What is energy storage?

Our goal is to become a key player in energy storage in Europe, maximizing the utilization of sustainably generated energy. Energy storage is the missing link in the transition to a world powered solely by renewable and clean energy.

Where are Europe's biggest battery storage facilities?

London and Toronto, January 25th, 2022 - Amp Energy, a global Energy Transition Platform, and renewable energy developer, today announces Europe's two biggest battery storage facilities with its 800 MW battery portfolio in central; Scotland (the "Scottish Green Battery Complex").

When will a 400 MW battery storage facility be built in Scotland?

Following consultations with stakeholders and local councils the two sites received planning consent from the Scottish Government Energy Consents Unit on the 5th January 2022. The 400 MW batteries will be the two largest grid-connected battery storage facilities in Europe.

Why should energy storage be developed at strategic locations?

By developing utility-scale energy storage at strategic locations, energy prices will become more stable, and we will become less dependent on the import of (fossil) energy. While this project will be the largest battery in Europe, much more storage capacity will be needed in the coming years.

How can Giga storage help facilitate the nuclear phase-out in Belgium?

Our ambition is to help facilitate the nuclear phase-out by achieving 2025 GW of battery storage in Belgium before 2030. GIGA Storage specializes in large-scale energy storage, investing in projects for optimizing energy supply and ensuring grid stability.

How will a new Battery Park affect the energy grid?

The project aims to make a significant contribution to the energy grid by providing stored renewable energy during periods of low solar and wind energy production, this will reduce the reliance on coal and gas power plants. The new battery park will have a storage capacity of 2.400 MWh.
