Keith Greener Grid Park –Energy Storage Public Consultation

Thank you for attending our public consultation for Keith Greener Grid Park – Energy Storage.

Our proposed project will connect to the existing Keith Greener Grid Park, next to Keith Substation and in an area of high wind generation and export.

This Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project would enhance the vital work already being done in the Keith Greener Grid Park, by increasing the amount of renewable energy consumers can utilise.

Why do we need Greener Grid Parks?

Greener Grid Parks are pioneering projects which help achieve zero carbon emissions.

As we move towards a zero carbon world we need to keep the power network stable as gas and coal units close.

Greener Grid Parks comprise of zero carbon technologies which stabilise the grid, allowing more renewable energy to be transmitted through the network.

Innovative technologies like BESS, capture and store energy for future use.

Greener Grid Parks provide zero carbon stablility so we can utilise as much renewable energy as possible.

Community Opportunities

We look forward to discussing with you the different ways that our projects bring positive benefits. We were the first to offer community benefit funds for grid stability projects, and we would like to hear your ideas for worthwhile local projects. We are committed to setting up a Community Benefit Fund of £20,000 per annum. Our community benefit funds are dedicated to projects that help accelerate the transition to a low carbon society.

About Keith Greener Grid Park –Energy Storage

Keith is an excellent site location for a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) because:

It will connect to the existing Keith Greener Grid Park and is next to Keith Substation meaning the cable connection is short and less intrusive

There will be low impacts on flooding, cultural heritage and ecology

There is existing roads infrastructure for access

It is located in an area of high wind generation and export

Keith Greener Grid Park – Energy Storage: If planning permission is granted, we estimate the project will be operational by 2027.
