The project in Ingenbohl, Switzerland. Image: EWS AG. Utility EWS AG and developer MW Storage have completed the expansion of a battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Switzerland from 20MW to 28MW, making it the country's largest.
Axpo commissioned its BESS in February this year while utility Thurplus commissioned a 3MW system in September last year. But Switzerland was the location for one of the largest energy storage projects commissioned in recent years, a 20GWh pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) unit which started operations in June 2022 in the Canton of Valais.
The country is pursuing the goal of transitioning its energy supply entirely to renewable sources by 2050. “Large-scale battery storage systems will play an increasingly important role in stabilizing the power grid in the future.” — Frederik Süllwald, Head of Global Sales & Key Account Management, INTILION
