Frequency regulation Bennewitz, Germany 2018
The large scale on-grid battery storage project in Bennewitz, Germany, is prequalified with an output of 16 MW / 25 MWh PRL (Primärregelleistung – Frequency response). It is one of the largest battery storage systems in Germany and helps stabilizing grid frequency 24/7.
The system is installed near a substation and connected at 33 kV. The project uses lead carbon batteries and is the second of a series of projects.
