co-located solar storage

SSE Renewables has begun a public consultation for its proposed 21MWp solar photovoltaic (PV) array and 10MW/2hr battery energy storage system (BESS) facility in Ireland.

RWE has unveiled plans for an up to 600MW solar development on land in south Yorkshire and north Lincolnshire.

Canadian Solar has completed the sale of two fully-permitted solar and battery energy storage projects to Gresham House.
