CO2 Batteries That Store Grid Energy Take Off Globally
These innovative CO2 batteries from Energy Dome promise long-duration energy storage for the grid, and reliable 24/7 clean power for data centers.
The project in Ingenbohl, Switzerland. Image: EWS AG. Utility EWS AG and developer MW Storage have completed the expansion of a battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Switzerland from 20MW to 28MW, making it the country's largest.
Axpo commissioned its BESS in February this year while utility Thurplus commissioned a 3MW system in September last year. But Switzerland was the location for one of the largest energy storage projects commissioned in recent years, a 20GWh pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) unit which started operations in June 2022 in the Canton of Valais.
The new large-scale battery for Switzerland in Kappel supports the Energy Strategy 2050 and supports renewable energies.
INTILION managed the entire transport chain from China to Switzerland – including shipping, customs clearance, and interim storage. Instead of relying on a complex road transport solution, INTILION chose an alternative approach: all 16 containers were transported together by inland vessel along the Rhine, from Rotterdam to Birsfelden.
