The flagship battery storage project commenced operations on February 1, only days before cutting ties with the Russian power grid. Estonian state-owned energy company Eesti Energia has inaugurated the nation's largest battery energy storage facility at the Auvere industrial complex in Ida-Viru County.
Estonia's government approved an energy development plan in 2009, and officials in 2011 said they wanted a nuclear power plant operating by 2023.
The project was delivered by energy solutions system integrator Diotech Group, which won Eesti Energia's international tender in 2023. It was supplied with battery technology from LG Energy Solution. Installation and connection work were carried out by Enefit Solutions.
The country is home to the Narva Power Plants, part of a power generation complex in and near Narva, which is near the Russian border. The complex includes the world's two largest oil shale-fired thermal power plants, Eesti Power Plant (Eesti Elektrijaam) and Balti Power Plant (Balti Elektrijaam).
