Commercial operation has started on the 100MW/331MWh Bramley battery energy storage system (BESS), a project in the UK deployed by owner-operator BW ESS, developer Penso Power and BESS provider Sungrow.

“This is a landmark moment for BW ESS’ UK rollout and a notable project in the context of the UK’s energy transition,” said Erik Strømsø, CEO of BW ESS, a speaker at this week’s Energy Storage Summit EU 2025 in London.

Germany and the UK are currently Europe’s ‘hottest’ markets for battery storage, but others present exciting opportunities, too.

Longroad Energy has secured a power purchase agreement for one of its hybrid solar and BESS projects in California with Marin Clean Energy.

Despite a 12% year-on-year fall in the capacity of newly submitted planning applications in 2024, there is still a strong interest in the UK energy storage market as a whole.

US renewable energy company Ormat Technologies has won a tender for two separate 15-year tolling agreements for two energy storage facilities with a combined capacity of 300MW/1,200MWh.

“To toll or not to toll seems to be the question. Rather the question you should be asking is with whom and how much,” a panellist at the Energy Storage Summit EU in London said today (19 February).
