Canadian Solar’s e-STORAGE has inked contracts with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) for 2 gigawatt hours (GWh) of battery energy storage systems for two projects in the U.K., according to a Jan. 8 news release.
The contracts were awarded to e-STORAGE, a subsidiary of the Canadian Solar’s CSI Solar Co. Ltd., for the 1-GWh Coalburn 2 project in Scotland and the 1-GWh Devilla project in Fife. Construction on the two projects is scheduled to begin in 2027, according to the news release.
“The Coalburn 2 and Devilla batteries represent a transformative energy milestone for Scotland and the U.K.,” said Colin Parkin, president of e-STORAGE. “e-STORAGE will be delivering 2 GWh of energy storage capacity, which will enhance grid stability, reduce network constraints, and unlock the potential of offshore wind energy.”
The company will supply and integrate about 450 SolBank 3.0 battery containers for the projects. The 2 GWh capacity is expected to provide enough energy to power about 250,000 homes for a full day, according to the release.
