Brussels (Brussels Morning) – ENGIE is constructing a massive Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Vilvoorde, Belgium, with 200 MW capacity and 800 MWh storage, aiming to support 96,000 households with renewable energy solutions. The 800 MWh installation, composed of 320 lithium-ion battery modules, is now fully connected to the grid. Remarkably, ENGIE finished the project in about 16 months, two months ahead. . Auction in T-1 and T-4 up to 2024, plus T-2 as from 2025. Technology agnostic (derating factor). Volume fixed every year by Belgian Authorities based on TSO recommendation. For BESS, CRM represent between 10 to 20% of the revenue. Complex. . French state-backed utility Engie has broken ground on the second of the battery energy storage systems (BESS) awarded it by Belgian grid operator Elia under a national plan to procure more grid electricity. This milestone follows the project's construction permit in July 2023 and its selection for capacity remuneration in October 2023.
