Ukrainian private utility DTEK has energised the largest battery storage project in the war-torn country and one of the biggest ones in Eastern Europe.

 

The 200 MW/400 MWh installation spans six sites ranging from 20 MW to 50 MW and connected to the power grid in the Kyiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions. DTEK invested €125 million ($146 million) into the project.

 

The project uses Fluence’s Gridstack solution and is designed to provide enough dispatchable energy to power 600,000 homes for two hours.
