The long-lasting batteries will be used to support a solar farm in Spain as part of a larger EU-wide engagement, providing resilience to the local electricity grid. With a combined capacity of 8.5 MWh, ESS systems will be among the largest battery storage resources in Spain.

“We are 100% committed to energy storage as an essential complement to our growing portfolio of renewable energy projects”, said Pasquale Salza, head of long-term storage and hybrid systems for Enel Green Power. “With this project, we will evaluate and validate the ESS flux batteries, which we have selected for their good combination of long-lasting capacity, long-lasting performance, environmental sustainability and safe operation.”

ESS is collaborating with several key partners on this project, including Loccioni, a global systems integrator with projects in over 45 countries. The company also works with Enertis, a global consulting and engineering company based in Spain.
