Technical FAQs 4

What will ESB's new battery plant do for Ireland?

ESB has today opened its latest major battery plant at its Aghada site in Co Cork which will add 150MW (300MWh) of fast-acting energy storage to help provide grid stability and deliver more renewable power onto Ireland’s electricity system.

Which battery energy storage systems are available in Ireland?

The Kylemore Battery Energy Storage System in Dublin went into operation in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting storage. The South Wall Battery Energy Storage System went live in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting energy storage.

How much battery storage do we need in Ireland & Northern Ireland?

In 2021 energy experts Baringa estimated that to hit the 80 per cent renewable electricity targets in Ireland and Northern Ireland by 2030 we would need at least 1,700 MW of battery storage on the island of Ireland. Every battery storage project connected makes our electricity grid more secure and helps to integrate wind and solar power.

What is the energy storage sector like in Ireland?

Decommissioning and recycling at end of life In Ireland, the energy storage sector comprises mainly of an operational pumped hydro generation facility and c.700MW of short duration batteries providing system services, this will need to grow to c.4.5 GW by the mid 2030s.
