Batteries enable the phasing out of fossil fuels and increase flexibility in the electricity system through energy storage. The Swedish battery industry is at the forefront. Sweden also has related strengths and opportunities in areas such as vehicles and electrical systems, as well as a strong mining cluster.
14 large-scale battery storage systems (BESS) have come online in Sweden to deploy 211 MW / 211 MWh into the region. Developer and optimiser Ingrid Capacity and energy storage owner-operator BW ESS have been working in partnership to deliver 14 large-scale BESS projects throughout Sweden’s grid, situated in electricity price areas SE3 and SE4.
Batteries are a crucial piece of the puzzle if we are to achieve Sweden’s climate goals with net-zero emissions by 2045. Batteries enable the phasing out of fossil fuels and increase flexibility in the electricity system through energy storage. The Swedish battery industry is at the forefront.
This is why we are now building Sweden’s largest Battery Energy Storge Solution (BESS) of 10 MW, which will be located in Grums, in western Sweden. The main function of the system is to better balance the national grid networks.
But as the battery industry develops and grows in many countries simultaneously, investors, materials, and expertise become scarce. If Sweden is to succeed in the battery field, competence will be required from both Sweden and the rest of the world.
Sweden’s largest energy storage investment, totaling 211 MW, goes live, combining 14 sites. 14 large-scale battery storage systems (BESS) have come online in Sweden to deploy 211 MW / 211 MWh into the region.
