.4GW/2.6GWh across 161 sites of operational energy storage in the UK. 20.2GW have been approved in planning, including 33 sites of 100MW or more, meaning these projects are unlikely to be affected by any future (possible) planning changes. These projects are expected to be completed within the next 3-4 years.
How big is the UK energy storage pipeline?
The total pipeline for UK energy storage is now at 61.5GW across 1,319 sites. Image: Solar Media Market Research The graphic above shows the submitted capacity of energy storage projects by project size and by quarter; the total pipeline has now reached 61.5GW across 1,310 sites.
What is the most common size for energy storage sites?
So far, the most common size for energy storage sites has been 50MW (although sites are now being planned larger). However, battery storage capacity tends to be smaller when co-located with solar and other renewables. The planned capacity is becoming increasingly dominated by large-scale projects.
