The battery energy storage park and its substation will be connected to the electricity transmission network using a 330kV AC underground cable, marking a first in Estonia. Baltic Storage Platform confirmed that the BESS will seek to ensure the stability and resilience of the Estonian electricity grid.
Estonia’s climate minister, Yoko Alender, emphasized the role of storage systems in this transition, stating, “Estonia has a clear goal – by 2030, the amount of electricity we consume must come from renewable sources.
The project, spearheaded by the Baltic Storage Platform—a joint venture between Estonian energy company Evecon, French solar producer Corsica Sole, and sustainable finance management company Mirova—aims to bolster energy security and support Estonia’s transition to renewable energy. Project Details
Karl Kull, CEO of Evecon, believes the groundbreaking represents a “historic” moment for Estonia and the entire Baltic energy sector for two primary reasons. “First, this is an extremely important and real step to prepare the synchronisation of the Baltic countries.
As Estonia and its Baltic neighbors prepare for grid synchronization with the rest of Europe, energy security becomes a pressing issue. The ability to store and deploy energy as needed is crucial for balancing the power supply, especially as the region shifts towards renewable energy sources such as wind and solar.
State-owned energy company Eesti Energi management board member Kristjan Kuhi recently highlighted to Energy-Storage.news Premium that the transition to a 15-minute balancing period and the desynchronisation of the Baltic electricity system from the Russian grid have spurred growth in Estonia’s energy storage sector.
The global solar folding container and energy storage container market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with portable and outdoor power demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years.
