Technical FAQs 4

What is the UK's largest battery energy storage system?

National Grid has energised what is being billed as the UK’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS), connecting the 300MW Thurrock Storage project to its transmission network at Tilbury substation in Essex.

What are the UK's largest energy storage projects?

Bramley BESS (Hampshire): 100 MW / 331 MWh, currently the UK’s largest energy storage project. Fidra Energy (Thorpe Marsh): A 1.4 GW / 3.1 GWh BESS being built on a former coal site. Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP): Two 500 MW / 3 GWh systems planned in Scotland.

How many battery storage projects are there?

The pipeline of battery storage projects has continued to grow steadily again, from 84.4GW in December 2023 to 95.5GW in May 2024. This edition of the EnergyPulse report on Energy Storage shows there is 8.7GW of batteries in operation and under construction and more than 30GW projects have now been consented.

Is the UK ready for a new pumped storage hydropower facility?

“This is a historic moment for the UK’s energy system. We’ve not built a new Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH) facility in nearly 50 years, but with over 10GW and 200GWh of shovel-ready projects, the Hydropower sector stands ready to deliver.
