- Three 44-tonne battery storage containers delivered, storing up to 15 MWh.
- Medium-voltage switchgear and other components installed last week.
- Battery storage to stabilize grid and support energy transition.
- Premnitz site to provide flexible energy supply beyond base load.
Battery Storage Milestone
The EEW Group has reached a significant milestone with the delivery of three battery storage containers, each weighing 44 tonnes. These modules will store up to 15 megawatt hours of energy, forming the core of the new storage facility developed in collaboration with Tricera.
Infrastructure Installation
Last week, a medium-voltage switchgear weighing 38 tonnes was installed using a telescopic crane, connecting the storage technology to the public power grid. Inverters and transformers have also been set up, marking the final major step before commissioning.
Grid Stabilization and Energy Transition
The battery storage facility will store energy during electricity surpluses and release it when needed, helping to stabilize grid frequency and meet demand peaks. This capability is crucial in a volatile energy market with increasing renewable energy shares, contributing to supply security.
Premnitz Site Development
Integrating storage technology at Premnitz enhances its role as a high-performance energy supplier. The site already provides electricity for over 40,000 households, process steam for the industrial park, and district heating for Premnitz and Brandenburg an der Havel. Future energy supply will be more flexible and demand-driven.
