Technical FAQs 4

Does ESB have a battery plant in Dublin?

ESB has officially opened a major battery plant at its Poolbeg site in Dublin, which will store excess renewable energy for discharge when needed. It said the facility will add 75MW of fast-acting energy storage to help provide grid stability.

Are battery energy storage systems a 'great achievement' in Ireland?

ESB Networks described the project as a “great achievement for battery storage” in Ireland. Battery energy storage systems, often referred to as Bess, are regarded as a vital part of the Ireland’s fledgling renewable energy sector and demand for them has never been higher.

Which battery energy storage systems are available in Ireland?

The Kylemore Battery Energy Storage System in Dublin went into operation in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting storage. The South Wall Battery Energy Storage System went live in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting energy storage.

Can energy storage be decarbonised in Ireland?

A critical point has been reached in the deployment of energy storage in Ireland. Power system development plans forecast that to achieve decarbonisation of the power system a large increase in the volume of ESS is required to assist in integrating the necessary volumes of variable renewable energy (VRE).
