Technical FAQs 4

Where is the battery energy storage project located in Belgium?

Once completed, the four-hour battery energy storage project will operate under a 15-year contract with Elia, Belgium’s electricity grid operator, and be located next to Engie’s gas power plant in Vilvoorde. From pv magazine ESS News site

Is vanadium the future of battery energy storage?

The use of vanadium in the battery energy storage sector is expected to experience disruptive growth this decade on the back of unprecedented vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) deployments.

Why is battery storage important for Belgium's energy transition?

Upon completion of the second 400MWh phase by the end of 2025, the entire installation will be providing clean, stable power for about 96,000 homes and helping stabilize Belgium’s power grid. Battery storage is one of the most vital, yet too often overlooked, pieces of the energy transition jigsaw,” said Moritz Rolf, Sungrow Europe Vice President.

Where is the largest battery energy storage system in Europe?
