United Kingdom – Wärtsilä is set to deliver energy storage system to Zenobē, an electric vehicle fleet and battery storage specialist.
The 300-megawatt (MW) / 600-megawatt hour (MWh) energy storage system, equipped with Wärtsilä’s Quantum High Energy (QuantumHE) technology, represents a significant leap forward in energy storage capabilities. QuantumHE offers increased energy density, ensuring enhanced efficiency and performance for Zenobē.
Mitigating CO2 emissions
Delivered under Great Britain’s National Grid’s NOA Stability Pathfinder programme, the project aims to tackle stability issues arising from the intermittent nature of renewable energy generation. By providing grid operators with a reliable mechanism to balance supply and demand, the energy storage system plays a crucial role in maximizing the utilization of Scotland’s abundant wind energy resources. Over the next 15 years, the project is expected to mitigate approximately 3.4 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions, contributing significantly to the nation’s climate goals.
