Europe’s Largest Battery Goes Live in Blackhillock, Scotland

UK-based Zenobē has launched Europe’s largest battery site at Blackhillock, Scotland, with an initial capacity of 200MW, expanding to 300MW. The site is the world’s first to provide Stability Services, addressing grid congestion from offshore wind farms. This project is expected to lower consumer bills by over £170 million over 15 years and prevent approximately 2.6 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions. Zenobē partnered with Wärtsilä, EDF Wholesale Market Services, and Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks for this pioneering project.
