ABO Wind commissions 50-MW battery in Northern Ireland

• German renewables designer ABO Wind AG (ETR: AB9) has actually attached a 50-MW/25MWh battery storage space facility to the power grid in the village of Kells, Northern Ireland.

The power storage plant is had by the energy storage fund of Swiss fund supervisor SUSI Partners which acquired the project from ABO Wind a year earlier.

The German programmer planned as well as constructed the facility and also will take control of the technological and commercial operational management of the battery.

The battery system was supplied by Nidec ASI and boasts a feedback time of less than 150 nanoseconds, ABO Wind said on Wednesday.

The project is ABO Wind's initial stand-alone battery system to be commissioned. This year, the company prepares to construct 3 even more stand-alone battery plants in Germany for which it has actually currently gotten construction licenses. Extra similar projects in other nations are planned as the company anticipates the energy storage space market to stay dynamic versus the background of ambitious climate goals.
