Fluence has supplied a 10.8 MW battery-based energy storage system for Killala Community Wind Farm owned by Greencoat Renewables PLC.
The project that co-locates Fluence’s Gridstack energy storage product with the Killala Community Wind Farm in County Mayo in Ireland has entered the commissioning phase. Once fully operational, it will help increase system stability in the Irish electricity grid, as Greencoat Renewables will use the system to participate in energy flexibility markets.
The project makes use of Fluence’s proprietary Gridstack product, built on the company’s sixth-generation utility-scale technology. It is designed for the most demanding grid applications, including frequency regulation, flexible peaking capacity, and enhanced transmission and distribution services.
