6 FAQs about [Latvia Container Energy Storage Station BESS Project]

Where is the first battery energy storage system in Latvia?

On November 1 Latvia’s largest wind energy producer Utilitas Wind opened the first utility-scale battery energy storage battery system in Latvia with a total power of 10 MW and capacity of 20 MWh in Targale, Ventspils region.

Why do we need a battery system in Latvia?

The battery system is an essential infrastructure element for the security and stability of Latvia’s energy supply. The batteries will work as modern accumulators for storing large volumes of energy, which will be important for ensuring energy balance once the Latvian electricity supply grid works in sync with the European grid.”

Where are Bess projects being implemented?

The first BESS projects are being implemented in Latvia and at Latvenergo production sites – starting with the smaller-scale BESS at Latvenergo AS CHPP-1 and continuing with larger storage solutions, including at Riga HPP and Latvenergo AS CHPP-2. The procurement and selection of suppliers for the latter projects is currently in progress.

What is a battery energy storage system (BESS)?

BESS, or Battery Energy Storage System, is a technology that allows electricity to be stored with the objective of feeding it back into the grid at times of peak demand. The stored energy helps to balance electricity supply and demand, while ensuring the stability of frequency.

How will Latvenergo improve the security of supply?

The innovations and infrastructure of Latvenergo will not only strengthen the security of supply but also the development of the Baltic region.” BESS, or Battery Energy Storage System, is a technology that allows electricity to be stored with the objective of feeding it back into the grid at times of peak demand.

When will infrastructure projects in Latvia be completed?

According to the original plan, all infrastructure projects in Latvia will be completed by the end of 2025, with the bulk of the work completed by February 2025, ensuring technical readiness for the safe and stable operation of the system in synchronisation mode.
