The UK is a global leader in the deployment of grid-scale BESS, and was among the first countries to actively pursue BESS investments. The island has limited interconnection capacity and a heavy reliance on wind energy, which is why it needs BESS to ensure stability in its electricity system. The electricity system in the UK is rapidly evolving.
In related news, in England, Balance Power has secured planning approval from the UK government for its planned 49.5 MW/99 MWh Hinckley BESS project in south-west Leicestershire. The project is expected to prevent around 9,000 t/y of CO 2 emissions.
From October 2025 the BESS will provide reactive power absorption capability for the local area. In the north of England, a Statkraft UK BESS asset in Yorkshire is expected to provide voltage services from April 2026, while SSE Renewables’ 320 MW/ 640 MWh Monk Fryston BESS in Selby, North Yorkshire, is expected to join in early 2027.
