DTEK Energy Holding plans to build its second energy storage system with a capacity of 50 MW next year, DTEK Executive Director Dmytro Sakharuk said.
“Now we are considering another 50 MW project, which we will build, I hope, next year,” Sakharuk said during the Kyiv International Forum.
At the same time, he noted that the first 1 MW energy storage system of the company, launched in May of this year, took part in the market of auxiliary services for the first time this week, having worked on it for a day.
“This week we’ve rendered services for the first time – our battery storage worked for 24 hours on the market,” Sakharuk said.
As reported, at the end of September, Ukrenergo certified the energy storage system at Zaporizhia TPP (PJSC DTEK Dniproenergo) with a capacity of ± 1 MW to participate in the market of auxiliary services, which happened for the first time in Ukraine.
DTEK launched an industrial energy storage system of the American company Honeywell with a capacity of 1 MW and a capacity of 2.25 MWh at the site of DTEK Zaporizhia TPP in Energodar on May 20 this year.
