Technical FAQs 4

Does ESB have a battery plant in Dublin?

ESB has officially opened a major battery plant at its Poolbeg site in Dublin, which will store excess renewable energy for discharge when needed. It said the facility will add 75MW of fast-acting energy storage to help provide grid stability.

Where is ESB launching a battery energy storage system in Ireland?

Currently the largest site of its kind in commercial operation in Ireland, this battery energy storage system (BESS) is part of ESB's pipeline projects that are being completed at sites in Dublin and Cork, representing an investment of up to €300m.

What can ESB do for Ireland's Electricity System?

Large-scale battery energy storage projects and Turlough Hill pumped storage power station combine to reach milestone that can help to provide flexibility and support more renewables on Ireland’s electricity system. Today, ESB Networks has announced that it has 1,000 MW (one Giga Watt) of electricity storage connected to Ireland’s network.

How does electricity storage work in Ireland?

For context, peak demand on Ireland’s electricity system is approximately 5.5 GW. Electricity storage systems such as utility-scale battery projects also provide essential backup services to the grid that help to keep the electricity supply secure, reduces carbon emissions and ultimately reduces costs to the consumer.
