Enefit to Triple Its Battery Storage Capacity

Enefit, the electricity business of Eesti Energia, is expanding its energy storage portfolio by building three new battery storage systems next to its wind farms in Lithuania. The new systems will have a combined capacity of 46 megawatts (MW) and 184 megawatt-hours (MWh). Once completed, Enefit’s storage portfolio will grow from the current 29 MW to 75 MW, strengthening the company’s position in the Baltic energy storage market.

“Energy storage is a key component of the modern energy system. Battery solutions help balance wind and solar generation, support grid stability, and mitigate high price peaks,” said Donatas Celešius, Member of the Management Board of Enefit and Head of Business Development. “Storage solutions also increase the value of our existing production assets and strengthen our integrated generation portfolio as a whole.”
