ESB Networks described the project as a “great achievement for battery storage” in Ireland. Battery energy storage systems, often referred to as Bess, are regarded as a vital part of the Ireland’s fledgling renewable energy sector and demand for them has never been higher.
The Kylemore Battery Energy Storage System in Dublin went into operation in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting storage. The South Wall Battery Energy Storage System went live in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting energy storage.
We currently have more than 300MWs of battery storage capacity in operation in Ireland, making it one of the largest battery portfolios in Europe. We plan to develop a pipeline of large scale battery projects, as well as additional renewable enabling technologies.
At Energy Storage Ireland 2025, the message was clear: energy storage is central to a stable, low-carbon grid, and while short-duration battery systems (BESS) are available, long-duration storage (LDES) supply is in its infancy, however ESBN has a structure to enable LDES rollout in Ireland. The technology is advancing fast.
