Romania’s hydropower plant Hidroelectrica (BVB: H2O) has under different stages of development battery energy storage system - BESS projects with a total capacity of over 3,000 MWh, some of them able to deliver energy at nameplate capacity for four hours, according to Economica.net, based on data included in the company’s reports.
A first project is the one attached to the Crucea wind farm and includes a 72 MWh storage facility – capable of operating at 36 MW for two hours. The investment received authorisation from the market regulator ANRE. The battery, a project in which the Romanian companies Prime Batteries and Enevo are also involved, will be operational in three months at most, much earlier than the initial deadline.
