Overview
- Statkraft inaugurated a PV–battery hybrid in Zerbst combining a 46.4 MW solar park with a 16 MW storage system that has been feeding the grid since October and can supply roughly 14,000 households.
- LEAG and Fluence detailed the Jänschwalde project in Brandenburg at 1 GW/4 GWh, with Siemens providing 380 kV switchgear, construction targeted for May–June 2026 and operation expected by late 2027 or early 2028.
- Enni’s supervisory board approved about €14 million for a second large battery in Neukirchen-Vluyn using 12 containers for 24 MW/60 MWh, with a general contractor to be selected by December and grid connection aimed for early 2027.
- Enni’s first storage project in Moers has received its 12 battery containers and is slated to begin feeding electricity into the public grid from January.
- Developers describe these batteries as tools to stabilize the power system and ease local connection limits, with other large units such as a 714 MWh plant in Förderstedt highlighting the broader national build-out.
