Latvia develops energy storage projects

Latvia has taken a significant step towards a greener future with the commissioning of its first utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS). The 10MW/20MWh BESS, located in Targale, Ventspils region, is integrated with the 58.8MW Targale Wind Park. Battery storage systems are a key element in the energy transition, since they can store excess renewable energy and make it available when it is needed most. As a battery storage pioneer, RWE develops, builds and operates innovative and competitive large battery storage systems as well as onshore and solar-hybrid projects in Europe, Australia ...
