Hitachi Energy has installed a 6.25MW/7.5MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in the Faroe Islands for utility SEV, with substantial benefits to a connected wind farm.
The energy solutions arm of the large Japanese conglomerate announced the completion of the 1.2-hour project, the largest in the North Atlantic archipelago, last week (1 February).
SEV contracted Hitachi Energy to provide the BESS project back in 2021, reported by Energy-Storage.news at the time. The firm provided its e-meshTM PowerStoreTM BESS enclosure for the project.
