reactive power

Zenobē Energy’s 100MW/107MWh Capenhurst battery energy storage system (BESS) has begun delivering reactive power services to the grid, as part of a world first contract.

​The first in National Grid ESO’s voltage management projects has gone live, with the Mersey Reactive Power solution installed in Frodsham, Cheshire.

​National Grid ESO has put out a request for information (RFI) for new sources of reactive capability across England and Wales.

​Three fossil fuel free turbines will go live this summer, producing green inertia by mimicking the effect of a power station, according to National Grid ESO.

​Renewable energy consultancy and service provider Natural Power has been appointed to support Zenobē’s 100MW Capenhurst battery energy storage project.

​From today (14 February 2022), renewables can provide stability services to National Grid ESO in what the operator has said is a world first.

​In a UK first, National Grid Electricity System Operator (ESO) has awarded a reactive power contract to an offshore wind farm transmission asset, SSE’s Dogger Bank C.

​Independent energy developers Carlton Power and Stag Energy are to merge their operations, targeting energy infrastructure projects that will support the transition to net zero.

​SP Energy Networks (SPEN) has appointed Conrad Energy to provide reactive power to solve network constraints, in what it says is a UK first.

​Two gas turbines at Triton Power’s Deeside Power Station have been repurposed to provide inertia and reactive power to National Grid ESO.
