“Our Northern Ireland team has now secured consent for almost 400 MW of battery energy storage capacity, 50 MW of which is operational, that will support the grid and allow for more renewable generation,” said Julia Badeda, ABO Energy’s General Manager of Hybrid Energy Systems & Storage.

The UK business of German renewables developer ABO Energy has received the required planning approval for two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in Northern Ireland with a combined capacity of 335 MW/670 MWh, it announced on Wednesday.
Short answer: yes. Domestic battery storage without renewables can still benefit you and the grid. This is especially true for those on smart tariffs; charge your battery during cheaper off-peak hours and discharge during more expensive peak hours, cutting your bills and reducing strain on the grid during peak energy use times.
GivEnergy home batteries will charge and discharge intelligently by default, taking advantage of cheaper energy rates. However, you can also take a more hands-on approach by setting schedules and timers around your energy usage and lifestyle. You can do this through the energy monitoring software: portal and app.
In short, battery storage in your home can bring the following benefits: Let’s say your home has solar panels on the roof or even a wind turbine in the back garden. Without battery storage, a lot of the energy you generate will go to waste.
On average, this works out at just under 5kWh per day. Mark has neither the financial nor practical means to install renewable technology. However, he can use a home storage battery to take advantage of cheaper off-peak electricity rates, perhaps with the likes of the Octopus Flux tariff. Due to its compact size, Mark opts for the Giv-Bat 2.6kWh.
