Neoen, a leading independent producer of exclusively renewable energy, has instructed Nidec, a provider of battery energy storage solutions, to start work on Storen Power Reserve at the end of December 2022.

Located in the municipality of Ragunda, around 100 km from the city of Östersund, the 40 MW / 40 MWh lithium-ion battery will be connected to E.ON's 130 kV transmission line. Commissioning is scheduled for the first half of 2024.

The battery will provide Svenska Kraftnät, the Swedish transmission grid operator, with system services including Frequency Containment Reserve services.

In addition to Storen Power Reserve (40 MW / 40 MWh), Neoen's portfolio of assets in Sweden includes the Storbrännkullen wind farm (57.4 MW - currently under construction) and the future Hultsfred solar power plant (90 MWp - construction scheduled for the second half of 2023).
