Today’s renewable energy news includes announcements from Axpo, Enertis Applus+, JUWI Renewable, among others. The standalone BESS project will enhance grid flexibility, improve renewable energy integration and strengthen Italy’s electricity system as wind and solar capacity continue to expand. Enertis Applus+ Supports 2 GWh UK Battery Storage ProjectEnertis Applus+ has been appointed to provide technical advisory and engineering services for the 500 MW/2,000 MWh Braston/Wallace Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Scotland, one of the UK’s largest standalone battery projects. The 2 GWh battery system is designed to improve grid flexibility, store surplus renewable electricity and enhance the integration of Scotland’s growing wind generation. The hybrid project is expected to strengthen grid stability, improve energy security and support South Africa’s transition to a cleaner power system by delivering more flexible renewable energy.
