6 FAQs about [Battery to grid operating point Finland]

Can a large battery storage facility be built in Finland?

Neoen, a French company, has built a 30-megawatt Power Reserve One lithium-ion battery facility in Yllikkälä near Lappeenranta. The facility has an energy capacity of 30 MWh. “Neoen appreciates the solution-oriented approach in Finland. They contacted us in autumn 2019 to enquire about a quick connection for a large battery storage facility.

How much does Fingrid charge for energy storage?

The main grid service fees for grid energy storage consist only of fees for input (EUR 0.90/MWh) and output (EUR 0.60/MWh) to and from the main grid. Fingrid does not levy any fixed charges. Industrial operators are also showing increasing interest in investing in clean electricity generation and storage in Finland.

How much does it cost to connect a battery to Fingrid?

If the customer’s battery is connected directly to a Fingrid transmission line, we charge the same EUR 600,000 fee because it takes up transmission capacity on the main grid transmission line. Fingrid can build connections to transmission lines in a few months,” Reilander says.

What is grid energy storage?

Grid energy storage offsets brief generation shortfalls and enables rapid adjustments. “Grid energy storage can have many uses. It plays an important role as a reserve for the power system, as batteries can provide faster regulating power than a conventional power plant. Operators such as wind power companies sell electricity to their customers.

Do batteries support the operation of the power system?

Batteries of various sizes support the operation of the power system. Finland currently has about 50 megawatts of grid energy storage capacity. Flexibility is required to ensure that the power system is able to maintain a balance between generation and consumption as renewable forms of energy become more prevalent.

How long does it take Fingrid to build a transmission line?

Fingrid can build connections to transmission lines in a few months,” Reilander says. The main grid service fees for grid energy storage consist only of fees for input (EUR 0.90/MWh) and output (EUR 0.60/MWh) to and from the main grid. Fingrid does not levy any fixed charges.
