Sungrow to Supply 260MWh Battery Storage to Penso Power and BW ESS in UK

Sungrow will supply Penso Power and BW ESS with the equipment for the fully consented 100 MW / 260 MWh project in Bramley, Hampshire.

This is another energy storage system (ESS) collaboration between Sungrow and Penso Power, with Sungrow recognised as a forerunner in the industry.

Bramley is an important project in Penso Power and BW ESS's development partnership and is expected to play a significant role in supporting UK energy security and ensuring the resilience of the electricity system. Once operational in 2024, it is set to participate in grid balancing and ancillary services and wholesale energy trading, essential to the grid’s security.

Sungrow will supply the project with the latest PowerTitan 2.0 liquid cooled energy storage system, in which the power conversion system and battery are integrated into one 20Ft container. A key benefit of choosing Sungrow as a supplier is the optimised CAPEX and OPEX cost.

James Wu, Senior Vice President of Sungrow said “As an industry leader in utility storage, Sungrow welcomes the opportunity to work with Penso Power and BW ESS on this important energy project for the UK. We previously collaborated with Penso Power on their 100 MW Minety battery energy storage system in 2019 and are proud to supply the new Bramley project - the first of several projects with 260MWh battery storage in the UK. We look forward to collaborating further with Penso Power on their global project pipeline, including Australia and Italy.”

Richard Thwaites, CEO of Penso Power commented “Penso Power is pleased to be working with Sungrow on this important project. We consider Sungrow to be a technology leader in the energy storage field and we have been particularly impressed by the Sungrow energy storage product and the advantages that it offers.”
