The Central Electricity Board (CEB) has launched a tender for the design, manufacture, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of 14MW of battery storage. The systems are to be located at four substations: 4MW at Jin Fei, 2MW at La Tour Koenig, 4MW at Anahita and 4MW at Wooton. All four systems are to be running within a year of the contract being awarded. The batteries will be able to provide power at their rated capacity for at least 15 minutes to help stabilise the grid.
