DTEK pilots energy storage space in Ukraine
- First lithium-ion system has been launched at the Zaporizhzhya power plant in the city of Energodar
DTEK has actually formally launched the very first lithium-ion energy storage system in Ukraine.
The 1MW/2.25 megawatt-hour pilot project has been installed at the Zaporizhzhya power plant in the city of Energodar.
The battery will certainly save and dispatch power to the grid, along with preserve the functioning of Ukraine's power system, DTEK claimed.
The firm will quickly certify the system to get the condition of 'get capacity company' for the system driver.

" Additionally, these storage remedies will certainly be vital to making sure the energy security of our nation, in addition to a brand-new point of development for the Ukrainian energy market."
Honeywell Process Solutions general supervisor, renewables and distributed assets Eren Ergin stated: "Sustainability is an essential focus for Honeywell. Energy storage space is a very important part of it.
" The need for energy storage space systems is raising exponentially to enable meeting decarbonisation and renewable targets worldwide.
" An estimated 350GW of grid-related battery storage will come online by 2030.
" We at Honeywell see ourselves in an unique placement to deal with today's difficulties in energy monitoring.
" We feel very honored to be working with DTEK that concentrates on development and also most current technologies to lead the charge in energy transition in Ukraine. DTEK is real trendsetter."
