Ørsted gets approval for English grid-scale battery project
Ørsted has received the rubber stamp needed from UK authorities to move forward with development of a battery facility at the same site as an onshore substation in Swardeston, England, reports Rechange News.
The system, set to occupy roughly 32,000 square meters, will store energy generated at offshore wind farm Hornsea 3.
”With planning permission now in place, we will continue to work alongside local stakeholders and our chosen suppliers to finalize designs,” the media cites Ørsted commenting.
Ørsted’s plans were unanimously approved by South Norfolk Council planning authorities.
Hornsea 3, planned to achieve 2.4GW capacity upon completion, is one of the world’s largest offshore wind projects under current development.
