Edinburgh-based flexible energy firm Flexitricity and Bristol-based renewable energy investment company Thrive Renewables have entered into an optimisation agreement for a 20 megawatt (MW) battery energy storage system (BESS).
The deal covers Thrive’s Feeder Road site in its home city and kickstarts a collaboration between the two business.
The lithium-ion BESS site will be monitored from Flexitricity’s control room in Edinburgh. The asset will operate across multiple markets, including frequency response, wholesale traded power, the balancing mechanism and emerging flexibility services.
