At the end of July 2021, the Government of the Republic of Lithuania appointed Energy cells, a company of the EPSO-G Group, as the operator of the instantaneous isolated operation electricity reserve for Lithuania’s electricity storage facilities and entrusted it with the management of the electricity storage facilities system.
The remaining battery parks will receive the energy storage units in September‘, said R. Štilinis. The energy storage facility system of 312 battery cubes - 78 each in battery parks in Vilnius, Šiauliai and Alytus and Utena regions – will provide Lithuania with an instantaneous energy reserve.
Lithuania’s system of electricity storage facilities is essential to ensure the security of Lithuania’s energy system and its ability to operate in isolated mode.
The Government of the Republic of Lithuania has appointed Energy cells as the operator of storage facilities that will provide Lithuania with an instantaneous electricity reserve. Energy cells signed a contract with the winning consortium of Siemens Energy and Fluence. The start of the design works for the energy storage facilities system.
The energy storage system, which will provide Lithuania with an instantaneous isolated operation electricity reserve until synchronisation with the continental European networks (CEN), will be used after synchronisation for the integration of energy produced from renewable sources.
Lithuanian power plants currently operating in the IPS/UPS system can start supplying power within 15 minutes. Once synchronised with the CEN system, the energy storage facilities will be able to store electricity generated by solar or wind power plants and feed it into the grid when needed.
