Wind power plants equipped with energy storage systems

Since wind conditions are not constant, it is crucial to develop hybrid power plants that combine wind energy with storage systems. These technologies allow wind turbines to be directly coupled with energy storage systems, efficiently storing excess wind power for later use. [pdf]

Lithuanian Power Plant Energy Storage Company

Energy Cells Lithuania (an EPSO-G company), is deploying a 200 MW/200 MWh portfolio of energy storage projects to ensure effective active power reserve for reliable and stable operation of Lithuania’s electricity transmission system. [pdf]

FAQS about Lithuanian Power Plant Energy Storage Company

Which power plant provides energy storage in Lithuania?

Kruonis Pumped Storage Plant provides energy storage, averaging electrical demand throughout the day. The pumped storage plant has a capacity of 900 MW (4 units, 225 MW each). Kaunas Hydroelectric Power Plant has 100 MW of capacity and supplies about 3% of the electrical demand in Lithuania.

Why does Lithuania need a pumped storage plant?

According to Ignitis Gamyba, the project ensures 94% of the total energy reserves for Lithuania necessary during emergencies. A decision to develop a thermal power plant was taken in April 1960. Subsequently, the need for a pumped storage plant was recognised while planning the construction of a future nuclear plant.

How will Lithuania achieve the instantaneous electricity reserve of Isolated mode?

The instantaneous electricity reserve of isolated mode for Lithuania will be ensured by theelectricity storage facilities system with the 200 megawatts (MW) and 200 megawatt-hours (MWh) capacity. If needed, the high-capacity reserve storage facilities will start supplying power immediately – within 1 second.
