Belectric, the recently-acquired solar and storage unit of German utility Innogy, has inaugurated a 16MW energy storage system in Saxony state to provide ancillary services that are increasingly needed due to more renewable power on the grid.
Belectric has built and commissioned the facility as general contractor for regional power provider Eins Energie in Sachsen. The €10m ($11.8m) unit with a rated capacity of 16MW can provide 10MW in primary reserve to the power market.
