- mtu EnergyPack system with 24 megawatt hours to balance out volatile power generation from renewable energies and increase security of supply
- Commissioning of the storage system based on lithium-ion technology in the first quarter of 2025
Rolls-Royce is supplying an mtu battery energy storage system with an output of 12 megawatts and a storage capacity of 24 megawatt hours to Encavis AG. The battery system will support the Hamburg-based electricity producer in trading the electrical energy generated by German wind and solar parks by, among other things, balancing out fluctuations in generation and increasing security of supply. Rolls-Royce will supply and install the energy storage system on a turnkey basis. It is expected to go into operation in the first quarter of 2025.
Rolls-Royce has also been contracted to provide construction services, installation and 10 years of maintenance
The order comprises a large-scale mtu EnergyPack QG storage system with a total of 72 battery cabinets and the intelligent mtu EnergetIQ control platform, which ensures optimum performance and flexibility. Rolls-Royce has already supported Encavis in the project development for the battery energy storage systems and, in addition to the delivery, is also responsible for the construction work, the complete installation and the provision of all grid connection components for the energy storage system. In addition, there is a long-term value care agreement (VCA) for 10 years, which comes with extensive guarantees: Among other things, the respective capacity value and efficiency of the plant are guaranteed over the entire term.
