Contact Us6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Switzerland Zurich 100 billion energy storage project”
What is the future of electricity storage in Switzerland?
One important pillar of this strategy is the further development of electricity storage capacity in Switzerland. In the next years, three large-scale pumped hydro storage power plants will be connected to the grid. The first, the Limmern pumped storage plant (1 GW), should become operational in 2016.
How will a large-scale storage system help the Swiss power grid?
In this way, the system will help to stabilise the Swiss power grid. With this large-scale storage system, we are making a decisive contribution to the implementation of Switzerland's Energy Strategy 2050, which aims to convert 100 per cent of its energy supply to renewable energies by 2050.
Where in Switzerland will Primeo energy install a battery storage system?
In Kappel, in the canton of Solothurn, we will install one of the largest battery storage systems in Switzerland with a total capacity of 65 megawatt hours. Primeo Energie will use the stand-alone storage system to make energy more flexible and store electricity temporarily and withdraw it again when it is needed.
Does Switzerland's new large-scale battery support the Energy Strategy 2050?
The new large-scale battery for Switzerland in Kappel supports the Energy Strategy 2050 and supports renewable energies.
How will Primeo energy help the Swiss power grid?
Primeo Energie will use the stand-alone storage system to make energy more flexible and store electricity temporarily and withdraw it again when it is needed. In this way, the system will help to stabilise the Swiss power grid.
Will a large battery storage system help stabilise the power grid?
Frederik Süllwald, our Head of Global Sales & Key Account Management, explains: ' Large battery storage systems will play an increasingly important role in stabilising the power grid in the future. Our stand-alone storage system will help to
