The Dublin-based company said it will take part in a study into the commercial viability of running 2MW of storage connected directly to a 10MW wind facility, and operating it in Ireland’s Single Electricity Market.
The Wind-Storage Hybrid Study will begin in September and be carried out with backing from government body Enterprise Ireland.
MRP said the initiative will “look at integrating wind generation with a mixture of flywheel, synchronous condenser and battery technologies”.
