Norway once aimed to be the ''battery of Europe'' but has since been overtaken other Nordic countries Sweden and Finland for BESS deployment.
The BESS project is located in the Southern Ostrobothnia region of Finland, with construction expected to start during Q2 2025 and operations commencing in the following year.
The need for BESS is exceptionally high in Finland because the country has set one of the world's most aggressive climate targets. The government has a legal obligation to reach carbon neutrality by 2035. Renewable energy sources account for over 50% of electricity production, and several renewable projects are being planned or developed.
BESS owners can participate in the Nordic wholesale electricity market, operating on a joint Nordic power exchange called Nord Pool. BESS operators can also participate in cross-border markets to provide storage capacity for ancillary services, such as frequency regulation, which helps maintain grid stability and reliability.
Energy storage systems offer a solution. “This groundbreaking is an important moment for Finland's energy transition and a concrete step toward a more flexible, resilient, and decarbonized energy system,” said Jussi Jyrinsalo, Senior Vice President at Fingrid.
Nicklas Bäcker, chief strategy officer for Ingrid, who has also given interviews to this site, commented on the Finland project: “We are scaling up rapidly to larger systems with greater capacity. Our optimisation platform allows us to unlock new ways for BESS to support the grid and strengthen our value proposition to grid operators and partners.”
Kukonkylä BESS project has now achieved ready-to-build status, marking a major milestone in one of the largest publicly announced BESS projects in Finland. The permit committee of the municipality of Sievi has approved the construction of a 125 MW BESS in Kukonkylä.
As well as being a BESS project developer which sells majority stakes in its portfolios to long-term investors, Ingrid Capacity has also its own optimisation platform for operating and trading BESS in the market once operational. CEO Axel Holmberg discussed the move into optimisation in September 2024 with Energy-Storage.news (Premium access).
