Beginner designer introduces 1.3 GW UK solar pipe
UK designer Queequeg Renewables has introduced a pipe of solar and also standalone battery storage projects over of 1300MW.
London-based Queequeg is about to submit planning applications for the first projects in its 1.3 GW tranche of grid-secured solar projects, with two gigawatt-hours of grid-secured standalone battery schemes likewise because of go into preparation in the months ahead.
The solar projects, which range in dimension from 10MW to 50MW, will be subsidy-free and powered by power purchase agreements (PPAs).
The battery pipeline makes up systems ranging in scale from 20-480 megawatt-hours and also will certainly deliver capability as well as grid harmonizing services to the grid.
Projects are prepared in England, Scotland as well as Wales with Queequeg intending to originally develop and also operate a number of the possessions.
All projects have grid deals and also land agreements in place and it is Queequeg's plan to bring further renewables projects right into the portfolio.
The pipe is the culmination of greater than a year's work by Queequeg, which has "built a strong advancement team" countrywide with essential hires from throughout the renewables market and also more duties to adhere to.
The venture is led by business creators Gabriella Palla and Daniele Stiglitz, each of whom brings virtually twenty years of advancement experience in Italy, where they have delivered considerable wind, solar and biomass projects with a series of partners.
Their first tranche of projects has funding in place, with the company keen to speak with new partners for future plans.
Palla (imagined, centre right) claimed: "We were drawn in to the UK by its clear regulative atmosphere and also the nation's drive towards boosted sustainable generation.
" Our team believe that developing flexible assets-- including standalone battery storage space and combined solar and also battery systems-- will play a vital function in increasing the internet no transition, with mitigating grid blockage and delivering more stable prices.
" It will be crucial for us to create solid and favorable relationships in the communities in which we operate via making sure that each project we establish is built to the extremely highest possible ecological principles.
The solar projects are being created with single-axis trackers modern technology and also bifacial crystalline modules to optimize land usage and also reduce their footprint.
Storage systems will certainly be applied along with the solar projects to incorporate eco-friendly generation with flexible result, providing security as well as regularity feedback to the grid.

UK battery project wins preparing appeal
UK storage space developer Balance Power has won an appeal on a 50MW battery power storage space system (BESS) project in the Midlands.
The project, Wolverhampton West, on the edge of south Staffordshire, was authorized on appeal after an examiner discovered that the environmental benefits offered unique circumstances for being situated in the Green Belt, as well as straight align with national efforts to decarbonise the UK's power system.
The appeal win "demonstrates the business's diligence" when choosing websites and also preserves Balance Power's performance history on preparation applications, with a preparation success rate of 94%.
Balance Power has actually currently taken 27 energy projects through to planning approval, providing 312MW of capacity.
In the year to day, 144MW has actually been consented as well as sold, and also a further 750MW of projects with secured grid connections is under development nationwide.
The Wolves West appeal is one of three planning appeals that Balance Power has actually won in recent weeks, with 2 gas peaking projects also granted in Sudbury and Goring, providing an additional 14MW of capacity.
Dan Levy, of Balance Power, stated: 'We are very happy to have protected all three planning appeals.
" Battery storage modern technology is amongst one of the most reliable devices to increase the combination of renewables onto the grid; aiding to stabilise power reliability as well as in turn, decreasing the price of electricity for consumers."
