Harmony Energy gets green light for 49.5MW battery
- Harmony Energy has actually been offered the go on for its most recent grid-scale battery power storage space system to day.

"We are getting in a critical period for the future of the UK's power supply. Coal-fired power gets on track to be eliminated by 2025 and also with stringent targets to decarbonise our system with the proceeded rollout of low-carbon generation, utility-scale power storage space systems like these are crucial to keeping safety, adaptability and also security," Grogan included.
