Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are sophisticated solutions that store and release electrical energy as required, improving grid performance and offering services like peak shaving, load leveling, frequency regulation, and voltage support. This enhances grid reliability and efficiency.
Zabrze 2 is envisaged to have the following revenue streams:
• availability-based capacity payments, covering vast majority of capex over the 17 years guaranteed contractual period, under the capacity market auctioning system
• energy prices peak/off-peak arbitrage and trading
• electric vehicle (EV) charging stations,
• frequency and other services to the grid
• energy balancing services, balancing market
• connectivity suport for RES installations
• Aggregation, charging stations supply
• other third party services
Zabrze, situated in Poland’s heavily industrialized Upper Silesian region, is a city with a rich history and thriving community. Its strategic location makes it ideal for energy storage investments.
Battery energy storage systems in Zabrze can help local industries to optimize energy use, improve grid stability, and transition to renewables. This contributes to economic growth and emphasizes the city's commitment to sustainability.
