Giant 500-million-euro battery storage plant planned in Waltrop
Original: In # Waltrop entsteht für rund 500 Millionen Euro ein großer # Batteriespeicher . 800 Container mit Lithium-Akkus sollen
A large battery storage facility is being built in Waltrop, Germany, at a cost of around 500 million euros. It will use 800 containers of lithium batteries to store up to 1,800 megawatt hours of electricity and deliver up to 900 megawatts of power, allowing surplus wind and solar energy to be fed into the grid later.
Why now: Interest in large-scale energy storage is growing as Germany expands wind and solar power and needs ways to store surplus renewable electricity.
