6 FAQs about [France Lyon All-vanadium Battery Energy Storage Project]
What is the biggest battery energy storage system in France?
The biggest battery energy storage system (BESS) in mainland France went into operation in late January, and will provide grid-balancing services to national transmission system operator RTE. France-headquartered multinational energy company Total was contracted by RTE for the project, which has 25MWac rated output and 25MWh of storage capacity.
Where is a lithium-ion battery based energy storage system built?
It has been built at the site of a former oil refinery operated and owned by Total in Dunkirk, in northern France. The lithium-ion battery energy storage system used for the project was provided by battery and energy storage provider Saft, which Total owns.
Who provides lithium-ion battery energy storage?
The lithium-ion battery energy storage system used for the project was provided by battery and energy storage provider Saft, which Total owns. Engineering procurement and construction (EPC) duties including civil works and system integration services were provided by Omexom, which announced the project’s completion in late January.
What is amarenco-Claudia battery energy storage system?
The Amarenco-Claudia Battery Energy Storage System is a 105,000kW lithium-ion battery energy storage project located in Gironde, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The rated storage capacity of the project is 98,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology. The project will be commissioned in 2023.
Why is battery storage so important in France?
Traditionally these services would be provided by fossil fuel power plants but battery storage can respond much faster and without creating harmful pollution or emissions onsite. France is in Europe's common market for FCR along with five other countries, with daily auctions designed to keep the grid operating at 50Hz.
What is the Dunkirk battery energy storage system?
The Dunkirk Battery Energy Storage System is a 61,000kW lithium-ion battery energy storage project located in Dunkirk, Hauts-de-France, France. The rated storage capacity of the project is 61,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology. The project will be commissioned in 2021.
