PowerField Launches 28-MWp Dutch Solar-Storage Plant

Dutch project developer PowerField Energy BV has launched trading operations at a 28-MWp solar-plus-storage plant in Wanneperveen, Overijssel province. The facility, developed and operated by PowerField Energy, includes a 21-MW/52-MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and is actively participating in Dutch energy markets.

FlexPower has been tasked with trading and optimizing the asset, using the STELLAR platform from Virtual Power Plant (VPP) provider Spectral. Co-locating solar panels and battery storage at a single grid access point is a growing trend in new energy projects, requiring an integrated approach to optimize parameters such as grid capacity and market prices.

Eelco Rondhuis, Head of Energy Management at PowerField, highlighted the benefits of co-locating PV and battery energy storage, emphasizing the need for careful optimization to maximize efficiency and profitability in the evolving energy landscape.
