Sungrow Powers 100MW UK BESS Project
- Sungrow has been chosen to provide equipment for a 100MW/260MWh battery energy storage system project in the UK. Penso Power, BW ESS and Sungrow have formed a JV to deliver multiple storage systems, with the first planned for Bramley, Hampshire in 2024.
Chinese battery storage maker Sungrow has been selected to provide the equipment needed for a 100-MW/260-MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) project in the UK. It will deliver its PowerTitan 2.0 liquid cooled energy storage system, in which the power conversion system and battery are integrated into one 20Ft container. The site, based in Bramley, Hampshire, is scheduled to be commissioned in 2024 and connected to the local grid to provide balancing and ancillary services. Sungrow is also collaborating with Penso Power and BW Energy Storage Systems (BW ESS) on the project, as part of a joint venture partnership agreed upon in late 2021. This is the first project to be realised under the partnership, with several others planned for the UK in the near future.
