Infranity, backed by Generali, has agreed to invest in Omnes’ Irish solar-and-storage platform, Power Capital Renewable Energy (PCRE). This investment will provide fresh equity to a developer-operator with hundreds of megawatts either operating or under construction, and nearly 1 GW ready to begin.Is SSE Renewables launching a 'sunny south east' project in Ireland?Leading renewable energy operator and developer SSE Renewables is taking its first steps into solar energy generation and associated battery storage in Ireland, with plans to develop a co-located project at its existing operational wind farm asset in the country’s ‘Sunny South East’.
Why is battery storage important in Ireland?This showcases the growing capacity of Ireland’s energy storage systems and their pivotal role in ensuring energy supply during times of peak demand. Battery storage is becoming increasingly essential in managing the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources and reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.
How does electricity storage work in Ireland?For context, peak demand on Ireland’s electricity system is approximately 5.5 GW. Electricity storage systems such as utility-scale battery projects also provide essential backup services to the grid that help to keep the electricity supply secure, reduces carbon emissions and ultimately reduces costs to the consumer.
How many solar and battery energy storage systems does PCRE have?Fast-forward to 2024 and PCRE has more than 3.9 GW of solar and battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Ireland, with a view to expanding further into Europe and the United States.
What is Ireland's highest-ever battery discharge from grid-scale storage?On March 14th, Ireland recorded its highest-ever level of battery discharge from grid-scale storage, with nearly 300 MW of power being discharged at peak. This showcases the growing capacity of Ireland’s energy storage systems and their pivotal role in ensuring energy supply during times of peak demand.
Is PCRE taking advantage of Ireland's challenging environment for solar?Joint CEO and co-founder Justin Brown told pv magazine that despite Ireland’s challenging environment for solar, the company sees a lot of opportunity and is taking full advantage. PCRE, which operates this solar farm in County Wexford, Ireland, supplies power through agreements with Microsoft and Google. Image: PCRE From pv magazine 12/24-01
