Gore Street Energy Storage Fund’s two 50MW battery assets in Northern Ireland are in the final stages of construction and testing, the company announced.
Planning consent has been granted for a 50MW battery energy storage project in Aberdeenshire for developer Intelligent Land Investments Group (ILI Group).
Utility-scale battery storage project activity started for real during 2020, with a strong pipeline of projects built up in the last few years and ready for deployment in 2021 and beyond. Solar Media Market Research’s Lauren Cook and Mollie McCorkindale take a look under the hood of Ireland’s battery storage pipeline.
The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has confirmed solar will be allowed to compete in next year’s Contracts for Difference (CfD) round, but specific details have yet to be revealed.
