📌

Where is Estonia's largest battery storage facility located?

The flagship battery storage project commenced operations on February 1, only days before cutting ties with the Russian power grid. Estonian state-owned energy company Eesti Energia has inaugurated the nation’s largest battery energy storage facility at the Auvere industrial complex in Ida-Viru County.

📌

How much energy does Estonia use?

Estonia's all-time peak consumption is MW (in ). In the electricity generated from renewable energy sources was 29.3 %, being 38% of the share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption. Oil-based fuels, including oil shale and fuel oils, accounted for about 80% of domestic production in .

📌

What is Estonia's Auvere Bess project?

Estonia’s Auvere BESS project is designed to participate in both the electricity exchange and other energy markets to ensure the security of electricity supply. According to Eesti Energia board member Kristjan Kuhi, the battery is able to respond very effectively to fluctuations in the power system.

📌

Who delivered the Eesti Energia project?

The project was delivered by energy solutions system integrator Diotech Group, which won Eesti Energia’s international tender in . It was supplied with battery technology from LG Energy Solution. Installation and connection work were carried out by Enefit Solutions.
