(Montel) French energy storage provider Corsica Sole and Estonian renewables developer Evecon have agreed to build two large batteries in Estonia with a total capacity of 200 MW by 2025.
The two batteries will play a key role in stabilising the power grids in the Baltic states as they plan to desynchronise from the Russian power grid, the two companies said in a statement on Tuesday.
The batteries will have 400 MWh of storage capacity, notably for intermittent wind and solar power generation.
Construction of the first plant in Kiisa will begin in the spring of next year, while construction of the second plant at Arukula will commence in the last quarter of next year.
