Estonia's distributed energy storage advantages
📌

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 will a battery energy storage park work in Estonia?

The battery energy storage park and its substation will be connected to the electricity transmission network using a 330kV AC underground cable, marking a first in Estonia. Baltic Storage Platform confirmed that the BESS will seek to ensure the stability and resilience of the Estonian electricity grid.

📌

How has the transition to a 15-minute balancing period impacted Estonia's energy storage?

State-owned energy company Eesti Energi management board member Kristjan Kuhi recently highlighted to Energy-Storage.news Premium that the transition to a 15-minute balancing period and the desynchronisation of the Baltic electricity system from the Russian grid have spurred growth in Estonia’s energy storage sector.

📌

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.

📌

Why did Lithuania announce 800 MWh energy storage tender?

In similar moves, only a day before it began to unplug from Russia’s electricity grid and join the EU’s network, Lithuania announced 800 MWh energy storage tender to the tune of EUR 102 million ($ 105 million) with the goal to procure balancing services to the transmission system operator and ensure the resilience of its grid.

📌

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.
