RWE has commissioned a battery storage system in the Netherlands at its Eemshaven power station. With a total capacity of 35 MW and a storage capacity of 41 MWh, the system will help balance power supply and demand in the Dutch electricity grid.
At RWE’s Moerdijk power station, the company is installing an ultra-fast synthetic inertia battery energy storage system, which has an installed capacity of 7.5 MW and a storage capacity of 11 MWh.
Both battery systems are part of RWE’s system integration solutions for OranjeWind, its offshore wind project in partnership with TotalEnergies. OranjeWind aims to improve the integration of intermittent renewable energy into the Dutch electricity system through technologies such as electrolysers, smart charging stations for electric vehicles, electric boilers, and battery storage systems.
