Rabbalshede Kraft, headquartered in Swedan, has commissioned a 20 MW / 20 MWh Battery Energy Storage unit at its existing 46.2 MW Femstenaberg wind farm in southern Sweden, creating the company’s first fully integrated energy park.
The facility stores excess power during high-wind periods and supplies electricity when demand rises, while also providing balancing and frequency regulation services to the Swedish grid, according to the company.
The company said, the hybrid system will enable optimised production and support system flexibility.
The company plans to expand the development of fully integrated renewable energy parks that combine power generation with battery storage, contributing to Sweden’s transition toward a fossil-free and resilient energy system.
“This is a milestone for Rabbalshede Kraft and for Sweden’s energy supply,” said Tobias Lundberg, part of Business Development at Rabbalshede Kraft.
“With our first energy park, we are showcasing what the future of power generation looks like — where storage, wind, and eventually solar work together to create a robust, fully renewable system that can deliver sustainable energy when it is needed most,” said Lundberg.
