A grid-forming battery energy storage system of 3 MW was put into trial operation at the Vatopedi monastery on Mount Athos. The project is part of the green energy transition of the monastic republic in northern Greece. The Sacred Patriarchal and Stavopegial Monastery of Vatopedi, founded in the 10th century, has a microgrid. Engineering, procurement […]
Battery energy storage is becoming increasingly central to the energy transition in Southeast Europe and beyond, thanks to its key role in enabling renewables integration while ensuring grid flexibility and resilience. However, as battery energy storage systems (BESS) become more advanced and technologically complex, the risks involved exceed those of traditional renewable energy projects, making […]
As part of its decarbonization efforts, Romanian hydrocarbons producer OMV Petrom is strengthening its presence in neighboring Bulgaria. It agreed to buy 50% of the Gabare solar power project, of 400 MW, from its developer Enery Element. The solar power investment frenzy in most of Southeastern Europe is continuing despite rising curtailments and the frequent […]
MOL’s 37.4 MW solar power plant with a battery energy storage system (BESS) of 40 MWh will contribute to the energy independence of its oil and gas complex in southern Hungary. Alteo is the contractor building the facility. The battery segment has received grants totaling EUR 20.5 million. MOL Group marked the start of construction […]
MET Group installed a battery energy storage system of 40 MW and a two-hour duration at its gas power plant Dunamenti near Budapest. The company said it is the largest BESS in Hungary. Hungary’s largest standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) has been inaugurated today. MET Group put into operation a facility of 40 MW […]
A ground-mounted solar power plant of 466 kW started generating electricity on a regular basis at Slovenian state-owned gas power plant Termoelektrarna Brestanica (TEB). GEN-I’s subsidiary GEN-I Sonce installed a photovoltaic system, as the contractor, at the gas power plant run by fellow GEN Group member Termoelektrarna Brestanica (TEB). The 466 kW ground-mounted solar power […]
TotalEnergies is betting big on the solar power market in Cyprus. It won the environmental approval for a photovoltaic park of 100 MW in peak capacity, with energy storage. It intends to build it in an area previously designated for a golf course. France-based TotalEnergies is an oil supermajor, but also one of the world’s […]
The technological solutions needed to increase the share of renewable sources in Southeast Europe are already available and accessible, according to Maja Turković, Senior Vice President of CWP Europe. Countries in the region now need to adopt regulations to boost the deployment of battery storage and hybrid power plants, she said on the sidelines of […]
Slovenian company Soške elektrarne Nova Gorica (SENG) commissioned its first solar power plant – Kanalski Vrh. The facility is at its Avče pumped storage hydropower plant, the only one in the country. Surfaces around large infrastructure such as railways are convenient for photovoltaics as there are very few options for the utilization of such sites. […]
Investments in wind power in Turkey are on an upward trajectory – this year they are expected to surpass USD 1.5 billion, translating to 1.5 GW of new capacity, President of the Turkish Wind Energy Association (TÜREB) Ibrahim Erden estimated. Among other factors, the country has an extensive manufacturing base for the equipment. Several major […]
