Bluefield obtains development rights for 20MW battery storage site
- Bluefield Solar has actually acquired the development rights for its initial standalone battery energy storage system (BESS).
The acquisition represents development rights, grid link expenses and the leasehold of land of the 20MW ready-to-build project for around ₤ 1.5 million from Shaw-Energi Ltd
Based in Liverpool, construction of the project is anticipated to start this year.
It is Bluefield's 2nd BESS project, having acquired a 45MWp solar as well as 25MWp storage site in northeast Lincolnshire in August 2021. It complies with the widening of Bluefield's required in 2020, allowing it to buy modern technologies apart from solar PV.
"Energy storage has huge growth potential in the UK as well as supplies an extremely attractive additional earnings stream, diversifying the firm's income from our bulk solar portfolio with its predictable regulated profits profile," stated John Rennocks, chairman of Bluefield Solar.
The firm just recently acquried a 47.5 MW renewables portfolio from Good Energy, while in December Bluefield Partners broadened right into the French market via a framework agreement with IDSUD Energies that is intending to deliver 25MWp of roof projects yearly for 5 years in France.
