About the project

Our first battery storage project in Zuid Holland, the Netherlands, boasts a 45 MW capacity with a 2-hour duration. Through collaboration with local authorities and innovative modular designs, we optimized space utilization and streamlined the permitting process. Grid connection is established, and the project is on track for completion by early 2026, positioning it as a key contributor to regional energy stability.

Project Overview

Construction is set to commence in the fall of 2024.

Battery

The battery, consisting of 144 Fluence cubes, has a capacity of 90MWh and will on average store enough energy supply equivalent for 21,500 households per day.

Location

Utility-scale BESS is being constructed in the port area of Dordrecht, on a 6000m² site, x distance from the Dordrecht substation.

Congestion

Our market access partner will optimize the battery to maintain this balance without increasing local congestion.
