The four locations that have been identified and where lease agreements have now been signed are located in bidding zone two and three (SE2 and SE3) close to identified grid connection. All of the projects have ongoing electricity grid connection applications and will be further developed during the spring by JDA Renewables as the responsible developer in collaboration with investors:
Munga – Västerås, Västmanland (SE3)
Our largest project, with a capacity of 310 MW, which is expected to be commissioned by the end of 2028.
Starfors – Heby, Uppsala (SE3)
Battery storage with a capacity of 50 or 80 MW. Expected to be operational in 2028, depending on the development of regional and national grids.
Domsjö – Örnsköldsvik, Västernorrland (SE2)
With a capacity of 6 MW this battery storage facility is expected to be operational in 2027.
Nätrafors – Örnsköldsvik, Västernorrland (SE2)
A battery storage facility with a capacity of 12 MW that is expected to be operational in 2027.
Work is now continuing with further planning, grid connection and permit processes before these sites can contribute to grid stability and balance, both locally and for the Swedish electricity grid as a whole.
– We have had an extra focus on battery storage in our project portfolio and are now seeing the results of that work by being able to initiate the development of four thoroughly investigated BESS sites. We are proud to present the projects as a result of the work we have put into our project portfolio and are happy to say that more is coming,” says David Åhs, CEO.
