By GlobalDataThe BESS ensures maximum use of the current facilities by sharing a grid connection with the wind farm. It will be used to deliver several services to grid operators, as well as to manage energy imbalances in the power system.
The system is scheduled to become operational in the second quarter of next year.
Last month, Eurus Energy announced the completion of a BESS at the Eurus Tashirotai Wind Farm in Japan. This facility has a total capacity of 7.65MW.
