Connection dates of 10GW of battery projects accelerated at transmission level, and 10GW of capacity unlocked at distribution level, both part of the Electricity System Operator (ESO)’s connections five-point plan.
A battery storage project developed by TagEnergy is now connected and energised on the electricity transmission network, following work by National Grid to plug the facility into its 132kV Drax substation in North Yorkshire.
Batteries placed in the transmission grid can inject or absorb real and reactive power, mimicking transmission line flows. Consequently, battery systems can replace a proposed line upgrade or a new line that would otherwise be built. Resource adequacy is the ability of the power system to ensure the reliability of electricity supply.
Mark Brindley, portfolio director for northern regions at National Grid Electricity Transmission (NGET), said: “Battery storage technologies play an essential part in delivering a net zero energy system in Britain, so connecting Lakeside BESS to our transmission network is a key moment in the pursuit of those clean energy targets.
It successfully demonstrated the role of batteries connected to the distribution grid in providing such services. Congestion in grids occurs when power flow is constrained by grid assets’ capabilities, creating a bottleneck that limits the normal flow of electricity.
Owned and operated by TagEnergy – with Tesla, Habitat Energy and RES as project partners – the newly-connected battery will help exploit the clean electricity potential of renewable projects in the region, storing and releasing green energy to power homes and businesses and also helping to relieve any system constraints.
