Soltech in large-scale battery park project of 12 MWh for the energy company Falu Energi & Vatten
Soltechs subsidiary Soltech Energy Solutions has now signed a new battery agreement with an order value of approximately SEK 60–70 million. The company will assist the energy company Falu Energi & Vatten AB with the design and installation of a battery park of 12 MWh. The battery storage facility will be constructed in Falun and will be Soltech’s largest battery installation in the county. The installation is expected to be commissioned in November 2024.
Soltech Energy Solutions is one of the Soltech
Group’s companies within tech solutions such as
advanced energy systems, energy storage and large-scale
solar energy solutions. The company has now been
commissioned to build another large battery park. The
installation will be constructed in Falun and for the
municipal energy company Falu Energi &
Vatten.
– It feels
great to be able to support Falu Energi & Vatten
with a tech solution that will contribute with necessary
frequency regulation and stabilization. Battery parks
like this are an investment that will create value both
for the energy company but also for the regional
electricity grid,
says Zen Dinha, business engineer at Soltech Energy
Solutions.
A growing demand
In recent
years, Soltech Energy Solutions has
established itself as a market leader in large-scale
battery parks. An area that is becoming an increasingly
important element in the green transition to maintain
the important balance between electricity production and
consumption.
The company’s
battery department has, among other things, helped other
solar energy companies, municipal energy companies and
the transport sector with the design and installation of
energy storage as well as subsequent operational
maintenance and service.
– The
share of renewable electricity is increasing in the
country, which is great. But with the expansion of
unplanned electricity production, the need for
stabilizing support services such as batteries also
increases. We therefore see that the market for
large-scale battery parks will grow further. Not least
in combination with, and complement to, already
established solar energy installations,
says Zen Dinha.
Soltech Energy Solutions has, among
other things, designed and installed the following
battery parks:
- 14 MWh for Varberg Energi
- 2 MWh for Alight
- 4 MWh for Tekniska verken
- 2 MWh for Falkenklev Logistik
- 12 MWh for Nybro Energi
